Julia Hart from All Elite Wrestling sheds light on the diverse inspirations behind her current House of Black character in a recent interview. According to Hart, her character draws from a quartet of distinct personas, including Wednesday Addams, the sassy Sabrina from the Netflix series, the iconic Stevie Nicks, and Uma Thurman’s formidable role in Kill Bill.
Hart points to elements like Stevie Nicks’ fashion sense as an influence and cites the third season of American Horror Story as a significant inspiration, given her deep affinity for the show.
In a charming revelation, Hart recalls her earliest encounter with horror through the animated film Haunted House, an experience that both intrigued and spooked her. However, it was Coraline that truly ignited her fascination with the genre at a young age, demonstrating an early affinity for the macabre.
As she grew older, it was the film “Insidious” that solidified her love for horror, marking a pivotal moment in her cinematic journey.
