Netflix's 'The Haunting Of Bly Manor’ Is Here To Make Your 2020 Feel Even Spookier

Netflix's 'The Haunting Of Bly Manor’ Is Here To Make Your 2020 Feel Even Spookier

On the hunt for your next binge-watch that has a bit more grit? In all honesty, we don't blame you. 

Having lived through one of the most chaotic years in existence, it makes sense that we're all on the hunt for our next distraction. And thankfully, Netflix has delivered exactly that.

Introducing The Haunting Of Bly Manor. 

Following the incredibly successful first season, The Haunting Of Hill House, this new season in Netflix's latest anthology series will cover an entirely different story with completely different characters—Think: Ryan Murphy's American Horror Story. 

Whether you're new to The Haunting universe or just love to check your wardrobe for ghosts, Bly Manor is sure to satisfy.

Fascinated? Keep reading for everything you need to know about the show, from the plot to the cast and where you can stream it in Australia.

What Is The Plot Of The Haunting Of Bly Manor?

Fans of the show's first season, The Haunting Of Hill House will know that it was inspired by Shirley Jackson's 1959 horror novel of the same name.

And much like its predecessor, The Haunting Of Bly Manor is also based on a novel—that of the 1898 book The Turn Of The Screw by Henry James. The story follows a governess hired to take care of two (somewhat creepy) children at their impressive estate. 

The story itself has previously been adapted into numerous films, most famously in 1961's The Innocents, and most recently the 2020 film The Turning—in case you're looking to do some research before your binge-watch.

But remember that you might lose some sleep, because according to The Haunting's creator Mike Flanagan, this season is set to be "scarier". "It's a lot more frightening, just on a visceral level," Flanagan revealed to Entertainment Weekly.

Trust us it'll be worth it, check out the official trailer below to see for yourself.

Who Is In The Cast Of The Haunting Of Bly Manor?

The last season might be behind us, but the cast is looking to stick around. Bly Manor will feature You's Victoria Pedretti (who played Nell Crain), Oliver Jackson-Cohen (who played Nell's twin brother Luke), Kate Siegal (who played their older sister Theo) and Henry Thomas (who played the younger version of their father, Hugh).

The Haunting franchise also welcomes newcomers Rahul Kohli (iZombie), Tahirah Sharif (A Christmas Prince) and T'Nia Miller (Sex Education).
