So we are two episodes into the second season of “Witches of East End” and so far I’m digging it. This posts discusses what’s been going on, and mainly my thoughts on the show so far.

Joanna’s son Fredrick came through the portal that was opened by Ingrid at the end of last season. He claims he is sorry that he sided with Joanna and Wendy’s father during the war in Asgard, but Wendy just doesn’t trust him. She thinks there is something bad about him. Fredrick had the power to heal his mom from the poison that Dash and Killion’s mom gave her as well. We’ve also learned that Fredrick and Freya are twins and share a unique magical bond, they can weave certain spells together. They used one to locate Killian, who Freya knew was in danger.

Elsewhere Dash is losing his mind slowly it seems. He’s having visions of his brother Killian, who he thinks is dead. Killian is sending him on a dangerous path, learning to use his powers and do harm. He’s also being blackmailed by someone who knows what he did to Killian. We don’t yet know who that person is though. For awhile I thought that he may be hallucinating the blackmail just like he is his brother, that this is all his guilt. Now I’m wondering if Killian’s new girlfriend Eva has something to do with it all. She is a witch down in Santa Dominga and found Killian adrift, and he’s having some memory issues it seems. I wonder if she is using both the brothers to get rich? I have to say I’m not liking Killian’s story yet. Get him back home and with Freya where he belongs. Eva is up to no good.

Wendy continues to suspect that Frederick is no good, but as of yet nobody realizes there is this bizarre plant monster in the woods that seems to be the real evil that also came through the portal. Ingrid had weird sex with the thing, and now it’s killed her boss. It killed someone else too, as we learned from an EMT and new potential love interest for Wendy, carving symbols into their chest and having them chant “The king is coming.” At first I wondered if the monster was part of Fredrick? Something he was projecting? Then again, he likely wouldn’t have had sex with his own sister. Fredrick is is acting bizarre though. He’s eyes were glowing red when he attacked a drunk in Freya’s bar, and he did some spell on Wendy’s earring. I also wonder if perhaps Fredrick isn’t Fredrick, but the grandfather who has shapeshifted in order to get to his daughters somehow? Things that make you go hmmmmm . . .
