“Death’s Hand in Mine” confirmed what I had suspected: that this story was going to progress by standard story rules. And, also, seemingly my main plot theories were correct. Despite the wholly unnecessary death fake-outs that ruin some of Agatha All Along’s rewatch value, each witch will get their trial, and through each trial, they are given “back” their powers.

“Familiar by Thy Side” is an episode from a totally different show. It has a much more standard plot structure and progresses at a different pace. In any other context, “Familiar by Thy Side” plays out as a standard superhero opening journey, albeit with a more macabre tone to the whole thing.

In the second part of this slow-build horror story, Tabitha is now at The Art Gallery. Now she might have a chance to look around and see if she can figure out what happened to those men.

Werewolf by Night is a fun, campy Marvel show that disappointed me because of its marketing and presentation. If you wanted to see a horror movie done in the Marvel universe with a Deadpool level of R-rated gore, then you’re in for an unpleasant surprise.

“Darkest Hour/Wake Thy Power” made me give up. Not on watching Agatha All Along, but on understanding the rules of the trials. This episode starts with rules. There’s a clear set of them. But then they get broken, and stuff goes out of control, and Teen kind of just runs over to the Ouija board at some point and handles it.

Hello, dear reader. The Halloween season has claimed our storytelling, it has infested our tales: and you shall have so many horrors to enjoy.
And, with that in mind, with the intention set, we have a beginning. A windup—before the gory conclusion.

“If I Can’t Reach You/Let My Song Teach You” tries to carry a good chunk of the trial on the back of “The Ballad of The Witch’s Road” being a good song. And, yes, it is a good song. No complaints there.

If you’re like me, then you enjoy the idea of Timeless on MTGA—but would rather not constantly lose. And, if you’re really like me, then you especially hate losing to Show and Tell combos.

Oh, the horror stories are here now, friends. As October continues, Brandon Scott has nightmarish short tales every Friday for you to enjoy.
This time, we visit a world with one big difference. Something called “The Nightmare” is part of their society. It’s unopposed, unstoppable.
And it picks people. Randomly.

“Through Many Miles/Of Tricks and Trials” answered the question that I posed in my initial article for Agatha All Along. And that is: what is The Road like? And the answer given was so good that we’re doing episodic reviews like we did for the last season of Doctor Who. I want to see how The Road’s death traps play out.

I’m simply calling this episode “Epilogue” for the sack of clarity—and this isn’t going to be a long review. All told the actual episode’s content is around six minutes. And, in those six minutes, it feels like we didn’t get an epilogue at all.
