ScreenRant on Eerie Indiana

[froodle]

At the risk of sounding like a hipster, only 90's kids will probably remember the American television series Eerie, Indiana. The series has a resurgence on the internet briefly in the early 2010s, with many adults reminiscing on how unsettling the series was, without being able to place exactly why.

The nineteen episode show followed Marshall Teller, a teen who moves to the ghostly town of Eerie, Indiana. Throughout the show, Marshall and his only somewhat normal friend Simon encounter many strange scenarios.

Such creep-tastic themes in the show include urban legends, evil dogs, doppelgangers, and a whole lot of self-aware meta action. Marshall's dream sequence in "The Dead Letter" is a noteworthy disturbing scene. Eerie, Indiana is yet another children's series that feels more like David Lynch than anything else.
