Just read this quite recently. Really hope it's a good adaptation because the writing was chilling
Mike flanagan always does great work, but you should temper your expectations for how much of an "adaptation" this will be. Elements of the story will be present for sure but flanagan tends to take a pretty transformative approach to the works he adapts for his shows. Haunting of Hill House is thematically similar in some ways to the novel it's based on, but shares few narrative similarities.
To be fair fall of the house of usher is a very short and atmospheric story. A movie adaptation would need transformation. I only hope that he is able to capture its miasma.
