The Haunting of Bly Manor is the second season of Flanagan’s horror anthology series The Haunting, following 2018’s hit The Haunting of Hill House. The new season, inspired by Henry James’ classic novella The Turn of the Screw, will feature a number of familiar faces from Season 1, including Kate Siegel, Victoria Pedretti, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, and Henry Thomas.
Flanagan has teased, “For Henry James fans, it’s going to be pretty wild, and for people who aren’t familiar with his work, it’s going to be unbelievably scary.”
The Haunting of Bly Manor is expected to premiere on Netflix in 2020.
