The Haunting of Bly Manor came out a couple weeks ago...and honestly, I have not been the same since.
I'm a HUGE scaredy cat (but I loved Hill House, so I just HAD to watch this one!), so this show honestly gave me nightmares.
But it's important to remember this is just a (albeit VERY well-acted) TV show. To prove it, here are 21 behind-the-scenes photos of the cast goofing around and having a great time!
1. This photo of Amelia Eve (who plays Jamie) and Rahul Kohli (who plays Owen) reminding us that they're just REALLY good actors:
2. This hilarious video of T'Nia Miller (who plays Hannah) dancing and singing "Don't Cha" while wearing corpse makeup.
3. These photos of Amelia, Rahul, T'Nia, and Tahirah Sharif (who plays Rebecca) having the best time in the kitchen:
4. And this photo of the same crew either filming or partying it up — I can't tell, but they look happy:
5. These super-cute photos of Benjamin Evan Ainsworth (who plays Miles) and Amelie Bea Smith (who plays Flora) actually looking happy for once:

15. These behind-the-scenes photos that remind us that these are just ACTORS on a SET and not real people in a haunted house:
16. This super-cute photo of Amelia, Victoria, and Rahul cuddled up together, proving they're just as close as their onscreen characters:

See — not so scary now, right? Here's hoping this will help me sleep tonight.
