The story goes from an ordinary middle-class family of three in the United States. After the second child of the hostess VIVIAN was aborted, the husband BEN was an excellent psychologist, but because of cheating, the harmony of the family was destroyed, so BEN decided to move to a new place. Healing the fragmented family, allowing his wife to accept him again and start a new life, so the family of three moved to this Victorian mansion, which was built for his beloved wife by a famous surgeon in the 1920s A big house. Of course, the agency didn’t tell them that the surgeon and his wife had died there in the last century. The agency who was not bad in character just told them that the last couple of gay homeowners were murdered in this house. .
All right! The harmless family of HARMON moved in in this way and opened up a picture of a hundred ghosts and beings. BEN ushered in the first patient, a blond boy like an angel, TATE, and became a close friend of his daughter Violet. Eddie, a mentally handicapped girl who always likes to break into their house without problems, no matter how Vivian locks the door, she always has a way to break in. She said that there are her friends here, and her extremely powerful and vain and weird mother seems to know All the secrets, but they just moved in and wanted to poison Violet with a violet cake. Of course, this cake actually helped them escape the massacre of three perverted killer fanatics.
Gradually, VIVIAN discovered the terrible oil painting covered by wallpaper, BEN’s sleepwalking, and strange people appeared repeatedly from time to time. Finally, they finally discovered the secret. It turns out that the souls who die in this big house never go to heaven or go to hell. Opportunities for, will be imprisoned here forever by an evil and powerful force. Good ghosts cry repeatedly in nightmares, while evil souls are constantly wondering how to hurt the living people.
I spent three days watching it twice, and I was amazed by the skill of the screenwriter. There is no nonsense and no extra plot in the entire TV series. The beginning of each episode often starts with a famous murder in American history. Among them are the black Dali flower murders that we are very familiar with. Those murders are directly or indirectly related to the homeowners of the past. The director cleverly moved the occurrence of these classic cases to our exquisite house, or the beginning The short story of the previous homeowner will also be used as an introduction. Even if a few seconds of detail flash by, it seems irrelevant and inexplicable, but it also hints to the audience and promotes the powerful development of the plot. In the end, it is all successfully connected. I watched it the third time and found out all the plots, who killed who and why.
In this luxurious Victorian haunted house, a group of ghosts with distinctive personalities and a few humans with their own ghosts are stripped of their horrible cloaks. A story about human responsibility and courage in life is staged in the haunted house. Seeing the end, I only felt a little bleak and warm sadness.
Just like BEN's piercing truth: I am not a good person either. The people I should love deeply hurt them badly. Day after day, month after month, year after year, we collect the money, In fact, we know in our hearts that we can't cure the world at all. The world just has no way to face the mess of life. It is easy to apologize but difficult to take responsibility. It should be understood that the most difficult thing in this world is facing the wrong things I have done and the difficult life, how many people choose to escape or numb life?
Therefore, our great demon TATE, this charming and extraordinary, eye-catching mentally ill patient (BEN’s original diagnosis) has always deliberately chosen to forget why he has harmed so many people. When Violet asked him, he He even kept tears aggrieved, and asked in a daze: "Yes, why did I harm so many people?" In fact, he remembered all of them.
Fortunately, our great demon finally understands what love is, and dares to face himself, and bravely tells his own evil deeds in tears. This is the courage that many people in our modern era do not have!
The crowded haunted house has gradually changed due to the joining of the HARMON family. The beautiful boy TATE fell in love with Violat, and Vivian was pregnant with her hands. The lady NORA has been suffering from the loss of her child in the previous life, and finally she finally died of Vivian’s dystocia. Child, but tired of taking care of that child, this kind of realistic black humor and helplessness, oh! It turned out that the ghost mother would also worry about taking the child, but when the child stopped crying in the arms of VIVIAN, the oldest ghost in this big mansion, after nearly a century of struggle and pain, finally calmed down and said with a smile. Heartfelt, I want to take a good rest. Maybe I am not suitable for taking care of children. At this time, the music has been replaced with extremely soothing and peaceful golden piano music, as if after a big storm, under the golden sun, the sailor anchored the boat in the calm sea. On the sea, fishing happily and leisurely.
That Mora Butler, in the eyes of men, is sexy and provocative, in the eyes of women, is sleek and ugly. She is really a realistic and slightly mischievous female ghost. When she became the godmother of Wei'an children, she finally revealed the first gentleness in the whole play. Smile, I believe her ghost life is finally different, no longer desperate.
The highlight of the whole play is that the happiness that the HARMON family had always dreamed of during their lifetime was unexpectedly realized in this haunted house that brought them suffering. VIOLET can finally enjoy the happiness of their parents peacefully and happily, and VIVIAN no longer bears the funeral. The pain of the son, and BEN was forgiven by his wife and daughter, and received the warmth and happiness of the long-lost family in my heart. It is difficult for us to finally light up the warm Christmas tree in the heavy, terrifying and flustered old house in the first eleven episodes. In the eyes of Westerners, it is a reunion and joy that resembles the Chinese New Year plot. BEN smiled to Vivian and said: "Maybe you don't believe it, but I am very happy now."
I heard that the second season is about to change to a mental hospital, and the actors have basically changed, but the blame neighbor aunt and ghost mother Constance is still starring. Her excellent performance in the first season left a deep impression on the audience. At first, I didn’t understand why Constance had to poison her after seeing Violet a few times. She didn’t even know her very much. Later, she realized that she wanted Viole to die in this room and stay with her forever. The lonely son, deep in his heart, is also out of the love of his mother. Every time she makes her appearance, her performances are magically and perfectly matched with the background music, as if she was born to play this sad and hateful role, the aura is so amazing, even ghosts are afraid of her three points, But it is Oska's actress Jessica Lange, she is one of the most important souls of the show.
There may be no mansions in the mental hospital, no sexy and kind Mora, no Tate who is a mixture of angels and demons. It is a pity, but I believe there will be more room for digging horror stories, but I personally feel that it is Victory. Or the Gothic-style grand mansion has a more solemn sense of history, containing more fragrant and bizarre stories, which are eternally waiting for people's imagination and worship.
I really hope to continue the story with that house. In fact, I can make up a bunch of stories. Just like the rare black humorous fragments, the hostess on the tour guide and the real estate agent listened to the tour guide excitedly in the car. Their house: THE MURDER HOUSE! The real estate agent finally said excitedly: I finally understand that no matter how many people die in this house, it seems that I can always sell it.
A netizen ottilie said: This is actually not a horror movie. The main theme is not horror. It is actually about all kinds of unreachable love. The living cannot be peaceful, and the deceased do not want to rest in peace.
The common place between ghosts and humans is also the source of our story: irreparable regret, great pain, endless loneliness and human greed. In fact, horror movies are scary because of our fear of the unknown world. In those deep and dark unknown worlds, what is hidden is actually the biggest secret deep in the human heart, and the most direct thing when desires cannot be realized. Despair and madness.
This is not so much a good-looking horror TV series, as it is a deep story about human relations, responsibility and love.
The time of the living is too short to bear too much pain. However, in this Victorian mansion, the ghosts have eternal time to pursue, think, and face the unachievable desperate ghost life.
