In The Fall of the House of Usher, Madeline is never shown to achieve her potential or her promised fate, and instead, her worst fear comes true.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Madeline Usher's fate wasted her most shocking scene in The Fall of the House of Usher, and her worst fear came true in the end. Mike Flanagan's limited series was meant to show the consequences of greed, power, and wealth. The Fall of the House of Usher focuses on the grim deal that Madeline and Roderick Usher made with the demon Verna, played by Carla Gugino, in order to achieve everything they've dreamed of.
The Fall of the House of Usher is Mike Flanagan's final project with Netflix, and it delivers. Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's short story of the same name, it uses a well-oiled formula: horror, suspense, character-based plot, and an ensemble made of actors Mike Flanagan worked with before.
Despite the Fall of the House of Usher fan theory that Madeline struck a pact of her own, most of her power moves happened before the deal. She was the mastermind in placing Roderick as a trustworthy Fortunado employee, next in line to replace Rufus, and she killed him without blinking as they buried him alive in the basement of their to-be firm. In the present timeline, she is more of an afterthought, despite having an imposing presence.
However, it's worth noting that, despite the fact that she didn't become more powerful than Roderick, Madeline's death wasn't in vain. After her mother returned from the grave to kill a powerful man — the former Fortunato CEO William Longfellow, who was also the Usher twins' biological father — Madeline committed a similar act.
