"The Bent-Neck Lady"

The ending of this episode was one of the most shocking things we have ever witnessed. Absolutely INSANE writing and film-making!! We were hooked before, but now we are definitely not putting this one down. Unreal.

The full length version is still processing and will be up as soon as it's done. We will get our editing schedule more consistent in order to make sure these come out earlier in the day. Sorry for the last few late posts!
Thanks for all of your support here on Patreon! Until the next one!

Such a good episode, it always gets me teary-eyed

Anders Thomsen

That's the thing about this series. It starts out scary, but then you realize that it gets more and more tragic

Charles Malo

who else was waiting for this episode AND waiting for "That scene" later ? ;) thumbs up if you're waiting like me.

Just my interpretation of it but I think Nell was sensitive to her own death and was having premonitions of it all her life. Haunted by her own self all her life, which is an interesting way to think about her mental health issues too. Poor Nell and Luke keep saying they just want someone to believe them, it's so sad.

fr0st

Oh, and I don't know if you caught her saying that she felt the detox when Luke went into rehab (she felt like she had the flu and was really sick) so she goes off her own meds so that Luke can detox too. It's a twin thing.

Also this episode is the saddest to me because we can see Nell reaching out to her siblings one by one and nobody supports her or has time for her, and in Steve's case, is really mean to her too. Poor Nell.

I can't believe we're getting this almost a week early. Thank you for this treat. I've been anticipating your drops now cuz of this show. Im here for anime but even more so for this series lol and I've only just started it last week. I'm HOOKED! This was a very sad episode. Poor Nelly. R.I.P 🙏

Now you've seen each of the character focused episodes, might be worth reviewing what you noticed and saw from each characters traits and stories. The themes of the show heavily resonate with a thread that passes between the family members and their core personalities. I won't say much more because it'd be cool to see if you can catch the symbolic nature of it but when you do realise it, it makes the show even cooler. We're now caught up with the lead up to Nel's death, now we're entering uncharted territory. Also there's a common thread for the women in the Crain family having some form of sensory/perception powers, after all their mother said that their grandmother possessed it when talking with Theo about hers. It's also made me think that Luke may possess a small portion of it despite it going against the status quo due to his close connection to Nel due to being her twin. It's highly likely that the bent neck lady was Nel's ability to sense her own death or at least was highly sensitive to the sense of death generally and her own death obviously manifested the strongest.

Absolutely. I said just this on the previous episode, episode 6 is probably the best episode to have ever been made. It is a pure masterpiece.

Peter Schön

It is still scary. Many of the things happening and when you realize it then it almost make it even more creepy in my opinion.

This episode, with Nell as the Bent Neck Lady and with their mother writing 'Welcome Home, Nell' (a message they could see on the wall as children), really sets the rule for this show that if you're dead, time is not linear. The future constantly affects the past in the story, which is an important thing to note going forward.

Watching this episode starts out with expectations set by the first four, knowing you’re going to find out more information while seeing spooky things, and ends with you questioning every day reality. And I love it. It’s just an amazing, terrifying, tragic story. Looking forward to episode 6!!

Craig Beattie

This reaction is hilarious 😂 Seeing you two go through every emotion was too funny. I hope you carry on with more horror related content when this series is done.

I can’t remember how many times I’ve seen this episode, but it makes me cry every time. It’s so heartbreaking- how she was looking for help, not getting it from her family, and not getting any good help or advice from her therapist. And of course the entire love story is beautiful and heart wrenching. She just needed to be heard, and she lost the one person that gave her that. I’ve rarely ever used Patreon, but I had to get ahead on your AOT reactions, and I couldn’t wait for this series to hit YouTube. Both of your perception and empathy makes watching with you guys really enjoyable. Keep it up, girls! 💗

I feel like I sympathize with Steve more than most people do. Yes, he can be a jerk and callous to the other family members, but he wasn't always this way. When they were kids, Steve was the responsible, supportive older brother, and I think it's fair to say he continued to be this into adulthood based on what we see in some flashbacks. Things started to really fall apart for him after he published Hill House. Writing is Steve's passion, and his dream is to be able to support himself and his family as an author. We know that before Steve wrote Hill House, he was writing historical fiction, and it wasn't selling. He was essentially watching his dream die, but there was a glimmer of hope. If he wrote a book about Hill House, he could have everything he ever wanted. He tries to be respectful and ask his siblings for their input, but none of them even give him a chance. Shirley especially makes him choose between his dream and his family. Steve chooses to follow his dream, hoping things will resolve themselves within the family. Obviously, they never really do. For years, Steve has to live with Shirley and Theo throwing the book in his face and icing him out, and that makes him bitter. Everything with Luke just piles onto the stress Steve is already facing over the book and just serves to make him even more bitter. So, when Nell suddenly starts giving him shit over the book (in front of a room full of his fans--I can only imagine how humiliating that would be), Steve really snaps and definitely takes things too far. It's easy to feel bad for Nell in that scene--and you should, but I think it's also fair to feel bad for Steve. I also think that writing about Hill House is Steve's way of coping with what happened there. All of the siblings have their coping mechanisms. Writing is Steve's.

I'm sure someone else has said by now, but as she fell to her death, Nell slipped through time in reverse, to each moment in her life where she was haunted by her own death. So we start with slipping from the instant of her death to just hours before when the bent-neck lady appeared in the hotel hallway (you asked at that moment if the bent-neck lady had a bent neck because she was hanged, which was awesome), and then each slip takes us further and further back until we get to the very first time Nell saw her own death in her bedroom as a small child. And of course the "no no no" and the final scream was Nell at the instant she died, realizing that her life and death were locked in place the moment the family stepped foot in that house. Someone above commented that in this show, it becomes obvious that "if you're dead, time is non-linear" - which is how this episode can mix past with present and "skip" time here and there -- you'll note Nell only starts losing time (I think you called it a trance) as her death approaches. I loved that you were theorizing about the five senses and the five kids, even though it didn't turn out to be true - that's the kind of reaction I like to watch, where the reactors are actively engaged with the material and trying to puzzle things out, rather than just letting it wash over them. And yeah, as several people say above - the next episode is a masterpiece of filmmaking. And we're all waiting for That One Scene....

I binged this show the same day it aired and watching "That" scene in this episode has scared me so bad That there is a place I till this day cannot walk because it reminds me of this.

Matthew Clark

The actor playing Nell’s psychiatrist (Russ Tamblyn) also played the original “Luke” in “The Haunting”, the 1963 adaptation

Matthew Clark

Russ Tamblyn also played the hilariously inept psychiatrist Dr. Lawrence Jacoby on “Twin Peaks” (who also had a female patient that died after poor treatment). I don’t know if that was an intentional callback on Flanagan’s part, but it’s a fun bit of “member berries” for the ‘80s and ‘90s kids out there.

The reveal that Nell was the bent neck lady shocked me into oblivion when I first saw it. What a great show this is
