This was an unusual episode. By unusual I mean that there was barley any horror in it, it was an adventure episode. A really cool Indiana Jones type of adventure. Not what I expected from this show at all. A little disappointing, but it was still a good episode.
Atticus Freeman is determined to find the missing three pages from the book of names that are hidden. They are hidden really well. I mean hidden in an illogical way. Atticus' father, Montrose, does everything in his power to stop his son from discovering the pages and the truth. A truth that we don't know anything about. Leti tries to call him out on it, but Atticus father is still a mystery. Also, Atticus and his father have a pretty terrible relationship. Like really. There are defiantly a lot of mysteries to resolve in this show, personal and supernatural.
Still, Atticus finds a hint about where the pages might be hidden and he, his father and Leti go on an adventure to find them. And I mean I real adventure. Not any horror at all. But, not a very realistic one as well. Although, this show doesn't have any realism in it. I mean when it comes to the supernatural-horror aspect of the show. It doesn't feel believable because it is too magical. Not very Lovecraftian.
Ruby also returns in this episode and it seems like she will soon be getting her own plotline throughout the show. There are hints that her role might become more significant. Which might in the end lead her to a conflict with her sister. But that's a lot further down the line I guess.
I enjoyed this episode, but less so then the others. It's not that I don't like adventure, I just don't like it at the expense of horror. They tried to do some jump scare horror, but it didn't really scare me. At least the plot is moving along in an interesting direction. Not necessarily a Lovecraftian one, but interesting nonetheless.
