Mike Flanagan, creator of The haunting anthology series, has set up its latest Netflix project.
The man behind the recently launched horror miniseries Midnight Mass landed a serial order for limited drama The fall of House Usher.
The project is based on several works by Edgar Allan Poe. Although the streamer has not disclosed plot details, The Fall of House Usher is short story written by Poe. First published in 1893, it presents themes of madness, family, isolation and metaphysical identities.
The series, which was created by Flanagan, who will also direct, is produced by the author with his partner Intrepid Pictures Trevor Macy as well as Emmy Grinwis and Michael Fimognari. Melinda Nishioka of Intrepid Pictures will co-produce the project.
Fimognari and Flanagan will each direct four episodes.
The eight-part limited series bears no relation to Flanagan’s earlier work and is a stand-alone story.
The Fall of House Usher marks the fifth series for Intrepid Pictures as part of its global deal after The Haunting of Hill House, The Haunting of Bly Manor, Midnight Mass and upcoming series The midnight club.
