Let's discuss "Haunting of Hill House"

[Desdemona]

Was the house really haunted? What was really going on? The author doesn't exactly come out and say anything specific, so we can all use our imagination to come up with our own conclusions.

I think the house was definitely haunted, but it only fed off those minds that were already weak and vulnerable. People like Eleanor were the most susceptible to being victims.

This is why the Professor's wife was not affected. Even though she may have wanted to believe, she was a no-nonsense, confident woman who could not be victimized by the house.

Why and by whom the house was haunted, I'll have to think about that one.
