After a long wait, Syfy just dumped the entire Season on us at once before Halloween. That was unexpected.
Now that I had time to catch up, let's see how this starts...
We meet a happy, young Couple moving into the family House (of the Husband). They're...excited.
We learn that the Wife used to make drawings of a Contortionist Clown. That won't pay off later!
In spite of their passion, there are clear issues for the pair to work out. Drama!
The day after working in the Basement, a strange door appears. This will definitely end well!
Something big and weird happens to close out Episode 1. No SPOILERS, even if you can stream it all right now.

An intriguing setup that hopefully pays off well. By now, they must have the formula down. In the first Episode, we meet all of our Characters, see what their conflict is and get a hint of the creepy creature to come. They hit all of these points well here. Our Leads are nice, likeable people with some mystery and drama surrounding them. Their conflict is an interesting. What would you do if a door suddenly appeared in your House?!? Thankfully, I don't have a friend who will just whip out a shotgun! They are definitely going to explain this more as the Episodes go on and I look forward to it. As for their creature, it looks fun. If you liked the Crooked Man from The Conjuring 2, he's someone you'll like. For me, that Character was too over-the-top and never quite looked real. In this Show, he's not even remotely-CG and looks creepy as hell. I don't know if anyone will be quite as good as the Tooth Child, but this guy may grow on me. While heavy on the Drama, this Episode sells the premise well and keeps you looking around for dangers lurking around you...
Next time, the mystery deepens after a bit of bloody mayhem. What will we learn? See you then...
