I love it. It's one of the first shows/movies I've seen in a looong time that actually creeped me out. The scene with the 'mistaken identity intimacy' especially gave me the heeby jeebies.

Yup, this is my surprise hit of the season. I'm really enjoying it so far.

Trailers were misleading which made it look like a drama more than a creepy tv show. Gave it a chance and got my friend hooked. Enjoying it so far.

Now all I need is a redhead maid.

Yeeshhh... I was thinking right how good could it be... it's on TV and they couldn't even manage to get it made into a feature film and I hear about it on some comic pencilers forum... total dud right....

But man... remind me not to watch it before bed again. Creep-O-Rama. Just too many things to be bothered by. Some of the characters are just too... ughhh... never mind I now have to watch Winnie the Pooh or Barney or the Muppet Show or something for an hour so I can get to sleep. Terrible... terrible show. :omg:




























I've got all the rest of the episodes lined up to watch. :skull:

This show is currently my favorite show on television. It's full of surprises. I have a crush on Kate Mara, and I agree that Jessica Lang is a genius. She brings the show up a notch and it was already at a high level. Another thing that sets it apart for me is that, at this moment, there is not one single character I dislike.

Pop shared my feelings exactly. I watched the first episode and was hooked. What I like about this show is that almost every ghost has history. You know something bad happens but it covers it enough and you get the characters feeling like they are organic like they are real. this is something that doesn't happen much in shows.

Lang is by far the standout on the show, this may become her defining performance (which is saying a lot considering some of her past roles). I've enjoyed Zack Quinto as well the short time he's been on.
My only problem with the show is my problem with most horror, and that is that the drama and conflict relies too much on the stupidity of the characters.

The house intoxicates the people in the house. So its not surprising a lot of stuff is more like a fantasy but is in reality. Like Hayden is dead but they think she is alive because the ghost is there and is interacting with them. How are they supposed to know if she is alive or dead when they see a person there. Like the main guy thinks the burned guy is setting this all up for money.

There is only ONE person who is missing from this mix, Constance's husband.

he is the only ghost who hasn't showed up.
I was CERTAIN that's who the rubbersuit man was, but boy was i wrong...

he helped conceive the anti-christ and didn't know it!!!!


this, Walking Dead and True blood are my favorite shows.

I just wanna know what it was the doctor made from his dead baby, the thing his wife wasn't able to kill (and subsequently led to the wife's murder/suicide of him and herself). It's pretty much what set everything in motion, and you don't know what happened to it.

Constance's husband was the guy Hayden slept with and stabbed.I think that is the most we've seen of him really.

No, they weren't married. Remember, she wanted to marry him, but he was more concerned with his career.

We need to know about Constance's husband from the past. The one who fathered her children.

no that was her boy toy.

Constance shot her husband right after she shot the Maid in the face. He is the only ghost missing from the action.

That's right. I had forgotten that part already.

Wasn't Constance's husband the spirit that Hayden had sex with and then stabbed repeatedly, and then he got up just fine because he was a ghost?

Yes!! Eric Close(from Now and Again) played Constance's husband. I watched the first 6 episodes back to back in one evening, so this stuff should be fresh in my head.

Love this show. They've really taken 'haunted house' to the next level. Very well produced on all levels.

meh....last episode was not so great in that hayden ineterracting so much with real people ( her sis and officer?) that dont live in the house. i understand that the ghosts would show themselves so much to the people who live there but when they start showing themselves to other people it kinda takes me out of the story.
