    • Synopsis
    • The psychological drama stars Elisabeth Moss (The Handmaid’s Tale, The Square) as famed horror author Shirley Jackson with Michael Stuhlbarg (The Shape of Water, Call Me by Your Name) as her Bennington College professor husband Stanley Hyman. Rising stars Logan Lerman (Indignation, Fury) and Odessa Young (Assassination Nation, Looking for Grace) play the young couple that move in with Shirley and Stanley in the hope of starting a new life but instead find themselves fodder for a psycho-drama that inspires Shirley’s next novel.
