Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Dr. Ashford's autopsies reveal bodies are just skin containing black water that forms words when drained—"We are becoming the lake"—while Mr. Foster's corpse releases gallons of water containing hundreds of microscopic versions of himself, all drowning and transforming simultaneously. Dr. Christopher Ashford, Marcus's son, shows Margaret seventeen standing corpses surrounding a floating baby that emerged from Mrs. Patterson after fifty years of reverse pregnancy, explaining that every founding family member carries a seed of their original self from 1774.The Ashford doctors are revealed as one consciousness dispersed across time, studying how Millbrook's entire population exists dissolved in the water supply, transforming people from inside into colonies of microscopic selves. Most horrifying is Sarah Blackwood's actual corpse from 1774, preserved in frozen time, still in labor after 251 years—the thirty babies trying to be born as humans while Davidson keeps them monstrous to maintain his immortality. Christopher gives Margaret a vial containing the real Sarah, instructing her to drink it on Halloween to become Sarah completely, give birth to the thirty as humans, and poison IT from inside when Davidson murders her again.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!
