EARLY ACCESS: The Fall of the House of Usher FULL REACTION (Patreon)
Content
In the first episode, the show introduces its primary characters and offers a concise overview of its premise. Additionally, it delves into Roderick's background, revealing details about his parents and the enigmatic woman from his past.
One of the most captivating aspects of this episode is its visually stunning imagery. Despite the brevity of Roderick's hallucinations, they leave a lasting and disquieting impression.
Following the funeral ceremony, a crow makes an appearance, drawing parallels to Edgar Allan Poe's literature, where crows symbolize eternal sorrow. Given Roderick's tragic loss of all his children, this symbolism takes on a poignant and haunting significance.
The episode's ingenious use of sound proved to be both frightening and praiseworthy. The subtle ticking of a clock in the background during the scene where Roderick and Madeline reach out to their resurrected mother adds to the eerie atmosphere. The sound, if attentively listened to, becomes exceptionally unsettling, enhancing the overall sense of dread.
