The Haunting of Hill House arrived on streaming in October 2018, marking the first of director Mike Flanagan’s Netflix original horror series. Over the course of 10 bone chilling episodes, the series not only masterfully blended horror and emotional family drama to capture the depth and complexity of loss and grief, but also cemented itself as one of the best horror series of all time.

Based on Shirley Jackson’s 1959 novel of the same name, Hill House centers around the five adult Crain siblings – Steven, Shirley, Theodora, Luke, and Nellie –who are forced to confront the ghosts of their past after reuniting following a family tragedy. The series is split between two timelines – 1992, when the Crain family first moved to Hill House and one fateful night that changed everything, and the present day, as the Crains continue to be haunted by the mansion they fled.

Along with Michiel Huisman, Elizabeth Reaser, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Kate Siegel, and Victoria Pedretti starring as the adult Crain siblings, Paxton Singleton, Lulu Wilson, McKenna Grace, Julian Hilliard, and Violet McGraw starred as their younger counterparts.

While Hill House is still regarded as a modern horror masterpiece and all 10 episodes were met with high critical praise, there were still a few standouts. Keep scrolling to find out the best Hill House episodes.
