I'm with you Jordan, I can never see the hidden ghosts either! Have a great weekend you two!

Jayson Phillips

There is a react video I forget who does it but they have arrows pointing out all the ghosts and it almost like every scene and some are so hidden even with the arrows it's hard to see them fully.

You guys have to do The Fall Of The House Of Usher also by Mike Flanagan. It’s just as good if not better.

N.T. Stars

Great reaction! This episode is a masterpiece. Such good performances across the board. Hidden ghosts are the LEAST interesting part of this show to me, so I'm glad you guys didn't focus on them much here.

My Mike Flanagan show ranking: Hill House Bly Manor Midnight Mass House of Usher Midnight Club (i still haven't finished it tbh)

I'm a big, hairy curmudgeon of a Gen-X'er, but this episode is such an emotional nut punch that I tear up every time. Well, except the first time, since I was just as flabbergasted as y'all were. Y'all are lucky, what with there being three more of these yet to come from Mike Flanagan, "The Haunting of Bly Manor", "Midnight Mass" and "The Fall of the House of Usher". Edit : Yeah, I know there is another one in there that I didn't mention, but they can't all be winners.

Same order for me. And, same with losing interest in "The Midnight Club" before I finished it.

Oh yes. We're building it all up, the sheer heartbreak of this episode is just one part of what makes this show so fantastic.

Did you guys think that Steven lied to Nell when he left the message on her voicemail saying that he called center and they said Luke was doing good and he actually got his 90 day chip? He didn't lie, that was all in the 1st episode with him getting told by Shirley that Nell left her a vm and she didn't have the time to check on Luke, so she asked him to check on him and he then called the rehab place and they told him that about Luke, getting his 90 day chip. Steven isn't evil or anything. He has a perspective based on what he's seen (or hasn't), just like the rest of them.

Midnight Mass was the first Mike Flanagan series that I watched, so it sits at the top for me. I really hope they watch it.

This is the episode that changed my feelings that this was a great show into believing it's a phenomenal, landmark piece of television. And that only continued to grow as the series went on.

Usher is my second favorite. The emotional depth of "Hill House" gives it the edge for me...but "Usher" is also outstanding. (I'd rank "Midnight Mass" after that. For me, it wasn't so much "horror" as the other two, more "thriller." But it certainly features haunting moments. And no one can rip my heart out with a scream like Kate Siegel!) For me, "Bly Manor" is more "spooky" than scary...more gothic ghost story. But it's a lot of fun to see some familiar faces in some very different roles. (Especially after seeing some of them in "Usher" and "Midnight Mass"!)

I think they were just temporarily confused by the timeline (which is easy to do with this show). I felt like they corrected it later in the reaction.

When Nell and Steve were dancing on her wedding day and Nell said, "I wish Luke was here," Chandra made the comment, "He tried." I have to respectfully disagree. As the family member of an addict, I've been lied to/stolen from/burned over and over, so I have a lot of sympathy for the other siblings, mostly Shirley who has basically been used as an ATM. Addicts know how to play on you emotionally and that you can't stand to see them suffering/in a bad way, so they know they can get more and more from you until you finally say 'enough.' I love Luke as a character, I feel terrible for everything he's been through, and I believe everyone has the potential to change for the better. But running away from the rehab facility your siblings have gone broke to pay for (for the umpteenth time), going missing for a week when you know your twin sister is about to get married, and then turning up at a place that you aren't even sure is the wedding venue (high as a kite, I might add) is NOT trying. Shirley was 100% right to turn him away.

This episode is really a game changer. Wait until the ending.
