It’s not exactly what you’ve asked for, but there IS a Blu-ray release this month with extended director cuts for 3 episodes as well as commentary!
I bought a beautiful coffee table book on Amazon all about the BTS of Midnight Mass. I got it within 2 days so you probably have time if you want to go that route. https://www.amazon.com/dp/1789097770?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I was just thinking of giving it a read before the show starts. I'll be following this thread for sure.
The book is in public domain and so should be freely available everywhere. Here's an online copy from Project Gutenberg:
The King James isn't an ideal starting point, I think. Apart from changes in language since the 1600s meaning some lines may not mean what you think, the translation itself had some imperfections (like translating wild oxen as "unicorns"). The translation favored for academic study of the Bible is the New Revised Standard Version, which came out in 1989 or so and is receiving an update next year that accounts for more recent Biblical scholarship (unearthing new texts in the Middle East, like the Dead Sea Scrolls, can be very helpful to the field). The New Oxford Annotated Bible (currently in its fifth edition) uses the NRSV translation but also provides footnotes, essays, etc. that provide historical context and the like that help modern readers understand meanings, references, literary devices, etc. - the reason I consider the NOAB best for this is because it's very impartial and scholarly, not trying to push a specifically Christian interpretation upon the text - more so trying to explain the actual authorial intent in a dispassionate and detached manner. https://www.amazon.com/New-Oxford-Annotated-Bible-Apocrypha/dp/019027607X
>here in Mexico literally no one likes to read so there are no bookstores here.
Wow, TIL. It might just be that you are in the middle of nowhere. It's not that easy to find bookstores in the rural US either.
Anyway, this is a Penguin edition. The ISBN 13 is 9780143134190. You want the "movie tie-in" edition. Here it is on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Haunting-Hill-House-Movie-Tie/dp/0143134191/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=9780143134190&qid=1608994244&sr=8-1 . If you can't get Amazon where you are, you can enter the ISBN into whatever online shop you use. You can probably find used editions on sites like Abebooks if needed.
> Another adaption of a haunted house classic preferably one we haven’t seen adapted for a long while.
That is the problem. Classics have all been done before, probably several times or with variations. I’ve been looking for some classic haunting novels and short stories, but eventually they will either have to branch out to other types or do a more modern classic.
That said, while I doubt it will be done, I wonder how he will do Wuthering Heights.
It is a tapestry. Not wallpaper.
They no longer sell this particular tapestry anymore, they have a new model here
Sunshine Joy is the brand.
