Spoiler for episode 1

The cop at the end said it was a murder/suicide. There's no way that the scene we saw could be interpreted that way. So is the kid hallucinating like his mom or did it really happen? We didn't see how the wife died so maybe the clowns made it look like she did it, but still there would be tape residue all over her and other evidence that would show there were multiple people involved.

I know. It was a total WTF.

How does any officer in any season explain it? Its supernatural coverups. The closer they got was Roanoke were it was revealed on live tv and the camera men were massacred

The 2nd episode shows us inside of the neighbors house. The blood stains and the bloody smiley on the door were exactly where the boy saw it happened.

I think the cop was lying. I think it will be revealed that he too is a part of the cult.
