I remember hearing about this story on the news and thought it was an odd story. Im watching it now. So far so good.

I read a super long, detailed write up on this story a few months ago. Wild stuff.

The supposedly true story this is based on is spooky as hell.

I am not convinced the family didn't just make up the story though.

But this family stalker story doesn't even compare to The Omnivore Trials. Google it if you're unfamiliar, it's pure nightmare fuel.

It was stupid and boring, very slow pace and there is no supernatural element to it at all.

Was there supposed to be? It's not a ghost story

Exactly.

We watched the first two episodes last night, and enjoyed it. I love Naomi Watts though. She's one of my favorites. I like Bobby Cannavale too. Underrated actor.

I read the story. Do you think the family came out ahead between whatever book deals they did and eventually selling the house? They make it seem like they lost money, what would the point be of doing it if its a couple hundred thousand dollar mistake

Watched the 4th episode and a unbelievably stupid plot line.

*Spoiler Alert* Did anyone even think that the security kid the accused of being the watcher was WAY too young to have written those previous owners those letters? Not one character thought it out? Not even the loopy PI?

I eliminated him immediately as a suspect because of it.

I can imagine how the rest of the story goes and no thanks.

Check out "I See You." It's a movie from 2019 that stars Helen Hunt and Jon Tenney. Not exactly a horror movie, but parts of it are very creepy. The movie changes the POV at the halfway mark, so you see all of the previous events from someone else's perspective.

Watching it now and I'm on about the 5th episode and its about to wear me out I'm ready for it to be over.
Soon as I'm done typing this I'm going to see how many damn episodes there are left I'm so over it.

The first 3 episodes were pretty good. Shortly into the 4th it got so corny I stopped and probably will not finish it. Too many good shows to keep watching and ones.

Why not two different people writing the letters. More plausible than a baby-blood drinking satan cult.

Finally finished. Not a good show. Twists were stupid. Characters unlikeable.

Was excited to see this but reviews aren't good. Will probably skip this one.
