The follow-up to The Haunting of Hill House is based on Henry James’ 1898 gothic horror novella The Turn of the Screw, which is set at an old country mansion. "While Hill House was the story of family struggle and trauma, Bly Manor is about broken hearts that never heal and tragic star-crossed romance," according to Vanity Fair. “It certainly provides a new way to tell a love story, and there are three of them that really beat at the heart of this season,” says creator Mike Flanagan. “They all have a very dark edge to them. And by the end, it’s really hard to differentiate tragedy with romance. That sense of romantic longing for someone who meant so much to us—but who’s gone—really is the heart of any ghost story.”
