The Haunting of Hill House

Terrible and terrifying, but terrific. This is a frightening redefinition of horror for the modern era, blending psychological narration with terrifying cinematics. The Haunting of Hill House anchors its scares in real human trauma, making each haunting metaphorical in grief, guilt, and scars that we carry. Our trepidation lies in its ability to make you fear both what you can't see and what you've already buried deep within yourself. For a genre often obsessed with jumpscares, Hill House opts for something far more unsettling: a quiet, lingering dread that multiplies over time, corroding into every corner of its story. Our ghosts may be emotional as well as physical, but that's what unleashes this series as the most impressive form of horror television today.
