I just felt that it was tonally out of place compared to the rest of the show. Oh, I definitely get what they were going for and I can appreciate the message. Sad, but with hope and love.ĭoes that sound like confronting "insatiable evil" to anyone? By the end we get the heartstring-tugging music as the house is a sanctuary for dead people to be able to remain with their loved ones, and it's clear this should be a bittersweet tone. We definitely got the idea it was evil over the other episodes as it corrupted Olivia by creating fear for her children. Too bad, because I believed Hugh's foreboding description "We are an unfinished meal to that house." Not really.Įvil doesn't let a bunch of protagonists, one seriously injured, just walk out of it jaws. That house was, at the end, the very definition of sated. Turns out there was nothing insatiable about the house. "The Red Room's contents are finally revealed as the Crains return to the house to confront old ghosts, unspeakable secrets and an insatiable evil." I think the most obviously incongruent part is the very description of the last episode:
#THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE SEASON 1 EPISODE 4 SERIES#
It was a really compelling series until a sudden an inexplicable turn in tone, logic, and utter forgetfulness about half of the tension it had built up. I disagree in that I did think it was a horrible ending. The intent of this rule is to promote unique content and thoughtful discussion.
