There are still ghost aplenty in Bly Manor, another haunted house story, but there's a romance at the centre of this series that's quite surprising. First off, while the actors are the same, they all play completely different characters as the series adapts Henry James' The Turn of the Screw. Hill House is absolutely terrifying – and its follow-up, The Haunting of Bly Manor, strikes a surprisingly different tone. Fleeing in the middle of the night, the story picks up decades later as the scattered family is drawn together again by that darn house.

With the intention of renovating it and flipping it before they buy their real home, the Crains discover that the house has other plans. A retelling of Shirley Jackson’s terrifying novel, the series was helmed by Mike Flanagan, whose previous Netflix features Hush and Gerald’s Game, and follows the Crain family as they move into the remote Hill House. The Haunting of Hill House was Netflix's first must-see horror.
