Share

Midnight Mass director Mike Flanagan has another horror project in the works for Netflix alongside Intrepid Pictures, The Fall of the House of Usher.

The limited series, inspired by the works of Edgar Allan Poe, receives its title from the short story of the same name originally published in 1893. While details on the series are scarce in its beginning, Netflix did announce that the series will tell its story across eight episodes.

Flanagan will be the writer for the fifth series under Intrepid Films for Netflix following the success of The Haunting of Hill House, The Haunting of Bly Manor, the recently released Midnight Mass and upcoming series The Midnight Club. In addition to writing, Flanagan will direct half of the series’ episodes with frequent collaborator Michael Fimognari directing the other half.

The Fall of the House of Usher does not currently have a release date, so while we await more details be sure to check out our episode recaps for Midnight Mass.
