S6 Ep321: Episode 321: Vigilante Horror

Vigilantes are scary because they blur the line between justice and vengeance, acting without oversight, restraint, or accountability. They decide who is guilty and what punishment fits; often in the shadows, beyond the reach of law. There’s something deeply unsettling about a person who believes they are right enough to override every system in place, especially when anger, grief, or obsession fuels that belief. A vigilante doesn’t just threaten criminals; they threaten the idea that fairness requires rules. And once someone decides the rules no longer apply to them, there’s no telling where they’ll stop.
