True Detective‘s first season (and the current story) ends next Sunday.
So, what’s your opinion on the series thus far? Will the ending be supernatural in any way, or will the “King in Yellow” simply be an imaginary “god” that the cult worships? Is all this Carcosa stuff just a red herring?
Comment below with your opinion on the show, and a prediction for the finale if you have one!
Here’s the episode 8 preview:

I think they will both be stuck in Carcosa while the rest of us wait for season two. But I don’t expect too much more to be revealed at this point.

Agreed with Paul—the Chambers/Lovecraftian stuff is just an allegorical layer. There may be a “hallucination” of Cohle’s that may make things ambiguous. I don’t think Maggie is involved with the cult, but Hart’s daughter? Definitely.

It’s been a great series, and the “King in Yellow” references have added a special layer of creepiness. I don’t think there will be any supernatural reveal in the finale, but I do think we’ll find out that people close to Marty are involved with the cult; his troubled daughter, his father in law, maybe even wife Maggie.
