Netflix has released their first look at Mike Flanagan’s latest horror odyssey The Fall Of The House Of Usher. Starring Carla Gugino, the limited series will consist of eight episodes.

“From Mike Flanagan, the creator of The Haunting of Hill House and Midnight Mass, a wicked horror series based on the works of Edgar Allan Poe. Ruthless siblings Roderick and Madeline Usher have built Fortunato Pharmaceuticals into an empire of wealth, privilege and power,” the description reads. “But past secrets come to light when the heirs to the Usher dynasty start dying at the hands of a mysterious woman from their youth.”

Flanagan and Michael Fimognari will each direct four episodes of The Fall Of The House Of Usher, while the former will executive produce alongside Trevor Macy, Emmy Grinwis and Michael Fimognari.

“It’s bats**t crazy in the best possible way,” Gugino said in an interview with Netflix’s TUDUM. “It has quite a lot of very dark humor, but also really touches the soul. There is a fantastical supernatural element to the story, and she is the manifestation of that. You could say she’s the executor of fate or the executor of karma.”

Aside from Gugino, The Fall Of The House Of Usher also stars Mary McDonnell, Carl Lumbly, Mark Hamill, Michael Trucco, T’Nia Miller, Paola Nunez, Henry Thomas, Kyleigh Curran, Samantha Sloyan, Rahul Kohli, Kate Siegel, Sauriyan Sapkota, Zach Gilford, Willa Fitzgerald, Katie Parker, Malcolm Goodwin, Crystal Balint, Aya Furukawa, Daniel Jun, Matt Biedel, Ruth Codd, Annabeth Gish, Igby Rigney and Robert Longstree.

The Fall Of The House Of Usher will be released on Thursday, October 12.
