first of all, the trailers make it look like Insidious or something, which it isn't at all. That's the most deceptive marketing plan I've seen in a long time, no wonder word of mouth is bad when people go in there expecting the totally wrong thing.
SO. Go in expecting Gothic. Romance. with some ghosts and jump scares, but seriously that is not the point. The point is the beautiful house and the fucked up characters who inhabit it, and the plucky heroine who finds love amid a lot of really creepy but beautiful things. The house set really is amazing and I want all the fic about these people, because there is just SO MUCH there that's touched on but needs, like, a whole series of novels about it. *sigh*
And as token of that, seeing it has made me change my mind about my nano project, and now I think I will go back to the ghost story I thought about and do that one, because now I'm all about that, and at least it's inspiring, right? The other idea will save for later.
ALso, I am SO TEMPTED to write a thing wherein Eve meets a young Thomas after Adam has died, and she saves him. Because why not combine all my gohic trash fandoms in one story? (I am so predictable, I know)
