The Haunting of Hill House
My set design for The Haunting of Hill House started with my passion for its source novel by Shirley Jackson. I wanted the design to reflect the rich history of the supernatural genre, particularly referencing the monochromatic windowless rooms in Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Masque of the Red Death”.
