From the creator of The Haunting of Bly Manor and Hill House comes TheFall of The House of Usher, death prevails — but the difference is that there’s no happy ending. The miniseries, directed by Mike Flanagan, is inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s eponymous short story. The cast includes actors from previous works by Flanagan, including Kate Siegel, Carla Gugino, Rahul Kohli, and Henry Thomas.

The series begins with Roderick Usher (Bruce Greenwood) attending a funeral for his adult children, all of whom suffered gory deaths. He later invites Auguste Dupin (Carl Lumbly), a detective, to confess that his family rose to wealth selling harmful substances.

The show then continues to reveal hidden secrets and expose his children’s disturbing personalities — and their ultimate downfall as a family.

The series is not for the faint of heart: “You know, to a certain extent, that this family is doomed, but just the creativity with the way they dispatch people — it’s very clever and it’s beyond ghoulish, and it certainly puts your trivial everyday problems in perspective,” Mark Hamill (who plays Pym Reaper) told TUDUM.

While it may leave you hanging at the end, with some questions unanswered, the message they conveyed was no debt is left unsettled even with blood.
