However, I missed the early hype train surrounding the series and did not watch it until 2021.

Only when I saw Flanagan’sMidnight Massdid I realize I had to watch everything else he had created.

Over the years, I have loved everyNetflix show and movie Mike Flanagan has helmed, includingThe Midnight Club.

I initially brushed off this Mandela effect event, but I recently realized I was not alone.

Walker also mentions that the ghost’s mouth had dropped open.

Although skeptical, Steven chooses to stay in Carl’s room for the night.

Loosely based on Shirley Jackson’s novel of the same name, The Haunting of Hill House follows the Crain family’s experience in their beautiful - and deadly - home. With a story told using two timelines simultaneously, The Haunting of Hill House chronicles both the haunting itself, and the lasting effect it had on the Crain children as they struggle through adulthood decades later. Directed by Mike Flanagan as the first entry in his Haunting anthology, The Haunting of Hill House features a large ensemble cast including Michiel Huisman, Elizabeth Reaser, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Kate Siegel, Victoria Pedretti, Carla Gugino, and Henry Thomas.

Many scenes in The Haunting Of Hill House are absolutely terrifying.

Yet the Netflix series also featured a lot of sweet moments.

All this while, my mind was merely filling in gaps with imagined details.

Mike Flanagan confirmed that he never filmed the scene and that it was only meant to be a monologue.

“No, none of that was ever filmed - its just a monologue.

Sounds like Mandela effect for sure,“he said.

In many ways, Luke seems similar to how Mrs. Walker had described her husband’s ghost.
