“I was screaming and shouting and none of you could see me” Just a beautiful parallel about how she kept telling them about her ghost and no one payed attention
This scene makes me feel like they caught how depression and suicidal thoughts feel. When your family gets a glimpse they get scared but never really see it. If feels like no one can see you
I agree, but I also see it from a flipped angle: Loved ones who suffer from suicidal thoughts and depression become so wrapped in their inner demons, they don't notice you trying to make them feel better, because sometimes NOTHING CAN make them feel better. Then we get frustrated, saddened, or lost not knowing how to help. You just want to scream and tell them you love them, but they can't see & hear you. You're just...not there.
They can't bear the thought that you might take your life, dude. They just can't. Or what they could have done differently earlier on in your life to help things turn out a different way. It torments them. So they turn aside.
The girl who plays young Nell is so incredibly talented for her age. This scene especially hits hard because poor young Nell already starts suffering so much from a young age.
This scene hits a lot harder when you think about the very first episode and how Nell calls her siblings and basically most of them just ignore her. A great example of the “never take things (or in this case, a person) for granted”.
Yeah, that's probably why theo broke down after touching her not because of her death but how they basically ignored her feelings which indirectly led to her death
no i don’t think that’s why she broke down. she broke down because she felt the black nothingness of death/the void in her sisters lifeless body (she says it)
My favorite scene was the long one-take shot that also took place in this funeral, where the camera was spinning slowly and the characters are replaced by the younger of themselves as the camera rotates.
I like how we all thought the bent-neck lady was a demonic and harmful entity but the more we learned its story, the bent-neck lady was Nell this whole time, it was just a lost and vulnerable entity begging to be seen and heard. I used to be scared, but now I cry when I see the bent-neck lady
When they all come to Nell and the lights come back on....Ahhhhh, why does that always get to me? It shows how she was their light in the darkness, the one who looked up to her siblings and parents with absolutely no baggage in her heart. And the "I was screaming and crying and none of you could see me" brb eyes getting blurry
“I was right here… I didn’t go anywhere. I was right here. I was right here the whole time. None of you could see me. Nobody could see me…” God… it’s so heartbreaking. And it hurts more when it’s her child self so this sad little girl’s voice just STABS ME THROUGH THE HEART.
One of the sadest scenes I've ever watched in a TV show. I know she is a ghost and it is supposed to be scary as well, but any fear I could possibly feel just became shrinking small compared to how heartbroken I was while watching this.
I'd say the ghost was only supposed to be scary when we didn't yet know who she was or what her intentions were. By this point in the story, we've learned that the Bent-Neck Lady was poor Nell all along, and now despite her frightening appearance, the sight of that ghost just makes you feel sad.
poor nell. she deserved so much better. her story will always make me cry. 00:32 love how luke is softly and gently holding her hand. it was always luke, the only one always there for her.
The sad thing is that his own demons kept him from being there physically - and when he was he guilted her into getting him "well" one more time. I can't imagine how that kind of guilt felt for him thereafter.
This whole episode is my favorite and this scene made me more emotional than the whole show because how much I relate to Nell feeling like nobody can see her. Because I’m autistic and my whole life nobody has understood me and saw me as a nuisance instead of understanding my struggles and helping me, and I have to “mask” all my autistic traits to not freak anyone out or be a burden to anyone, to the point where the the issues get so bad that I try to take my life in hopes of everyone seeing me. “I was right here the whole time but you couldn’t see me. Nobody could see me.”
Hey, I just watched this show yesterday and I saw this comment and I just wanted to tell you that I don't understand what it's like to be you, but I can say that there are people in this world who would totally accept you for all that you are and all that you want to be. Autism isn't something that you should ever have to hide, as is any sort of condition that anyone goes through. I hope someday you feel comfortable enough to not feel ashamed of yourself. You are NOT a burden. You're a human being, and you're alive. That's beautiful. I hope you have a great day!
Can u give me some tips too? on how to hide everything inside me perfectly.... I hate making people realize how broken I am... Cuz all of them thinks I'm just a hypocrite 🙂
It’s fascinating how they portray the house as something of a nocturnal predator animal who sleep in the day and hunts at night making it sorta save only when the sun is still up
@@kamilasmosna5821 Very good point and absolutely critical to the nature of the house. It is cunning and cruel, and it operates on false and real patterns/"rules" that destabilize and terrorize its inhabitants, tenderizing them with fear and distrust and hopelessness. Even the idea that the house is safer in daylight, which plays on human feelings of security in light, is a lie. It is merely a different stage of danger.
This scene breaks my heart. Its just so great but heartbreaking. Nellie's life was so tragic...No one ever believed her or Luke, even in adulthood. Phenomenal writing and the actors are amazing.
Heartbreaking scene. Was not expecting this show to be so emotional. Poor Nell. Everything that happened to her revolved around her own death. Her tormented, deformed ghost standing right there and her family had no idea. Makes the last episode even more bittersweet. She's not alone anymore.
This moment hits different as the youngest child in the family. Timid, docile, well-behaved. Always the smallest person in the room. Thinking you have the power to somehow mend all the broken pieces together, while you have no voice in what’s about to happen. You were right there and nobody could see you.
I have never cried as much as I did over a TV show character. This ending broke me, and I literally cried for two hours straight. So damn heartbreaking....incredible writing.
Just how I feel every single day of my life. Actually why am I here if nobody can see me. What am I actually doing here. I feel that I don't even serve a purpose.
Aww, she's so sweet as well ❤️🥺 No one will ever love me so I will never be able to hold a child of my own in my arms.... i wish her and you all peace in this current reality 🙏🌌
Because Theo has more of a filled out face, that's not a knock on either character or actress, and when you hang... Your face swells. I thought that too in one of my first viewings! 😢 Brilliant show.
For me, it's a metaphor for yielding or fighting love or fear like Steve says. You can't do both and you can't deal with either halfway. They were just scared...and it's hard to love someone unconditionally when you're scared all the time
1. House made her invisible to play with their minds. 2. She and Luke were the youngest of them, therefore hill house's effect on them was much worse. It made the twins 'deranged adults' in the eyes of their elderly siblings. So no matter how much they tried to tell their siblings about their troubles, they never cared enough. Therefore Nelly was 'there all the time' but 'nobody could see her'.
"Maybe I'm A Ghost" Sometimes I think I'm a ghost Because I'm invisible And no one can see or hear me Maybe that's how it's supposed to be Maybe I'm not supposed to be seen Maybe I'm not supposed to be heard Maybe I'm not supposed to be known Maybe I'm not supposed to be alive Sometimes I wonder Am I even alive? Because I feel dead inside Or I feel alive in the worst way Maybe that's the problem Maybe I'm supposed to be dead Maybe I'm supposed to be gone Maybe I'm supposed to be quiet Maybe I'm supposed to be invisible Sometimes I ponder Why am I even here? Because no one wants me Maybe that's not the right question Maybe I'm just stupid Maybe I don't understand Maybe I did something wrong Maybe it's all my fault Sometimes I think I'm a ghost And no one can see or hear me Maybe that's how it's supposed to be Maybe I'm not supposed to live Maybe I'm a ghost *I wrote this last year when I was suicidal. I hadn't even seen this episode yet, which I find absolutely wild. Needless to say, I really love, feel for, and relate to Nellie.

And it was her, no one could see her then or now

@@DigiDestined558 that reminds me so much of corpse bride
Yes... 😣it hurts so much

Yup. Everybody runs. No matter what anybody or the fucking media says. You end up alone. Cause people are scared to the core.
The girl who plays young Nell is so incredibly talented for her age. This scene especially hits hard because poor young Nell already starts suffering so much from a young age.
Mike Flanagan knows how to pick and direct child actors.
She was literally six when they filmed this
She also appeared in Black Widow, and did a great job there too.
@@stephenblack5425 she was?
@@in_vino_veritas7938 yup
She knocked over her own casket to get them to stop fighting and arguing.
Exactly!
This part has always been so sad to me. It gets me every time I see it.

The last "nobody could see me" at the end is absolute chills
Never thought this show would scare me and make me cry
This is the most brilliant scene in any show I have ever seen. Give this writer an award 👏🏽
My favorite scene was the long one-take shot that also took place in this funeral, where the camera was spinning slowly and the characters are replaced by the younger of themselves as the camera rotates.
Agreed the way my mouth dropped at the "nobody could see me"

God… it’s so heartbreaking. And it hurts more when it’s her child self so this sad little girl’s voice just STABS ME THROUGH THE HEART.
This is honestly one of the most powerful scenes I've ever seen in any TV show

It wasn't "supposed to be" scary at all.
Currently rewatching Hill House and we just finished this scene so of course I had to look it up while eating dinner to cry AGAIN 😭😭😭😭
Lmao right? Why do I go OUT OF MY WAY to look up the sad nell scenes, just to cry?!
poor nell. she deserved so much better. her story will always make me cry. 00:32 love how luke is softly and gently holding her hand. it was always luke, the only one always there for her.

@mauriciomendoza720 even sadder when you think about the fact that that was the last time he saw her
This scene always makes me cry😭😭

But the house played it's tricks all along during the day time too

Ugh! Poor Nell! I haven’t felt this heartbroken for a ghost since Patrick Swayze’s character in ghost.
0:39 "come on, we'll see her tomorrow"
How true that was 🥺
omg I didn't realize
What does that mean I don't get it
It's incredible how an horror series can make you feel terrified and emotional at the same time...
This scene breaks my heart. Its just so great but heartbreaking. Nellie's life was so tragic...No one ever believed her or Luke, even in adulthood. Phenomenal writing and the actors are amazing.
this scene actually broke me
Heartbreaking scene. Was not expecting this show to be so emotional. Poor Nell. Everything that happened to her revolved around her own death. Her tormented, deformed ghost standing right there and her family had no idea. Makes the last episode even more bittersweet. She's not alone anymore.
Best scene in the entire series, I forgot the entire storyline, but never this one scene "I was right here", the pain you feel for her...
This is imo the best/most heartbreaking cinematic episode of the series, this scene in particular 😢
This moment hits different as the youngest child in the family. Timid, docile, well-behaved. Always the smallest person in the room. Thinking you have the power to somehow mend all the broken pieces together, while you have no voice in what’s about to happen. You were right there and nobody could see you.
Ooooofff...
This scene has really stuck with me since I first watched the show. This whole episode could’ve just been a movie. Really well done.
I have never cried as much as I did over a TV show character. This ending broke me, and I literally cried for two hours straight. So damn heartbreaking....incredible writing.
that mf house!!!!! my blood is still boiling none of them deserved any of that 😭
if you tell me you didn't cry during this scene then you're either lying or failed to connect with the show.
That is just heart breaking
Fuck this is a powerful scene
So sad, haunting and beautiful at the same time. This show is a masterpiece. 💜 ✨
I come back to this video every month just to let it out
Oh I cried so much in this part 🥺🥺🥺
Just how I feel every single day of my life. Actually why am I here if nobody can see me. What am I actually doing here. I feel that I don't even serve a purpose.
I felt like that for a long time. Idk what your circumstances are but you'll find your purpose someday. Hope you're doing ok buddy
how to make good horror: include as much melodrama as humanly possible
One of the most saddest, powerful tearjerker of all time for me.
Idk how they made a scene so terrifying and so sad at the same time.
This scene is one of a handful of scenes in movies or TV shows that has genuinely saddened me. Usually I'm pretty stoic, but this one really hit hard.
One of the saddest parts of the show. Dead nell being right there and no one could see her 🤧
i’m rewatching hill house right now with my brother who has never seen it before, i just know i’m gonna cry like i do every time 😭
Lord, I cry so much everytime I see this episode... Averytime i THINK of this episode. Nell destroyed me T_T
I swear... I never in a million years would think the sight of a ghostly apparition would make me cry so hard... this was such an emotional ending.
Still one of my favorite episodes of all the series that I watched
❤️
omg this is not just a TV series
I don’t think I’ve ever cried so much than when I watched this episode. This entire show was a true masterpiece.
I can’t stop watching this
I feel bad for Luke and Nell as a child & adult Luke.
The end of that scene, seeing poor Nell just standing there looking heartbroken absolutely breaks me. I always end up crying a little
the last scene is a very scary scene, but none of us were scared... its just sad
The best scene
Aww, she's so sweet as well ❤️🥺 No one will ever love me so I will never be able to hold a child of my own in my arms.... i wish her and you all peace in this current reality 🙏🌌
Ugh. Tears.
This is my favorite scene. It always makes me cry.
Why does Nell in the coffin look more like the Theo actress than the Nell actress?
Because Theo has more of a filled out face, that's not a knock on either character or actress, and when you hang... Your face swells. I thought that too in one of my first viewings! 😢
Brilliant show.
"Nobody could see me"
This is legitimately what being transgender feels like except i dont have a luke :(
Man, this show is unbelievably good.
As if it was plotted to be this. All of them were totally blinded except her . All trying to reach her but also straying away from her.
This scene literally break my heart ❤❤❤
❤
Story of my life what she says. 🤣
Thank you for putting this clip up.
One of the best scenes
Eu estava aqui o tempo todo.. :/
So ScArY
So was she there or not
She was there for all of it
Yes
Nell is the one who knocked over the casket to get everyone to stop fighting and arguing.
I didnt understand, why couldnt anyone see her??
there wasn't a real reason, it was just a metaphor for the present day nell
For me, it's a metaphor for yielding or fighting love or fear like Steve says. You can't do both and you can't deal with either halfway. They were just scared...and it's hard to love someone unconditionally when you're scared all the time
Because the house took her and made her invisible
1. House made her invisible to play with their minds.
2. She and Luke were the youngest of them, therefore hill house's effect on them was much worse. It made the twins 'deranged adults' in the eyes of their elderly siblings. So no matter how much they tried to tell their siblings about their troubles, they never cared enough. Therefore Nelly was 'there all the time' but 'nobody could see her'.
"Maybe I'm A Ghost"
Sometimes I think
I'm a ghost
Because I'm invisible
And no one can see or hear me
Maybe that's how it's supposed to be
Maybe I'm not supposed to be seen
Maybe I'm not supposed to be heard
Maybe I'm not supposed to be known
Maybe I'm not supposed to be alive
Sometimes I wonder
Am I even alive?
Because I feel dead inside
Or I feel alive in the worst way
Maybe that's the problem
Maybe I'm supposed to be dead
Maybe I'm supposed to be gone
Maybe I'm supposed to be quiet
Maybe I'm supposed to be invisible
Sometimes I ponder
Why am I even here?
Because no one wants me
Maybe that's not the right question
Maybe I'm just stupid
Maybe I don't understand
Maybe I did something wrong
Maybe it's all my fault
Sometimes I think
I'm a ghost
And no one can see or hear me
Maybe that's how it's supposed to be
Maybe I'm not supposed to live
Maybe I'm a ghost
*I wrote this last year when I was suicidal. I hadn't even seen this episode yet, which I find absolutely wild. Needless to say, I really love, feel for, and relate to Nellie.
Amazing!
Great scene
