'Into the Dark: Flesh and Blood': Dermot Mulroney explains exactly why the episode's take on Thanksgiving is so dark and twisted

Flesh and Blood deals with an agoraphobic teen who is scared to step out of the house following her mother's death, but things get even worse with her dad's suspicious behavior.
PUBLISHED NOV 9, 2018

It has been over a week since the release of Hulu's new anthology series, 'Into the Dark's second episode 'Flesh and Blood' and fans still can't stop raving about it on social media. And for good reason too, because of just how unique the show's concept is. 'Into the Dark' releases monthly episodes focussing on one particular festival from the month itself, and putting a horror spin on the festivities. The first episode, 'The Body' came out in October and revolved around Halloween, and following suit was 'Flesh and Blood' that released earlier this month, and plays with the theme of Thanksgiving. Starring Dermot Mulroney, the episode centers around an agoraphobic teen (Diana Silvers) who cannot get over her mother's murder, and that forces her to stay confined within her house. Making the whole scenario all the more twisted is her father (Mulroney) whose character has some creepy, suspicious vibes as is obvious from the trailer. Why you ask? Mulroney himself has the answers for you!
