The Haunting of Hill House Season 2 renewal or cancelled?
The first season has been met with widespread acclaim, but will Netflix scare up a second season?
Director Mike Flanagan has already started planning for Season 2, which if it happens would focus on a new set of characters in the vein of an anthology series, per EW:
I don’t want to speculate too much about season two until Netflix and Paramount and Amblin let us know if they want one. What I will say, though, is that as far as I’ve ever been concerned with this, the story of the Crain family is told. It’s done. I think that there are all sorts of different directions we could go in, with the house or with something completely different. I love the idea of an anthology as well. But to me, I felt like the Crains have been through enough, and we left them exactly as we all wanted to remember them, those of us who worked on it. We toyed with a cliffhanger ending and we toyed with other ideas, but ultimately, in the writers’ room and with the cast and everything else, we really felt like the story demanded a certain kind of closure from us and we were happy to close the book on that family.
He noted that Season 2 could not only feature new characters but a new location entirely:
That said, I think more than anything, the show is about haunted places and haunted people, as Steve says, and there’s no shortage of either. So, there’s any number of things we could do, in or out of Hill House.
Where do you stand? Do you want The Haunting of Hill House Season 2 or should the show be ghosted after one? Watch this space…
