The Haunting of Hill House season 2 release date, cast and plot

There’s only one bad part about anthologies, and that’s having to wait to see what the new season is about and where it takes place. Haunting fans don’t have to wait any longer, though, as it’s already been said that Bly Manor will be loosely based on Henry James’ 1898 horror novella The Turn of the Screw. The novella takes place at Bly, a fictional country house in England. To the surprise of no one, the mansion is haunted. If you can believe it, as we’re still trembling from season 1, The Haunting of Bly Manor is supposed to be even scarier than The Haunting of Hill House. 

“We’re looking at all the ghost stories of Henry James as the jumping-off point for the season, so it very much is a whole new deal,” Flanagan told Birth.Movies.Death. “It’s a cool way to expand on some of the things I loved about season one, but within the framework of a new story, without having to be restrained by the decisions we made last time. For Henry James fans, it’s going to be pretty wild, and for people who aren’t familiar with his work, it’s going to be unbelievably scary. I already think it’s much scarier than season one, so I’m very excited about it.”

Bly Manor can’t come soon enough. Be sure to bookmark this page, as more Haunting news will be added as it’s made available.
