The new adaptation of Shirley Jackson's WE HAVE ALWAYS LIVED IN THE CASTLE is fantastic. Spooky dramatic thriller with a ton of rural Gothic stuff happening. This won't be for everybody who loved Netflix's THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE. Quite different. But the screenplay sticks incredibly close to the source material, & the changes made benefit the story. Taissa Farmiga, Alexanda Daddario, Crispin Glover, & Sebastian Stan are all stellar in their roles. Highly recommended, particularly for fans of the original Jackson novel. #Horror #Gothic #ShirleyJackson #HorrorMovies #Creepy #TaissaFarmiga #InstaHorror #HorrorFan #SympatheticMagic #WeHaveAlwaysLivedInTheCastle #AlexandraDaddario #CrispinGlover #Thriller #Film #Movies #StaciePasson
