ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
"We Have Always Lived in the Castle" by Shirley Jackson tells the story of the Blackwood sisters, Constance and Merricat, who live in isolation with their Uncle Julian after the rest of their family died from arsenic poisoning. The villagers, believing Constance to be the killer, treat them with hostility, leaving the sisters to retreat further into their secluded world. Merricat, the narrator, employs magical thinking to protect herself and her sister from the outside world, while Constance seeks solace in the domestic routine of caring for the home. Their lives are disrupted when their cousin, Charles, arrives, triggering a series of events that threaten the sisters' carefully constructed reality. The novel explores themes of isolation, persecution, family dynamics, and the unreliable nature of perception, delving into the dark corners of the human psyche and the unsettling undercurrents of small-town life.
