The Haunting • Season 1 Ratings & Reviews
Bitch Media
Dahlia Balcazar
Most of the best moments from the book make it into the series.

I really thought it was different, and mature. Henry Thomas, great to see him in this show, what a great actor.
Vox
Emily St. James
The result is deeply creepy but unexpectedly moving, especially in the series' gorgeously paced midsection.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Lindsey Romain
Trauma builds walls around us, but The Haunting of Hill House shines a light on the exit.
The New Yorker
Emily Nussbaum
Most frustratingly, the adaptation abandons the raw feminine perversity that made Jackson's story so indelible.
Newsweek
Andrew Whalen
The Haunting of Hill House is a new high watermark for episodic horror, not just standing up to past adaptations... but demonstrating that a show can be both dramatically complex and relentlessly scary.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
As a tale of what happens when the ties that bind are the same ones that gag you, and scar you, and occasionally strangle you to death, it's absolutely terrifying.
The Atlantic
Sophie Gilbert
Over 10 episodes, it's stylish, moving, and sinister, riddled with ghosts both literal and metaphorical.
Slate
Sam Adams
It isn't the words that stick with you... It's the sight of the Bent-Neck Lady...
New York Magazine/Vulture
Ruth Franklin
What I'm most curious to discover is how Flanagan, who also wrote the show, plans to update the themes of the original to mirror contemporary American anxieties.
TIME Magazine
Judy Berman
Between effective jump-scares, a cast led by the great TV actors Michiel Huisman and Elizabeth Reaser breathes life into an allegory for collective mourning.
Vanity Fair
Richard Lawson
Some stories work better as discrete two-hour movies, but the sad tale of the Crain family of Massachusetts benefits from a long, novelistic gaze.
Vox
Aja Romano
What's remarkable is that Flanagan, thanks largely to stellar performances from the ensemble, manages to make all this sibling drama feel suspenseful rather than wearying.
AV Club
Emily L. Stephens
The best haunted-house stories aren't scary because they're filled with a long lineup of ghosties and ghoulies. They're scary because they want something from the haunted.
IndieWire
Ben Travers
Its real potential lies in breaking the mold more than reapplying it. It's the people who haunt viewers more than the ghosts, and emphasizing the stories of the living is what makes Netflix's horror show come alive.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Lloyd
For much of its titanic length, The Haunting of Hill House, which premieres Friday on Netflix, does interesting things with character and atmosphere and maintains an air of melancholic suspense.
Washington Post
Hank Stuever
Things were going so well. Now here I am, out back in the cold of night, burying it.
New York Times
Jason Zinoman
Flanagan has made an intelligent, engaging supernatural story in which the tension doesn't mount so much as stop and start, and occasionally sputter.
AV Club
Katie Rife
The real marvel of The Haunting Of Hill House is in its execution. Plot threads that initially may seem to go nowhere, or seem obvious, actually have welcome, complicated layers that reveal the relatable family dynamics...
New York Magazine/Vulture
Jen Chaney
[It] unfolds at too plodding a pace... But once the series establishes its storytelling approach, it hooks you in, compelling you to keep watching until certain mysteries are resolved.
