Hanna is a live-in housekeeper. The uncle mentions that in the job interview. :)
Yes, remembered afterward
We need to start a drinking game. Whenever we hear “perfectly splendid” we drink! 🤪
It will be perfectly splendid!
I will do that when I watch for the second next time.
That’s a perfectly splendid drinking game
We'd all end up in a perfectly splendid alcoholic coma lol
Now that's a very bad idea lmao
"- Hey, how do you feel about coming to work for my nephews in our old haunted house?"
"- Great! Can I bring my own ghost along?"
People say "this isnt hill house" but it still has that same magic that HHH had. The focus on acting, the care put into every shot, and the monologues, god the monologues. Just superb writing. That's what made me love HHH and it's why I love HBM.
What I've noticed the most from people who didn't like this season is that their only reason for not liking it is "it wasn't scary enough.; it didn't have enough jump scares." Why does that have to be the ONLY indicator of a good season of this show? There was so much more to this season than being scared or having jump scares. It isn't what this season was about. I won't go into detail because of spoilers, but I'm sure you know what I mean.
@@loaf233 true everything you said especially abt the subtle creepiness being much terrifying than the jumps cares
"This isn't Hill House" Exactly - there was no way to top that and Mike knew that. So he made the perfectly splendid love story instead.
I've seen quite a few people saying they didn't like Bly Manor. I think it's because they were expecting something like Hill House which this is not. Bly manor is told like a Gothic Romance and it has a much more intricate story than Hill House did. I think it gets really good in the second half of the season so just stick with it and make sure you pay close attention to everything!
I liked the first half the most because in the second they just made entire episodes with dragged out monolouges that had nothing to do with the story and the ending was just bad. But glad you liked it at least. Also i think the trailer was a bit misleading because it made it look like a horror show when there was almost no horror in it
@@brixcer5681 The ending was phenomenal. You're tripping my friend. Episodes 4 and 8 were a bit weak but the rest were excellent imo.
@@MarkHogan994 Agreed! The ending was incredible. Had a nice "Ah-ha!" moment, that doesn't happen often for me.
@@brixcer5681 I personally think the trailers are usually the issue with the anthology series. A lot of people thought Hill House would be some James Wan jumpscare fest when it wasn't, the same as this. Hill House had supernatural elements intertwined with its main focus: grief; here, it's regret.
@@cainyourkids Bly Manor had a theme that Memories are the real ghosts. There are many such instances, like being tucked away, dream hopping between different memories, the fact that Owen's mother had dementia is also not a coincidence. I hope that the trailer had a monologue like opening kinda like the trailer for Hill House did(Nell and Luke were telling the mother about what tragedy lays in their future so that she can wake them up).
I think Hill House was the greatest one season series I’ve ever seen. I binged Bly Manor in two days and it’s a great successor.
it becomes so well thought and brilliant on rewatch seeing the storytelling.
I’m gonna rewatch is just to see what ghost I miss lol
@@BangTanPrettiNikki it's actually not that at all. Pay attention to the direction. why certain things are in focus. in first ep example w/o spoilers, when she's in kitchen at night it focuses on water dripping from sink. and dialog, now knowing what you now know, it's like watching for first time.
@@Ashley_e yea what did that focus on the dripping faucet imply? Care to elaborate please ?
@@sss13224 I hate to say spoilers. So I'll be cryptic. Think of what a faucets job is and think of her characters final shot. Foreshadowed.
I love Flora.....She's perfectly splendid!
@@b_v1 Nah Luke and Nell were cuter.
@@MamadNobari okay, you totally got me there
Yes she is
Flora is an icon. Seriously, oh my goodness she is so adorable! 🥰
She's also peppa pig.. Not to ruin things for you.. Lol.
Steven's almost evil laugh, every time Nikki got scared..I laughed so hard, almost peed my pants!!🤣
It’s a lot of fun
MIND BLOWN. Fellow subscribers, due yourself a favor and AFTER you see ALL 9 eps, watch them all again. It's superb. Direction. Dialog. Cinematography. Editing. Everything. Once you know what you know at the end, a re-watch It's like watching for the first time and truly fully appreciate it!! SO well done. BRAVO.
I think it's always the case with Mike Flanagan's works, which have such complex plot with layers and layers of substance that it all makes a million times more sense watching it a second time knowing what you do about the plot! I totally agree with this!
Good idea. I hated episode 8 cuz I was connected don't want to say spoilers, but you know what I mean. However, after I watched some reviews, I think I'll appreciate it more.
@@sylphiafox yeah, I need to watch it again
Exactly, it definitely gives you a different perspective upon rewatch. It understand now why they locked her inside the closet now.
True, I’m getting so much more watching Bly the second time around 👍 I’ve watched Hill House 5 times now 👀
Flora: "They're dolls of course"
Steven: Oh! Hell noo!!
😂😂😂
I'm very happy they kept the same piano scores of Hill House in some of the scenes. Also I think the Haunting's anthology will be mirroring American Horror Story for what concerns production and cast through the seasons.
Some dont like it but I do it gives you a certain type of feeling relating to HH
I love the score. It is absolutely amazing.
Steven's comment about his arm being ready...LOL
During their reactions to Haunting Of Hill House I was surprised they didn't switch sides
after a couple of episodes so Nikki could work on his other arm.
My first thought was that the kids were acc protecting her by locking her in the cupboard. Flora mentions that she should stay in her room so that the lady in the lake doesn't see her, then she sees muddy footprints from outside leading inside. I'm thinking that was definitely the lady in the lake.
That’s what I think. You may be ahead of me, but i was waiting for them to figure out that maybe she pissed off the lady in the lake. It was prob heading towards her or would’ve found her in the nanny room. The kids may have saved her
@@TheNecroFisherman when the doll is under the dresser the Lady is in the lake snd people are safe to roam. When the lady is anywhere else it means she is prowling that night and is not safe. Dani tripped over the doll that night meaning that the Lady was going to be out. The dolls move around as a warning system will the help of the little boy ghost.
@@AmethystEyes Oh gotcha. Also I bet the other ghosts watch out for them too, like the plague doctor. Horror movie logic am I right? If I kicked that doll in the middle of nowhere and the kids act like that... yea I’m hidin lol
'...and it yawned open to welcome her home.' I love that line. I've still only seen the first episode, so it remains to see just how foreboding it is.
Hannah is an angel and is such a comforting presence.
I was surprised that neither of them recognized luke from season 1...
Or the dad, at least they didn't seem to.🤔
Same
Only recognized Luke from the open. Nikki mentioned the dad, did I edit that line out?
@@NikkiStevenReact I didn't hear anything abiut the dad. I was starring at you both saying "say something about the dad, it's the dad...hey it's the dad". Haha. I could've missed it tho🤔
looks like I cut that part out... nikki does say something along the lines of, "oh and dad"
You wondered if anyone was staying in the house overnight with the kids before Dani was hired. Lol. Yes. Hannah the housekeeper has a bedroom in the house. I feel like she was both Housekeeper and nanny to the kids during those 6 months. Which is a lot to handle, so the cook stepped up during the daytime to help look after the kids as well. Hopefully they got paid well doing the extra work to care for these weird children. 🙃
@andy jonnson I'd reply with a comment about what is really causing the children to act so weird, but I can't give away spoilers. Just know I am referring to that cause of their weirdness... not their grief.
@andy jonnson you're a very rude person aren't you? I happen to like kids, and you have definitely not watched this season. The kids are weird for a REASON. Watch the show instead of being an asshole to people.
@andy jonnson I'm reporting you. You need to learn how to be a respectful human being.
@andy jonnson you are the child here.
@andy jonnson thank you sweetheart 😘😘
"I have a story"... goes on to give them an 8 hour ghost tale
Read the room lady
It was a David S Pumpkins impersonation vibe
"I am very cross with you," lol i love it
Lol, should we tell Niki that the ghost with the plague mask that made her jump is one that had already been shown many times throughout the episode??
lol i was wondering if they’d notice bc he was so obvious to me the first time i binged it lmao
@@milliaboo765 Sooooo obvious. I thought they were trolling us. 😂
What I got from kids locking her in the closet was they were trying to protect her. It is going to be fun watching the Nikki show! Btw you missed some ghosts in the background.
I think I saw 1 ghost in the background during the entire show and i was trying so hard to find them. Lol.
Yes they were trying to protect her from crossing with the lady in the lake
The lead actress is in season 2 of You on Netflix. You is also a good show for reactions if you guys have space in your schedule. Also the little girl is also the voice of Peppa Pig😂
Yeah, I was watching s2 of You not that long ago (haven't finished it tho), so it felt like she's everywhere. But I don't even see her as Nell in this show, so no issues.
@@kyliem3728 right? She’s a really good actress
hats off to Mike Flanagan again.
edit: love the use of the split diopter shot as well.
those kids blew me with them acting kids, i thought the HHH kids cast were amazing but boy these two were awesome esp when they need to be sinister or creepy
22:24 - if you mean the figure in the extreme foreground her first night, it is a medieval plague doctor who had numerous hidden background moments this episode. As far as I know (haven’t finished the series) they are just reminding you they are doing this again. This one even shows up in one of the paintings during the opening credits!
it was probably my favorite ghost...it made me think: damn some fucked up shit happened in this house for a plague doctor ghost be lingering around
This reaction was perfectly splendid.
drink!
By far the best reaction to Bly Manor 1x01 I've seen thus far. Perfectly Splendid as always Nikki & Steven.
Anyone else feel Flora & Miles are Jane & Michael Banks of Mary Poppins on crack ?
Steven, "American Horror Story" { 9 Seasons | 103 Episodes | Renewed for SE10 - SE13 } on FX is another anthology series that uses the same cast over and over again.
Thank you!!
@@NikkiStevenReact You are very welcome.
Had a chance to binge this over the weekend, kind of love where they went with this. Not looking into it at all, I had no idea it was connected to Hill House through cast making this "The Haunting" an anthology series like American Horror Story (can't wait for season 10).
the plague doctor was in the background a lot. wonder if steven will notie during editing
The uncle told Dani that Ms. Hannah lives in the manor with the kids. Only the cook and the gardener spend the night at their own house and come only to work during the day.
Right, slipped past us
I just finished this season. I think people should go in with the knowledge that this is a completely different story, seems most people are expecting Hill House Pt2. Bly Manor is it's own story and a really beautiful one at that. (I'm still crying) I think it's a great successor to Hill House and I'm actually glad it wasn't as scary as hill house.
I've seen sooo many horrors and creepy shit over the years that nothing really gets to me anymore,but it's always fun to see someone get spooked,thanks Nikki :) looking forward to more of these!
Finished the show last night, absolutely amazing! Can't wait for this journey with you guys.
loved watching the hill house reaction series i’ve watched it 5 times making other people watch it and loved watching you guys react it’s one of the best parts is seeing people experiencing the story for the first time! safe to say i have the post notifications on for this series i was so excited to see you guys watch it!
I binged this show over the week. Excited to see how you guys like it. Also excited you guys finally got into Ozark! Watched all your ozark videos in 1 day!
I'm excited for you guys. I will follow your reaction videos for future episodes. Enjoy! You are in for a treat. And for me, Subscribed!
Actually, up until the mid-19th century most ghost stories were set in then-old castles and the like. When DRACULA and other stories were published Victorian mansions were brand spanking new, the most modern of modern homes.
Love that you guys are already on it just like that. Once again you're the man for the editing steven.
Ps: idk if anyone suggested this before but peaky blinders is one of those shows you guys should also react to on Netflix. The main character would probably be on your honorific list of characters next to jon, ragnar, and Walter
American Horror Story uses most of the same cast every season. WATCH IT.
It’s always fun to watch your reviews! Can’t wait for the next one.
Already binged this show, looking forward to your reactions!
I remember your reactions from last season, it was a blast! As a matter, I hadn't watched the show until you guys started. Once I saw you were reacting to it I binged right through it in a couple days! I even rewatched it again by the time you guys got to the end so I could remember what happened. I've now seen 2 eps of S2, but I wanted to see what you thought of ep1 before I went to far ahead...SO, thank you for getting me into this amazing show!
See ya next vid!! 😁🤘
“Perfectly, SPLENDID...” lol
the lake lady was already walking (if the lake lady is under the cabinet she's is in the lake but if the lake lady is anywhere except under the cabinet the lake lady is outside their door) so they're trying to protect her from the lake lady
I was waiting for you to start this! 😊
Your chanel was the reason I watched The Haunting of Hill House in the first place.
Yay! So glad you’re reacting to this!! Loved Hill House and loved this one too! 🖤
i just rewatched hill house and followed it with your reactions so it felt like i was watching it and BOY am i excited to rewatch this with you.
I love your reaction videos! I watched all your game of thrones ones you guys seem to add in your reactions to all the right parts! So when i saw this pop up on recommended I had to watch
AAAH I really wanted to see your reaction to this season, I personally loved it♥️♥️
Wow I’ve really missed you guys!! I’m so excited! 💖
Watching American Horror Story gets you used to not tying an actor to a character. Good actors will make you forget who they used to play BUT the character that sticks out the most is who you'll refer to them as. Evan Peters from American Horror Story will always be Tate to me. 😁
I wonder what you guys' filming schedule is. No way could I do only one episode a week when the whole series is right there. I marathoned the entire season in one day. I tried to stop after episode 7 but NOPE. Had to know what happened at the end...
Yes!!!! Exactly!!!
@Stannis Baratheon oh ok I'll delete it. But I guess they have seen it in the opening credits still
Yes! Thank you for reacting to this so quickly! I think your reactions to Hill House were how I discovered your channel!
Literally the moment I finished this show I was ready for your reaction 😂😂😂
yeaah i've been waiting for this oneee, love you guyss!!!
So happy you guys have started on this series. Loved your Hill House reactions so much! Y'all get an auto-like from me.
The "brown figure" is a plague doctor in his bird-like mask. He's actually more present in the background a lot if you look closely. You'll see the silhouette the curve of his mask's "beak" and his hat. Something I only picked up watching this reaction is his presence in the bathroom on Dani's first night there. We see Flora walking Dani's doll across the dollhouse bathroom and the plague doctor's doll is there. But you can actually see him behind the bathroom door and in the mirror as she turns off the light.
Jus finished this yesterday, great show, happy to see your reaction
This was great! I'm currently on episode 5, and am loving it. Flora is absolutely adorable, I hope you don't find her too scary LOL!
Mike Flanagan reused several actors from Hill House. Luke, Theo, and Nell, and their father from the flashbacks. Theo (Kate Siegel) is actually Mike Flanagan's wife, and has been in almost everything he's ever made (Oculus, Hush, Gerald's Game, Hill House, Bly Manor, and Midnight Mass). Henry Thomas (young Hugh Crain) and Carla Gugino (Olivia Crane) were both in all three of his Netflix series (Except the Midnight Club). Oliver Jackson-Cohen (Luke) and Victoria Pedretti (Nell) are both in Hill House and Bly Manor. His upcoming series (The Fall of the House of Usher) has Kate Siegel, Henry Thomas, and Carla Gugino once again.
I’m so glad y’all react to this as well !!!
Great reaction guys~! I found this was most fun to watch as a mystery~! If you pay close attention you can kinda figure some things out but STILL get some huge payoffs in the end~
Good morning you two. My coffee is ready and who can ask for a better way to wake up. YAY
Im with you boh that the haunting of hill house is one of my favorite single season shows. You reactions were awesome. Lol. Im so excited for your reactions to bly manor. 😁 lets go!!!
YES!! I have been waiting for this !!!
Imagine spending 14 hours editing those photos to slowly make the eyes disappear and just having to stare at that towards the end of the editing process where it actually looks scary as can be just having to stare at that until it's done
I just ended THHH and starting Bly Manor. I watch your reaction video after each episode… I love you both! Your reactions and thoughts are just like mine and you’re both so funny. Hoping I’ll find a mate that’s into the same shows and can vibe out with me the way you to do with each other. ❤️
I binge watched this show this past weekend. Loved it! It’s got a completely different feel than the first season but it’s amazing regardless
Hey my favorite reactors are back!!! I watched the entire hill house with you guys 😁
First episode and I’ve already had four full body chills! Bring it on!! 😃
Lots of references to hill house here, included... a muted one. A scene where Victoria Pedretti (who makes Dani, in Bly and Nellie in HillHouse) walks on the night going to the kitchen, she has her neck "bent".. or at least the head...
Welll...
I heard the 4th season is coming with Mark Hamill from Star Wars (Luke Skywalker... may the force be with him on this one lol). And its based in a Poe short story, the Fall of Ushers Solar..
omg rewatching it for the second time makes it so different from my first watch ahah!
this first episode was perfectly splendid and i saw that brown figure with the bird nose quiet a few times creepy as hell great reaction from you guys
Im on episode three and im really liking the story so far. Looking forward to watch this with you
Amazing fun fact: the groom at the wedding in the opening scene is Greg Sestero, aka Mark from THE ROOM ("Oh hai Mark!")
Steven "i have this experience at Hill House" ^^
omg I'm so excited for this!!!!
Those big creepy houses are usually the ones that have been built generations back and have hosted a number of generations and tragedies so it makes sense to do scary creepy shows or movies in them
12:22 I said the same thing! Lol. I was all "damn girl you just dont listen."
I completely understand her with repeating stuff! I do that often myself
I just finished watching the last episode tonight - now I kinda wanna go watch the one from 1961 called "The Innocent", that version scared me when I first saw it - I was still a teen when I saw it in the 70's...
American Horror Story did the "same cast, different story every season" thing. I would LOVE to see your reaction to the first season!! It's a truly awesome show with great twists, acting and story!
Can't wait to see all the episodes because this not what you think... it is my fav the haunting story of all the time ❤❤❤ there are BEAUTIFUL stories in this one 💔 be prepared you will love it.
“Oh god, she’s adorable!”
You mispronounced “weird”.
How dare you
She's perfectly splendid.
she's kinda both. Perfectly splendid
After this episode, I was like que the "splendid" merch LOL
I've been waiting for this!!!

Just come across your watch of this series I've just binge watched. New sub, you're really going to enjoy this, maybe enjoy is the wrong word lol
This show i am loving it so far!!!!
I hope you guys are enjoying it too.
Aaron and Melanie (Blind Wave) have already started this and I was wondering if you guys would too! Your HH reactions were perfectly splendid, so I’m excited for this one. My arm’s ready” LOL Steve good to know!
I HAVE WAITED SO MUCH FOR THIS REACTION
Great reaction. Stuff will definitely make sense as the series goes on. :)
I watched Hill House with you guys bc I was chicken and now I'm watching Bly Manor with you guys. Thanks for being my horror buddies xD
Keep’em coming!😆👍 Loved your reactions🧡🖤
Bly Manor is less scary than Hill House in my opinion but just as beautiful. It explores love, pain, trauma and loss and they did it again with hitting you in the feels. Just as beautiful and heartbreaking
I've only watched one episode so far. Don't forget about the hidden ghosts! I saw quite a few in the first episode. I did have to rewind to see a few though once it clicked in my head that Hill House liked to add them.
I tried looking out for hidden ghosts but I think i saw 1 or 2 through the whole season. I must be blind
Yesyesyesyesyesyes! I’ve been waiting for you to react to this! I loved your reactions to hill house! I just love you! Greetings from Sweden haha ty
I can´t wait for you to react to every episode!!!!!
Trailer for season 5 of The Expanse is out. It premiers Dec 16th. Also would love if you guys considered reacting to Hannibal the series! Enjoying these reactions and can't wait to see more of them . Thank you!
I love love love watching your reactions on TWD but now the 2nd season of Netflix Haunting series...I'm gonna go and check out your Hill House because I missed those. I'm excited I love you guys.
super excited for this! i loved your guys' hill house reactions. i loved bly manor so much, no spoilers obviously but its beautiful. and obviously creepy as hell lol
