Un-Convention-al Hauntings & Love Stories

I have no complaints nor anything that would keep this rating below a 10.

Such a fun, meta, yet also emotionally-driven episode. Jesse Stern once again delivers on an emotional twist in the writing, while at the same time making us laugh and see ourselves as fans on the screen.

A haunting and possession that leads to an untold story of a wrongly executed man, played out wonderfully by Alex Saxon, Candus Churchill, and David Epstein.

DetectiveCon - what a fun time! Super meta, it felt like it was calling out all the fans, but that made it so much fun. Podcasting, fan fiction, fan clubs, a murderer in attendance - it had it all!

So many wonderful subtle moments between all of the characters - George, Nancy, and Ace especially. Love watching the growing tension of Nace.

Bess' story in this episode was also a nice surprise, as I was not expecting who I thought to just be a guest in a one-off scene in the season premiere returns. This added a really nice layer to Bess' story and potential for Bess to grow throughout this season (alongside the magic.) And it was really nice to see a land acknowledgment on TV!
