    I have real beef with the people that take issue with the supernatural elements, when there’s (as of yet) plausible explanations for all of it.
    “How come rust cohles ghost dad showed them the way to the corpses?”
    Gee I don’t know, THATS THE FUCKING MYSTERY. Imagine watching a detective show and being mad that not everything is explained immediately.

      if it is hallucinations they’re going to affect people in different ways! rose sees her dead husband, the native women hear the voices of their ancestors out on the ice, like people’s given religious/spiritual beliefs will actively affect what they see when they hallucinate. i haven’t watched ep 4 yet (i know what happens) but i’m really excited for the last two!
