This episode introduces season 1: "The Haunted Northeast". It introduces the authors, lays out the questions and themes for the season, and shows how the Northeast laid the bedrock for American Mythology - one where the supernatural enforces covenants, metes out judgment, and proves what's in the soul of a man and a nation.
