The Haunting of Hill House, Netflix's adaptation of Shirley Jackson's seminal 1959 gothic-horror novel of the same name, avoids the blood and guts from most titles that we see this time of year, and instead, favors something that is perhaps more existential, but nonetheless terrifying - specifically, the difficult journey of a family trying to come to grips with the ghosts of their past. Through 10 emotionally-charged episodes, the series centers on the Crain family, and the lifelong scars that come from growing up in America's most famous haunted house.
