Mike Flanagan is back with another horror story outing. This time his mini-series, The Fall of the House of Usher is a creation based on Edgar Allan Poe’s work by the same name.
In a modern retelling of the tragic tale that befell the once-revered House of Usher, this series brings to light the perils of striving for too much. This family has spent generations amassing wealth, prestige, and privilege.
