The Fall of The House of Usher: About the Game
The Fall of the House of Usher, a short story by Edgar Allan Poe first published in 1839, remains one of his most well-known pieces. The narrator comes to his boyhood buddy Roderick Usher’s dilapidated ancestral home. Roderick is convinced he will soon pass away. Roderick shares a home with his lovely twin sister Madeline and the eerie, preoccupied, unwell Roderick.
After the narrator’s initial visit, Roderick informs him that Madeline has passed away and requests his assistance in burying Madeline’s remains in the family vault. However, Roderick quickly deteriorates in the days that follow Madeline’s passing and burial before finally coming clean about his horrified suspicion that Madeline is still alive and locked in the tomb. Before fleeing for his life, the narrator sees Madeline’s bloody return and attack on her brother. He also observes the home disintegrate into two halves and fall into a lake from a distance.
The Fall of the House of Usher: Producers
The fifth Intrepid Pictures project from Mike Flanagan and Trevor Macy to be released on Netflix is The Fall of the House of Usher. Intrepid also produced two other anthology series, the critically acclaimed Midnight Mass (2021) and the recently cancelled The Midnight Club (2022), in addition to the two Haunting anthology programs. Four of the eight episodes of the miniseries will be directed by Flanagan and Michael Fimognari.
The project’s executive producers include Fimognari, Emmy Grinwis, and Trevor Macy. A problem occurred in April 2022 when Frank Langella, who had been cast as Roderick Usher, was replaced by Bruce Greenwood, even though most characters had been cast by the end of 2021. The series was filmed at Bridge Studios in British Columbia, as were many of Flanagan’s earlier productions, and it was finished on July 9, 2022.
The Fall of the House of Usher: Cast

Carla Gugino (The Haunting of Hill House, The Haunting of Bly Manor), Kate Siegel (Midnight Mass), Annabeth Gish (The Haunting of Hill House, Midnight Mass), Henry Thomas (Gerald’s Game, Doctor Sleep), and Rahul Kohli (Midnight Mass, The Haunting of Bly Manor) are a few of the well-known actors from his previous productions.
Roderick Usher and Bruce Greenwood of “Doctor Sleep”, star in the limited series. Mark Hamill will portray Arthur Pym, the family lawyer, Mary McDonnell (Dances with Wolves, Donnie Darko) has been cast as Madeline Usher. C. Auguste Dupin, Poe’s quintessential detective, is played by Carl Lumbly. Willa Fitzgerald, T’Nia Miller, Sauriyan Sapkota, Zach Gilford, Katie Parker, Michael Trucco, Malcolm Goodwin, Crystal Balint, Kyleigh Curran, Paola Nuez, Aya Furukawa, Matt Biedel, Daniel Jun, Ruth Codd, Robert Longstreet, and Igby Rigney are some of the other actors who were cast.
