Last updated: February 2, 2020 Here’s what people can expect from The Haunting of Hill House season 2, which is being called The Haunting of Bly Manor. The first season of The Haunting of Hill House on Netflix may have seemed to end with a satisfying finale, but - not unlike the the titular house’s appetite for human souls - there’s always room for seconds. And in a surprising twist, season 2 will explore an entirely new ghost-ridden house in The Haunting of Bly Manor....

I’ve been giving more thought to the issue of how Apple might embed Touch ID into the display of the iPhone 8. So far, the various reports and rumors have focused on two possibilities: one hi-tech, one low-tech. The hi-tech approach would be to embed a fingerprint reader beneath the display. We know from the sheer volume of Apple patents that Apple has plenty of ideas about how this might be achieved – but there’s a massive difference between a concept and a finished product....

In The Bachelorette finale, when Hannah Brown accepted a proposal from Jed Wyatt that was rooted in deceit, she thought she made the safe choice. Though he played nice for the cameras and for Brown, Wyatt had risk written all over him. The 25-year-old musician from Nashville, whose crowning achievement in life is singing a generic jingle in a dog food commercial, raised red flags to the audience when he revealed to Brown that he’d only come on to the show to promote his music career....

Poor Hufflepuff. Despite the fact most Hufflepuff students are notorious for being kind and considerate, Hufflepuff still often gets the shorthand of the stick. Their house is commonly considered a joke due to not being known for bravery, cunning, or intelligence, like the other houses. Even main characters in Harry Potter typically believe that Hufflepuffs are somehow beneath the other houses and considered less skilled or worthy. We know that’s not true....

It comes as a surprise to no one that Harry Potter’s time with the Dursley’s was truly abhorrent. They treated the poor boy like dirt and seemed to revel in making him as miserable as possible.

Fear not dear Potter fans of the internet, we are not excusing the actions of the young Dudley Dursley....

The Harry Potter movies do, for the most part, do a brilliant job of staying to the source material written by JK Rowling. However, Warner Bros chose to alter some things from the books in order to make things even better for those learning about the Boy Who Lived and his battle against Lord Voldemort via the big screen. That means that even deaths of some characters were altered in some ways....

Especially in the earlier Harry Potter books and films, Professor Albus Dumbledore is depicted as an odd man. From offering lemon drops to Minerva McGonagall in the wake of the Potters’ demise to telling Harry he merely desired a pair of woolen socks when looking into the Mirror of Erised, though the latter turned out to be a lie. As the series continued, more of Dumbledore’s backstory was revealed and proved to be darker than the wizarding world made it out to be....

With yesterday’s announcement that the iPhone 6s will shoot 4K video, many prospective buyers may be wondering just how much space they’ll need to contain all the videos they’ll shoot.
