The Haunting of Bly Manor arrives just in time for Halloween on Blu-ray and DVD starting today, and Collider has an exclusive look at a clip from the bonus features of the brand-new home release that spotlights Kate Siegel's ghost Viola Willoughby, Bly Manor's former mistress who now haunts the grounds of the house. The Gothic horror series follows the mysteries surrounding the titular Bly Manor, as well as the unassuming American au pair who is hired to care for a pair of children.

The tragedy of Viola's character is that she has not only morphed into a terrifying, faceless entity with no sense of her own identity — later referred to as the Lady in the Lake — but her lingering hatred and losses have become so powerful that she is capable of trapping even more unsuspecting souls within the bounds of Bly Manor and the land on which it sits.

According to Bly Manor creator/director Mike Flanagan, it is Viola's defiance against life and death that has created the phenomenon "that would hold not only her soul in this place, but would be strong enough to hold others in her gravity as well."
