The coven celebrates a festive tradition — and crosses paths with unexpected guests. Nick struggles to strike a balance between pleasure and pain.
Tropes in this episode:
- Contrived Coincidence: It just so happens that the coven celebrates the hare moon in the Greendale woods at the same time the pagans celebrate Ostara. Of course, given the pagans' use of this as an excuse to commence hostilities, this may not be a coincidence.
- Taken for Granite: Rosalind and Dorcas get turned into stone by Nagaina.
- Downer Ending: Agatha has gone Insane, Dorcas and Rosalind have been turned into stone. And Nick has freed Lucifer from the dungeons in exchange for Drugs.
- The Reveal:
- Lucifer took away the powers of the coven because they stopped worshipping him.
- Lucifer’s powers are divine and not infernal because he used to be an Angel.
- The carnival people are pagan witches and creatures from Greek Mythology.
- Carcosa the ringleader is actually the god Pan, Nagaina the snake charmer is a gorgon and the fortune teller is the enchantress Circe.
- You Cannot Grasp the True Form: Agatha lost her mind after she saw the great god Pan in his true form.
