As a story, it's real good. Horror-wise, not so much.

It's not traditional horror like jump scares and gore, but it's damn good psychological horror and atmosphere

I really enjoyed it, as did my two housemates. If you get a chance, check it out.

Yeah, its not your generic horror garbage of the past 20 year of cheap jumpscares and gorey violence.

Its actually well written, acted, and the horror honestly takes a backseat. Its a slowburn family drama with sparse horror influence.

yes though make sure you really pay attention because the show takes you back to the way past, the recent past, and the present quite frequently. i was slightly distracted during thr first few episodes and I had a frustrating time trying to understand what character was who from each time frame. especially since several of the characters look similar.

The Bent Neck Lady was a damn trip

It and Episode 6 were the best bar none

So weird when people try to say something isn't horror when it definitely is just because they think it's somehow better than that.

The horror isn't the focus of the show and serves a backdrop. Most of the show is about the relationships of the family members, not the ghosts and the haunted house.
