This started out kinda cool but I will warn you, it gets boring and stays that way for most of the season. This is a story that could have been handled in two hours. For some reason, they stretched this out with scenes of extremely long car rides and very meaningless dialog. A few of the characters are interesting but it isn't enough. So with all the show choices these days, I would pass on this and find something better. It isn't even scary. Sure, it's mysterious for a while but once the mystery is solved (and it's solved rather early on) I found it pointless and dumb.
