Discussion question:
Dr.
Montague says that “evil is the [Hill] house itself […] it has
enchained and destroyed its people and their lives, it is a place of
contained ill will” (75). What makes a house “haunted” or “evil”? We
might return to our discussion of Poe (and Epstein’s) “Fall of the House
of Usher.” Can you think of any other examples in horror literature or
film where a place is the origin for terror? 
Please refer to specific passages from The Haunting of Hill House in your response.
