Tic dressed in traditional robes of a secret society that appears in episode 2.

Hey y’all, on Tuesday we watched episode 2 of Lovecraft Country and revealed that day’s themes: monsters, freemasons, and exclusive secret societies. Freemasons are fraternal organizations (men only) usually separated into lodges. These lodges had bylaws and promoted their beliefs/central values like modern-day fraternities, and even had many famous/successful members e.g. (George Washington, Ben Franklin, etc.). Prince Hall formed the “African Lodge of North America” becoming the first Black fraternal organization. Aside from the allusion to secret societies in episode 2, we also saw more Lovecraftian (referring to H.P. Lovecraft) monsters and allusions in this episode like the shoggoth.
