This paper discusses symptoms and behaviors associated with Body Dysmorphia, using characters from Shirley Jackson's Haunting of Hill House as examples. By combining psychological and literary research with textual evidence, I argue that protagonist, Eleanor Vance, may suffer from body dysmorphia. Further, I discuss the physical body's crucial and under-examined role in psychological literary criticism.
