my favorite scene in the haunting of hill house
Фильм және анимация
to make up for my last video on the haunting of hill house, i decided to upload one of my favorite scenes. i think episode 6 is one of the greatest episodes of all time; it's dark, eery, suspenseful, and an emotional rollercoaster. enjoy and watch the series if you haven't yet!

Nell interrupts this argument with the coffin, interrupts Theo and Shirl’s argument in the car with a scream. both times, everyone stops and reunites, if only for a moment. over and over, she’s putting them back together. she just wanted them all in one place, as one unit, not the fragments that they tried so hard to be.

My takeaway here is that Nell tips the coffin over to symbolize that they still have each other to fight with....here she is over here dead as a doornail and they are fighting over petty matters. I think she's telling them to be grateful for one another while they're still here
This whole episode is amazing. I like that they experiment to not cut the scene but to take it as 1 long shot. Believe me this is freaking amazing cinematography

I also noticed something else now that I'm rewatching it again. I don't know why but Steven consoling him after Luke being unable to face the casket(mentioned above really hit me, because something occured to me. Steven: "Take your time. We can wait. There's no rush." It took this many years for his siblings to finally give him the time and patience to catch his breath and recover, and they don't blame him for his understandable freakout. The words that he's needed for years were finally said. I don't k ow if it was intentional, but at the same time, I can't say it wasn't lol
an interesting thing i noticed is how Luke, even though he is big now, wasnt and still isnt a violent or angry person. so vulnerable sadly. he likely looks up to his big brother and still sees him as larger than life person to not even try to stop him.

Well yeah, I’m a mortuary student myself and a lot of us who go into the business have had an experience with death that can cause us to be particularly sensitive over the treatment of the deceased. It’s a job that requires a lot of empathy, that’s for sure.
the thing about this scene.....the hidden thing about this scene which makes it so powerful to me is that despite all their fighting and hatred and bottled up anger and contempt, despite all this shit that’s kept half the family estranged from each other...they’re still a family. they still care deeply for one another in ways that transcends even them. and they think that when the most innocent of all dies, that there’s nothing left holding them together, that they’re doomed to drift apart in anger. but that simply isn’t true. the Crains went through an indescribable trauma, but in their hearts they are a family. a tight knit family, whom just wants to see the others kept safe. they come together when there’s a threat, when their emotions are at the highest they swallow them up for the sake of togetherness. seeing hugh steve shirley and luke putting Nell’s coffin back holds so much more meaning that simple decency. it’s a symbolic representation of the dynamic of this broken family. hurt on the outside but deep care when the goings get rough. and THAT. is what makes HOHH so great.

You should be a writer. Seriously.
The best thing about this scene is how the can almost tell that they were the reason the coffin fell, and they just try to put it back together afterwards like they feel ashamed and sorry
Steve's face when they're setting the coffin straight just kills me every time. He's having such a hard time dealing with all of this. He's so used to putting his head in the sand and denying all of it, and having to physically touch the coffin made it real and nearly breaks him. He just looks like a sad and scared kid again.
The last scene when she appear next to her dead body Makes me CRY a Lot Poor Baby
the worst part was the ending when Nell spirit stood there and her young self said "you couldn't see me" :( gets me every time
Nellie always wanted to keep them all together in one place. Now they're together because of her.
Steve’s face of pain when they’re righting Nell’s casket, whoof, gets me every time
Having the casket fall was genius. I kinda saw it coming the first time I watched but still genius. *chef’s kiss*
I cried so much watching this scene. The Haunting of Hill House truly got to me, really bad.
Between the long takes, the storm scene in the house, Nell at the end, and archangel Kevin taking care of the whole family like the S-tier dad he is, this is probably my favorite episode of the whole series. Also really hit home on the "funeral reunion" experience for me.
Steve makes me so ANGRY in this scene! In this entire episode, really!

At first he made me angry too, but then I watched the rest of the season and now he’s one of my favourite characters. Just because a lot of people don’t understand him, and if you watch the 9th and 10th episode you will understand what i mean!!! He has been through so much more than what people think!! And at first he thinks it’s all Mentall illness, so he wants to get away from it as far as possible, but then the last episode, he starts to realise that it’s not mentall illness, it ACTUALLY is the house. It’s a lot to take in, and to think about! But that’s what makes him so special (to me) Xx

Hugh hid the majority of what happened from them, like he said, "to protect their memories of their poor mother". As far as Steve saw, his dad woke them up in the middle of the night and left his mother alone during a mental breakdown and she killed herself.

@Ramon Florencio Perez bly manor is the worst, i read a lot of hatred in the reviews for that one and went with my bars touching the ground, and it still managed to disappoint me. though the first and the second episode was pretty good, and there was this other episode where they tell a story from a random ghost's perspective, which stood out to me the most(second last episode i think)
You're right - for me, this always felt like the biggest moment of the entire series. This was also the best episode in the series.
You know, yesterday I finished The Haunting of Bly Manor and I really liked it but this one is still my favorite. Hill House has this amazing perfectly filmed chapter that just gaves me chill everytime I watch it and boy I do I love this story
One of my favorite sense from this was when all the kids were in the red room and they first saw nell and she was repeating herself like a broken record and then she found some clarity and went into her big speach
This whole episode is my favorite and this scene made me more emotional than the whole show because how much I relate to Nell feeling like nobody can see her. Because I’m autistic and my whole life nobody has understood me and saw me as a nuisance instead of understanding my struggles and helping me, and I have to “mask” all my autistic traits to not freak anyone out or be a burden to anyone, to the point where the the issues get so bad that I try to take my life in hopes of everyone seeing me. “I was right here the whole time but you couldn’t see me, nobody could see me”
Hill House was perfectly splendid

What about the scene where Luke says something but Nell was always there that they all couldn’t see her, that part was emotional
Their fighting is literally making her “turn over in her grave”
Love this episode. I love how they made it look for the majority of the episode as though it was recorded in one take, without changing camera angles
This was Nell's way of saying "oh heeell noo Steve u dont get to say that to him" and it never fails to move me.
The change from one-take shots to regular film-style editing was so jarring and worked in such an emotional way for this ending.
This is literally a perfect episode of television.
I really love this series especially how everything unfolded at the end. Nelly has always been trying to protect her family.
I'm gonna say this over and over again, this is the very FIRST horror series or i'd say horror genre that i've ever cried to. It's just too good, the characters, the storyline, the emotions, it's just beyond perfect & has been a roller-coaster ride filled with secrets & truths kept within!
Nell is truly a selfless person. She takes deep pride in family and cares about everybody.
Nelly’s in the coffin like “will you idiots stop yelling I’m trying to lay down. Don’t make me come out this coffin.” Coffin falls. “Oh great, your lucky I can’t get out of this coffin.”
To think most of this scene was shot all on a single long take. No cuts, no editing. The gathering of these amazing actors and actresses along with Flanagan definitely gave us a masterpiece that will live on for years to come.
Agreed. This intense follow up to the emotional episode 5 put this show in my Netflix top 10. Amazing show. And this was my fav episode.
The way her head bounces KILLS ME
That is one of my favorite scenes too because it's so sad when Nell said why couldn't they see me
OUTSTANDING acting during this entire episode. And OUTSTANDING job by the crew to pull something of the sort.
I always assumed it was Nell that put the buttons on her own eyes (she LOVED buttons) to show that she was there since they couldn't see her!!! 💔💔
I just noticed Oliver's slight nod at the beginning. He, as Luke, doesn't want to side against Steve, but he can't lie about the House
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one to find this episode amazing.
This episode is an absolute masterpiece!! I came back to this series for the second time just because I wanted to watch this episode again.

Yeah, it kind of bothered me too. But when watched the 9th and 10th episode it didn’t bother me anymore, just because those episodes show that he has been through terrible things just like his siblings, and his dad showing him the actual truth is so incredible!!! He shows his emotions in a different way, anger and frustration. But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t need to be loved!! I also think he is denying everything, because he thinks its a disease, he knows in the back of his mind that he saw ghosts, but doesn’t want to admit it, he doesn’t want to be “mentally ill” like the rest of his siblings he thought. But as the serie goes he understands more and more of the family, the house, and the things he has seen or not.
