How could that terrifying scene from The Adventures of Mark Twain not make the cut?

Nope, not messing with you.

Were it simply about atmosphere they could have manufactured names. Why be so specific? Since Chambers' work so obscure very few people would have noticed anyway had the series not generated buzz.

Marty's daughter's behavior could be left untied. It could be nothing more than what Maggie's father said about "kids these days" and sex.

Could be. If it is I will be disappointed because not only is there a lot left open but there's a lot of good places to take those open ends. Places that someone trying to make a successful show might be foolish to pass by.

If you liked True Detective then I urge you to seek out works by Tom Franklin. In particular the collection of short stories called Poachers and the novel Hell At The Breech. It's great southern gothic.
