- Dying horses drawing a black carriage of apples
- Witches vs warlocks!
- Ms. Mead, the satanist, buying her goat heads (and hooves) from the local butcher
- "Purple is for royalty, not middle management"
- "Stand down, bitch" (John Henry to Chablis)
- I could watch an entire season of Emma Roberts (Madison) and Billy Porter (Chablis) touring haunted houses in Southern California.
