Good morning!

Well, I finished this last night and I have the worst TV hangover ever! I miss it so much! I miss the characters, I miss Hill House, and I’m so sad I have nothing left to watch.

This show is just phenomenal! The last episode had me scared and in tears! Everything was wrapped up beautifully, in a perfect, cobweb-encrusted bow. Honestly, I’m completely satisfied with just the one season, and I think at this point going beyond season one, would mean taking the show outside the scope of Shirley Jackson’s book. It can be done, and the writers have the chops to pull it off, but I think you’ll find the conclusion perfect! There are of course, a few easter eggs left for them to continue if viewers are craving more. 😉

Guys, stop everything you’re watching right now and watch The Haunting of Hill House! You will not regret it!

A+++

OMG you guys! Are you watching this? This has to be the best adaptation so far!

The Haunting of Hill House dropped its first season yesterday, and though I’m only on episode 4, I am obsessed!

Based on the very famous book by Shirley Jackson, The Haunting of Hill House is the family drama of your nightmares!

The Book:

First published in 1959, Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House has been hailed as a perfect work of unnerving terror. It is the story of four seekers who arrive at a notoriously unfriendly pile called Hill House: Dr. Montague, an occult scholar looking for solid evidence of a “haunting”; Theodora, his lighthearted assistant; Eleanor, a friendless, fragile young woman well acquainted with poltergeists; and Luke, the future heir of Hill House. At first, their stay seems destined to be merely a spooky encounter with inexplicable phenomena. But Hill House…

Death isn’t always the end. In fact, if you suddenly find yourself recently risen from the dead with an instinctual hunger for brains, it’s really only the beginning. Diana Rowland’s White Trash Zombie series of novels follows underdog character Angel Crawford as she navigates life (or something vaguely similar to it) as a freshly-turned zombie.

anigif_enhanced-9274-1413944865-12 No, not this type of zombie.

Even White Trash Zombies Get the Blues is a good follow-up to the debut book in the series, My Life as a White Trash Zombie. We see Angel getting more comfortable in her own skin (which only begins to rot if she doesn’t keep herself well-fed on brains, that she is able to obtain with a method far less chompy-chompy than most zombies.)

She may be getting the hang of being one of the undead, (it certainly has its perks in these books), but there are still hurdles…
