Fun article- I’ve been devouring this show, and when it’s over, I’ll watch it again. There are too many details and references to catch in a single viewing.

Just one quibble: Jason Vorhees wears the hockey mask. Michael Myers wears an inside-out William Shatner mask.

Thank you for reading and I rewatched a bunch of episodes to interview the production designer and caught so many new things in the background. It’s very fun! And thank you for the correction — I appreciate it! — and now you know I don’t really watch horror movies (or sports.) I’m going to update!

Thank you for the quick response.

As a horror buff, I simply could *not* let the mixup slide. I have my priorities, lol!

I appreciate it! I also googled to check how I confused Michael Myers and cannot unsee that mask. It’s terrifying!!

Oh, my gosh, I want to see this just for the costume design! I love the idea of this place out of time and a bit out of sync with the real world.

Great work, Fawnia, thank you!🤘💕

I know have a list of WNM links to read after I watch the the TV shows you're writing about. Widow's Bay is on the very top of my list!

And how fun that Liam's rain parka inspired what the boogeyman wears (and appreciated the side by side photos too to really see the inspiration in action)

It’s soooo good. This is at the top of my recommendations! I was pretty proud of my photo selection for Liam x the Boogeyman 😂

All the different land lines and the old TVs are great too. The Oasis parka is hilarious! And my husband and I paused the show and talked about Evan’s sweater and the thinking behind that choice for a solid five minutes. 🤣

I interviewed the production designer so rewatched a bunch to focus on the background and there are so many fun things, like the Rolodex on Tom’s desk, and those cigarette machines and all the creepy stuff in the historical society. The Liam parka made me lol too (and with those pics haha). I kind of love Evan in that sweater! It is definitely a choice lol
