[lovecraft country][spoilers] Sometimes I think back to where this started and where it's gone in the last nine episodes
Quinn Angstrom
Episode 1: Spooky lovecraft monsters lurk in the woods of the new estate that the black protags inherited while surrounded by evil white people who want them out of it
Quinn Angstrom
Episode 9: "I'm protected by magic, fire can't hurt me" says Letitia to her long lost grandmother, who she's talking to despite a promise not to change the past before going into the time machine to retrieve her family's secret spellbook
Master Chieve

Niamh Vibes
