    2oony - I think it was the Halloween Pt.1 episode that showed the baby kidnapping and subsequent experimenting by the Dr? Or maybe the one before that...not sure.

    One thing I'm wondering is why do the men see Moira(?) as she was in her 20's but the women see her as she is now.

    Also Connie Britton, there's something about her that I really like.

So I missed right after the police came to the house. Can anyone give a brief rundown of what happened?

    Either she or Jessica Lange said "Men see what they want to see."

    Yep, I rewatched that episode the other day and somehow had missed that whole scene the first time. That the husband's name is "Charles" -- same as Lindbergh, makes DDMAN correct in seeing the link between the two cases.

    Basically, her husband thinks she has lost her mind and is having her committed. And her daughter, who knows the ghosts are real, is reluctantly allowing it to happen by not speaking up in her defense (to protect her ghostly boyfriend Tate.)

    It seems the ghosts are all stuck in the house and doomed to repeat past patterns forever. Whatever mental/emotional state they were in when they died seems to be how they more or less exist as their ghostly selves. Some of the ghosts seem more aware of that than others.

    The house is getting positively packed with ghosts, old and new. I'm going to need a March Madness bracket sheet soon to keep up.

    I think they've been missing some opportunities for more scares. Ben seeing the maid as an older woman was one such opportunity -- it happened quickly but there was no build up.

    The show is like a car wreck awful to watch yet I remain mezmerized. It's both one of the best shows I've seen and one of the worst.

    Boy Howdy! The fact that Ben's dead girlfriend seems to be calling the shots is weird too. It almost feels like they're writing these scripts as they go along (which they may be, I don't know..). I'm still watching and enjoying(?) it for the most part, but how much more are they going to throw in there?

    I agree. I am not sure they have an overall "exit strategy" or vision to this whole story, and that's a little worrying. I hope I'm wrong about that, because it started off so strong.
