‘Humbug’
(Season 2, Episode 12)
Centering around a carnival circus and its many circus freak inhabitants, the agents investigate the murder of the “Alligator Man”. After attending the funeral, Mulder and Scully meet a slew of former sideshow freaks. Once more attacks occur, the agents must figure out who is committing the crimes.
Why it’s worth watching: Once again penned by Darin Morgan, this episode brought in more comedic elements to the story that generally took fans by surprise and were ultimately met with positive reviews. This whodunit always stuck out to me in a generally creepy yet interesting way that The X-Files would go on to master in the years to come with its haunting and offbeat telling.
