I guess they can't get away from paranormal sex.

They teach horror stories in school?

I knew this was going to be a sex scene. I just knew it.
It's a fun and interesting event. Last I checked, we think they went and intermingled with a nearby tribe of Natives. We assume this to be the case because the next generation of said tribe ended up with blue eyes and shit.

Cheated on with a ghost
I can't imagine it being as satisfying.

Yeah you'd think she at least wait to hear Matt out with all the strange shit that's been going on. I like to think Gaga's character is just making her go crazy though, she obviously did something to Matt as well.
dave is ok
aztek is ok
Is this Ann Dowd playing Cricket?

I remember Sir Walter Raleigh and Queen Elizi playing a part in acquiring NC for colonization, but not the other stuff.

Born and raised in NC (currently exiled to Florida), they taught it to us in like 4th grade, and it came up often in social studies classes up until high school.

I liked the episode though didn't think it was as strong as the first two.
1. Then back story was cool
2. They're fucked now that they went back on the deal

Same. It's usually always mentioned as a quick reference/aside in the sections about the early colonists

This season is 3/3 so far. I liked how this episode fleshed out the colonists' backstory instead of introducing yet another set of mysteries (like last week with the nurses). Seems to be pretty focused so far and not as scattershot as others are saying.

My question is how "everyone knows the story of Roanoke" but none of them recognize the word "Croatoan", which is one of the most famous parts of the story.
So, this episode arguably hit the sexual assault trope (or, well, magically coerced sex, anyway). At least they made it three episodes, I guess.

To be fair, that part isn't usually mentioned, at least not in the history textbooks I've seen

As soon as they revealed she had a miscarriage, I knew they'd pull this shit.
EDIT: Aaaaand now I'm at that part of the episode. Okay. So I'm a bit wrong.

Huh, really? I can see history textbooks not mentioning it, but in the story that gets passed around, the bit about the single word carved in a tree is usually something I see highlighted prominently. Hm, oh well.

Er, no. 3 episodes in and it's literally the exact opposite of that. There are only 3 principal characters at this point and the story is pretty much laser focused on just one thing.

Maybe the show will pull a reverse Murder House and have Lady Gaga's ghost character be pregnant with a ghost baby this time.
Speaking of, if these stories are all in the same universe, then isn't the Anti-Christ supposed to be running around?

They don't happen chronologically. And murder house might take place after this season if some theories are true.
Theories?!?!

that Shelby is Billie dean the psychic from season 1
That's a bit of a stretch, isn't it?
AlexMeloche

Considering that Shelby isn't actually the "real" Shelby but an actress... I could see it.

Man people need to actually watch this season before they start this "too much going on" bullshit. Right now there's 3 main characters and two direct threats: the colonist ghosts and the nurses, who honestly could have just been used to set up why the house is haunted and may not even be an integral part of the show. We're on the third episode and they've only just added a fourth character and who knows how long he'll actually be around after this. The plot, as someone else said, is laser focused: it's about the family in this home and the weird things they're experiencing and now their little girl has been kidnapped. There is nothing anywhere near the level of plot threads from Asylum going on here.

You mean the sexual situations tag every time the show returns from a commercial break didn't give it away considering how much time passed before any sexual situation occurred?
