The New Modern Magic

A curveball of an episode! While Dev faced true horror running from Hurricanes in Florida, Drake and James went way way back in time to the 1890s!  Around 30 years after the Civil War and a few years before Arthur Morgan robbed Blackwater, a famous magician named Marie-Georges-Jean Méliès was in his backyard experimenting with a new medium for his sourcery: the film camera.  These films are considered the very first horror films among many other firsts for the moving pictures! Also we talk about train crashes! Spooky!
