The book House of Leaves is presented as a documentary within a book within a book. Really fun read, too
I wonder how many times someone has tried to turn House Of Leaves into a movie or a series. It would be pretty wild no matter how they tried it.
I'm sure plenty of times, but the horror in HOL is pretty minimal tbh, I can't imagine it would be easy to do.
Someone did make a phenomenal DOOM mod inspired by it though
After watching this very playthrough of MyHouse a few months ago, I still remember a few scenes. So very unsettling. buddy's narration style is really compelling too.
