Those ghosts just won’t leave Hill House alone.
Netflix has given a 10-episode order to a modern reimagining of Shirley Jackson’s 1959 novel The Haunting of Hill House, our sister site Deadline reports.
The horror series, from Steven Spielberg’s Amblin TV and Paramount TV, will be written, directed and executive-produced by filmmaker Mike Flanagan (Ouija: Origin of Evil, Oculus, Before I Wake).
Jackson’s book was previously adapted for the screen as the 1963 and 1999 films The Haunting.
