*spoilers for The Haunting of Hill House*

During the summer of 92’, a grand, gothic mansion opens its doors for an unsuspecting family, welcoming them to their new home: Hill House.

In order to sell the house, Hugh and Olivia Crain move in with their five young children so they can renovate it.

The Crains didn’t know it yet, but this house was going to make her family famous beyond their wildest dreams.

….and not all of them were going to survive this summer.

Twenty-six years later, the Crains remain mentally scarred by the horrifying events that happened in their previous summer home. All of them became distant with each other and turned to self-destructive ways to overcome the bad memories. And middle child Theo was no exception.

Back when she was a preteen, Theo was very observant about the effects this mansion had on her family. The caretakers were hiding something from them. Her siblings were having night terrors. They kept seeing strange people appearing and disappearing. It wasn’t even safe to have a pet in this place. Not to mention, her mother’s change in behavior was especially unsettling to her. Needing some space from everyone, Theo regularly spends time in the mansion’s dance studio. Being alone and dancing to the rhythm gives her a moment of ….

What do you mean “what dance studio?”

The one here in the house. You’ve never seen it?

Forget it. Moving on.

…Outside of the dance studio, whenever she stepped in Hill House, Theo always felt her body freezing for no reason. How odd she must’ve felt having to wear sweaters during the summer. There was something about her that made her very sensitive to the dark energy in Hill House. Luckily, Olivia was there to answer that.

It’s a special curse gift that’s been passed down to her from her mother, her grandmother, and so forth. With one touch, she can sense the emotions of people and the history behind objects. Remaining dormant for years, these powers were awaken by the supernatural energy within Hill House. But these constant visions she’s having is keeping her awake on all times. So, her mother gives her a special pair of gloves that can negate her powers. They both agree to “conceal, don’t’ feel” and now the gloves remain a permanent fashion accessory for Theo.

In the present, physical touch became a complicated issue for Theodora. Because of the setbacks of her power, she developed an avoidance to forming emotional attachment to others, including family members and romantic partners. There are some things she doesn’t want to know about people, both living and the dead. Case in point, when she used her touch on someone that she loved and knew her whole life, Theo experienced something so shattering that it left her in a state of emotional numbness. All she could feel was nothing and she was willing to do anything to feel alive again. The added stress from another family tragedy certainly wasn’t helping the issue. Dealing with the two self-righteous older siblings, a drug-addicted younger brother, and an absentee father could push anyone to their breaking point.

Yet underneath her cold and aloof exterior, lies a passionate and caring soul. These traits, along with her unique gift, are the reason behind her high success rate with connecting with her patients in order to help them. It makes it darkly ironic that she never came to terms with her own childhood scars. Only during sessions and house calls is when the gloves come off.

God forbid she finds out you hurt a child. SHE WILL KNOW. And you won’t get away with it!

Now, Theo needs to hold onto that inner strength more than ever as the family is forced to return to the house that made home a living hell!

Unfortunately the odds were more in the house’ favor. No winners. No losers. Let’s just say that both sides agreed on a compromise.

Hill House still stands. But so do the Crains (what’s left of them of course).

It will be a long, difficult road ahead for the Crain clan for them to sort out all their issues, especially after new secrets have been revealed to them. They need each other more than ever and can’t take one another for granted ever again.

Sooner or later, every family has to come to terms with the ghosts from their pasts.

hill house really fucked me up—like how they moved in and olivia said, ‘you guys go on without me’ and them being soulmates, hugh was all like ‘how could we?’ but then on their last night they literally had to go on without her and spend the rest of their lives that way wHO ALLOWED THIS

Fog shrouded the house and its hills, making all the normal early morning sounds seem distant and unreal. Hidden among the bird song and hum of cars traveling to and from the nearby town, there was another sound - the wheezing of a different kind of vehicle as it materialized.

Engines thudded and the light on top of the police box dimmed as the TARDIS landed in the forest. The door opened and a blonde young man in a cricketing outfit hurried out. “Let’s see,” the Fifth Doctor held up a small device that beeped periodically. He turned slowly in place until the sound became stronger. “This seems to be the direction.” He glanced impatiently behind him before striding forward. “Tegan? Nyssa? Hurry up, I don’t want to lose the trace.”

Idk why but I’ve got a feeling that everyone hating on Steve and Shirley Crain is definitely not an eldest sibling.

[shadowsofmoonracer]

Prompt: Major Character Death (@badthingshappenbingo)

Fandom: The Haunting Of Hill House

Summary:

“Let them go.” He repeats, begging, praying that it would be enough.

His mother smiles at him, all sharp edges and lips stretched too wide.

“You’ll stay with me?” she asks.

He nods, and she draws him in.

Steve closes his eyes.

He feels icy fingers against his back, barely touching but pushing all the same, and he allows his mother to pull him forward.

Or,

Things go differently at the Hill House.

[flanaganfilm]

hi mike, saw someone say your ask box was open and i came running! have you ever had any ideas as to how the crain family would be getting on now a few years later/what they're doing? it's always in the back of my mind wondering if creators also wonder about those sort of things themselves once their project has ended. thanks so much & hope you have a great day!

I do think about that. Quite a lot, actually.

The Crains took on lives of their own for me. I'd never written long form before, so it was the first time I lived with the same characters for that long, and for such extended arcs. Here's where I think they are, a few years later:

Shirley: I think that Shirley and her husband overcame her disclosure of infidelity. She'd been closed off for so long, after the series ended I think she found some peace in her life and opened herself up to her marriage. I think she also began to find kindness again. They ran the funeral home together, but Shirley found purpose in helping people handle grief and loss with empathy and kindness. Her oldest would be just about ready to start college now, and I think that would have her looking back and realizing that she always remembered her childhood as seemingly endless... but now she sees just how fast it truly goes by.

Luke: Luke stayed sober. He's six years into it now, and it's gone so well that he's also become a sponsor. That doesn't mean he's immune to the struggle, far from it. He still walks up to that edge sometimes. Oddly, it's in those moments that the "Twin Thing" kicks in... and he feels an inexplicable and complete sense of love. He knows that's Nell's, and that always pulls him back from the brink. He never did find Joey, or find out what happened to her. And sometimes he still wakes up with nightmares that he's on the floor of the Red Room, or that Joey visits him with her runny-egg eyes. But no matter how hard it gets, he feels what Nell feels for him... and that always pulls him through.

Theo: Theo and Trish got married, and moved far away from New England. They currently live in Portland. She still works with children, but enjoys a much smaller patient pool. She specializes in the kids who are hardest to reach, and she's sought after for her unique and uncanny ability to connect with them. She doesn't wear gloves anymore, but she still avoids the very crowded places. She and Trish take long hikes, grow their own pot, and travel frequently and spontaneously. They're considering a surrogate... and if it's a girl, they're going to name her Eleanor.

Steven: Steve and Leigh have two kids, and are thinking they might stop there. He never wrote about what happened at Hill House, but he still writes. Science fiction. Leigh recommended the genre as a way for him to focus on the future, not the past. He likes it a lot. It's pulpy, but it's earnest. He maintains Hill House, as it is his responsibility, but he doesn't enter the property beyond the gates. He has a rotating collection of people service the property itself, always during the day, and only for a few hours at a time.

Hill House stands quietly and silently in the hills. There is something different about it. Still the same energy, but without the malice. Steve assumes this is because of Hugh, Nellie and Olivia, who maybe curb the most malicious energies of the house from within. While shadows still walk in the windows at night, there are no living souls there to see them. Mostly, Steven imagines the spirits inside spend most of their days sleeping. And if they cannot sleep, he imagines Mrs. Dudley singing softly to them on the wind.

There is grief, for all of them. There are nightmares. Horrible dreams of moldy rooms and phantom hands. They meet twice a year, usually without spouses, to catch up and raise a glass to Nell, and their parents. There is a lot of healing still to do, a lot of therapy, a lot of introspection. But there is peace, too. There is love. There is forgiveness.

Hill House/Bly Manor: Families, both blood and found.

Both Hill House and Bly Manor go into the idea of families, specifically the idea of broken family, but its interesting the ways in which they split. Hill House seems to take the tack that family is, for lack of a better word, inevitable. The Crains are bound together by their history with the house every inch as much as the Hills were, and do we really think it was any better?

Because I’m not sure. Every other Hill House tattoo is that “The rest is confetti” line which I certainly would not have tattooed on myself if I had to pick a line, but whatever. Let’s look at that whole thing.

“I loved you completely. And you loved me the same. That’s all. The rest is confetti.”

MAN, are Flanagan and I in disagreement here.

Don’t get me wrong, I agree with Nell when Steven apologizes and Nell tells him it wouldn’t have changed anything. I agree with her when she reassures Shirley that she answered the phone so many times. I’m with you there. But “I loved you completely?” Hm.

I think what we come down to here is what does it mean to love someone? Because I don’t know that I think Nell’s actions toward them were very loving--trying to force Theo into seeing her dead husband, barging in on Steven’s book reading and trying to tear him down in front of his audience, etc. And we can say, “Well, she was unstable” and yes that can be an explanation, but is it an excuse?

And Steven telling her she’s out of her mind, Shirley saying she doesn’t have time for Nell’s shit, Theo refusing to talk to her, are those actions of love? DOn’t get me wrong, I actually do not hold it against any of the three of them. I think sometimes in our families we have to lay down a hard boundary, and one of my very few problems with Hill House are how I feel it makes Nell a complete victim, and doesn’t really make it easy for you to empathize with her siblings for having enough.

But it comes down to, for me: Is love a feeling, or a verb?

To me, it wouldn’t even be wrong of her to say, ‘You loved me as best you could. And I loved you the same.” Would have hit with me so much better, but that word, completely. I am not one of those people on the internet who has a strange visceral reaction to the idea of loving the family you’re born into, but neither am I comfortable with the fiction that the family you’re born into is some binder of complete love.

I don’t think any of them acted with complete love. And I don’t believe that the interactions we have on the day to day are as ephemeral or as insignificant as confetti. I think love is something you do, not something you feel. I can be okay with that being a cultural/social difference between me and Flanagan, and so we can’t really understand each other that way, but it leaves that whole little speech ho0llow for me.

Mike Flanagan has spoken about how he changed the ending, and how after spending so much time with the Crains, he couldn’t not give them a happy ending, but...

Is the ending of Hill House happy? Nell, trapped with a woman who tried to kill her, and Hugh made to essentially give himself up in the service of the house, Steven still yet tied to it? The Dudleys unable to move forward ever from the moment of their childrens’ death, trapping themselves in the same place that killed their children? Is this maybe saying something about family, and how it traps us? I mean the idea that Steven must leave the family trauma as a monument, trauma that he did not choose but was chosen for him by his parents? That he’s never allowed to destroy the things that destroyed him and his, because other people need his trauma kept intact? Boy, that is BLEAK AS FUCK.

Did Flanagan plan it this way, or am I taking it this way because of my borderline compulsive inability to trust in a happy ending? I don’t know we report, you decide, but I will say I don’t think my reading of it is atextual. Is Family a gift? Or is it a chain?

It’s tough to put it up against Bly Manor because Bly is SO disgorganized. The trouble with Bly isn’t that Flanagan walked away from it emotionally--I don’t give a fuck--but that he didn’t even love it enough to give it to one person. Or netflix didn’t love it enough I dunno. What makes Hill House work is it has one very strong thesis, and whether you agree or disagree with it, it’s very much a piece with internal consistency and drive. Even in my strongest moments of disagreement, I find it masterfully done.

Bly, on the other hand, I believe has every episode written by someone different. My god. Holy hell. How can a horror story carry magnificent weight, when all captains are sailing for a different horizon? ANd that isn’t even a read on any one particular writer, I just find it INEVITABLE. What Bly would have been about for me is totally different than what it would have been if Jetty was writing it is totally different from what another writer might do.

In its best moments, I think Bly very nearly directly counters Hill House with the idea that family, connection, these are things we find for ourselves. Even the negative binding is a chosen one, and any familial relation is more or less easily tossed out. The story of us is what matters, and not the blood of it. It’s really a lovely sentiment, or it would be if it were more clearly expressed.

top 5 fictional characters you super relate to

(i’m answering these out of order because some of these require a lot of thought or maybe not a LOT of thought but i’m going to put too much into it because i am the way i am)

1 ) max guevara from dark angel (surprising absolutely no one, dark angel was the first show i immediately fell for and i was a bit young to actually relate to her when the show was airing but i started relating more to her as i got older, which may be due to me just wanting to be her but also i relate a lot to her not revealing much about herself in order to protect herself, i feel like there’s not a lot of people who know me very well even among my closest friends and family but at the same time i would do whatever i could to protect or help them)

2 ) caroline forbes from the vampire diaries (i remember in season one everyone HATED her and it made me really sad because especially upon rewatching all she was ultimately doing was being maybe a little too eager? and she would continuously get excluded and feel like she was only the choice if someone else was unavailable and i related to that back when i was around that age and now but we won’t get into that)

3 ) theo crain from the haunting of hill house (much like max is also afraid to get close to people and is ready to fight people and go through hell to protect or save them, also has a complicated relationship with her family but again we won’t get into that)

4 ) megara from disney’s hercules (are you sensing a pattern at this point? i’m not sure at this point if my sense of humor/sarcasm came from trying to imitate characters like this and it started with her or if i related to her because i had that sense of humor all along)

5 ) cordelia chase from buffy the vampire slayer (i feel like i’m the one in my group of friends who goes a little too far in my criticism and people get annoyed with me for it which isn’t quite the same thing but i still find her relatable in this sense and wanting to look my best whenever i can and comparing things to stuff i’m familiar with to cope with weird shit, does that make sense at all?)

honorable mentions: buffy summers from buffy the vampire slayer, sarah manning from orphan black, beth childs from orphan black, johanna mason from the hunger games, lorna dane from the gifted
