I love horror and scifi, so the fantastic and unreal are cool with me. And I'm beyond cool with the curses, witchcraft, gods, premonitions, and even the splendid other world of the Phoenix that we get in the early half of 1897, and I appreciate that the writing made sense of each turn of the plot. But in the later half, we get (along with the influx of new characters) wild information that leaves even the attentive fan scratching his or her head. And it doesn't help that by this point the timeline bears little resemblance to what it was originally. While the plot holes are fodder for speculation, they also bring mounting questions in the Watching Project that just simply have no right or wrong answer.
