History Series / MayfairWitches

* ArtisticLicenseLinguistics: Ciprien's Talamasca file lists "Belgian" among the languages he speaks. There is no singular language called Belgian. Belgian people speak either French, Dutch or German (the first couple are on his list, too). Even if it meant a regional variant, it would have to be specific about whether it was referring to Belgian French, Belgian Dutch (which is more commonly called Flemish) or Belgian German.

* DeceptiveLegacy: Elena was a Mayfair cousin took Rowan under orders of Carlotta Mayfair, changing her last name to Fielding, never contacting the family again while keeping all knowledge of them secret from Rowan, and pretending it was a closed adoption so she can't tell her anything about her birth parents.

* ItsPersonal: One of the witch-hunters who kidnaps Tessa was a former employee at Mayfair Auto, Tessa's parents' company. She and her husband lost their jobs to Tessa's parents' personnel cuts... while their daughter was undergoing chemotherapy at the Mayfair hospital. Needless to say, her interest in seeing Tessa burn goes well beyond mere witch-hunting.

* DeadAllAlong: [[spoiler:In a few flashbacks and modern day scenes, we see Carlotta speaking with her sister Millie, who also lives in the house on First Street. Then in the fifth episode, after Lasher has put Carlotta in SuspendedAnimation, Rowan finds Millie crying in the bathtub, saying that without Carlotta she can't hold on and it's like she's dying all over again, revealing that Millie is a ghost. This is hinted at in the fourth episode by her name appearing on a gravestone in the cemetery. Underneath Rowan's name (from Rowan's death being faked as a baby), which implies she died between the flashbacks to when Deirdre was young and the present]].
