Review

Jack Seale

Behind that rather blasé title is a true-crime series telling tales of domestic horror: season one included the stories of a lodger who would trick his way in and then refuse to leave, and a kindly Sacramento pensioner who ran a boarding house for the homeless, but was really a serial killer. The second run has further creepy recollections, including one about a housemate who seems to be trying to impersonate a poltergeist.

Since it’s mostly interviewees relating their experiences, the show sometimes fills in the gaps with animation, an unusual solution that works well.
