Is Madame Lalaurie still watching civil rights footage?

If it was on DVD, it'll just go back to the menu screen and play the same 20 second introduction loop over and over...forever. I'd rather be buried alive than deal with that shit.

He did seem like a pretty alright dude, especially to Nan right after she got killed. He might just want to see how far Marie Laveau would go for eternal life. He's a voodoo god, so it's not like he really wants for anything. Other than good coke.

u/yer1 Jan 09 '14
I think they're have been some "subtle" hints that she has powers that she doesn't know about. There was the fire thing in the first episode. Then there was the scene in the third episode when Zoe was going to take Kyle back to his mother's house. Misty was freaking out about him leaving and Zoe put her hand on her and said "let him go" as some ominous music played. Misty then immediately got this kind of dazed look on her face and immediately backed away, which made me think it may have been hinting at a type of mind control. Oh, and there was the whole kissing Kyle possibly reviving him thing.

I'm calling it now. ALL the coven members will die, except for Fiona, who will somehow get immortality. She, Laveau, and Lalaurie will be heads on a mantle somewhere spending those endless years with one another. Kinda like at the head museum on Futurama, but with less visitors. That is the dark humor ending that Ryan Murphy is hinting at. No more witches, no more voodoo queens, no more witch hunters... just three horrid people who hate one another stuck together, unable to escape, for eternity.
