Mike Flanagan To Direct Series Adaption Of THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE For Netflix

Netflix has ordered the series adaptation of Shirley Jackson’s 1959 novel, ‘The Haunting of Hill House’, long considered one of the best modern ghost stories written. Mike Flanagan will be in the director’s chair for the 10-episode series. He will also write and executive produce it. Referred to as a “modern reimagining”, the series has yet to be given a title. The new series was the brainchild of Amblin TV’s Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey, according to Deadline. Both will also be executive producing the project. The Haunting of Hill House has been adapted twice before as films under the title The Haunting, first in 1963 and then again in 1999. In the 1999 version, Eleanor, Theo, and Luke decide to take part in a sleep study at a huge mansion they get more than they bargained for when Dr. Marrow tells them of the house’s ghostly past. Soon the house and the spirits within come alive. Mike Flanagan is

An Interview With Lynn Falconer Costume Designer For Ouija: Origin Of Evil

When you watch a film, the costumes are a key element. They influence how you see a character, their environment, place and time. Without the right costumes a film would be lost. One of my favorite things is to talk to people who do different things in the film industry. I recently had the pleasure of speaking with costume designer and wardrobe stylist Lynn Falconer. You might not realize it, but you have seen her work before. She most recently designed the costumes for the upcoming film ‘Ouija 2: Origin of Evil‘, but she has been involved with so many projects. Just to name a few, ‘Oculus’, ‘Before I Wake’, ‘The Frozen Ground’, ‘Silent House’, ‘Straw Dogs’, and many others. Falconer also dresses actors for various commercials for companies such as Verizon, Radio Shack and even the Super Bowl. Horror Fuel: “Have you always been interesting in fashion? Falconer: “Yes! And there is quite the documented history of it in
