This show was really great, but at first I didn't like the ending until I thought about it a bit and realized that the house won. It got 3/7 of the Cranes, it got all the Dudleys, it got fed. It ruined these people's lives for decades and sure, they seem to be finally getting better in the end, but they're only just starting to put together what the house broke in each of them. It's like addiction - just because you stop using doesn't mean you're not an addict. Steven's final speech about ghosts being guilt, secrets, regrets, failings and wishes fits in that the their return to their house lets them finally leave behind their ghosts in Hill House and move past it, but they're still forever effected.

The family drama is what the show is about.

Elissimpark posted:I'm not sure the Dudley's thought through their endgame. Probably because I currently have an 8 week old baby, my first thought when Clara Dudley ghosted up with her daughter and the baby was "enjoy your eternal newborn, idiot." I love having kids, but I'm glad they stop being babies eventually. Counterpoint: As a ghost, that baby will never get hungry or tired, so maybe less screaming?
