(11 votes)

The Night of the Underground Terror - S3-E19

Factual error: The episode opens in New Orleans during Mardi Gras, circa approximately 1873. We hear a jazz band playing "When The Saints Go Marching In" although the song didn't emerge in a recognizable form until the end of the 19th century. (00:00:19)

The Night of the Underground Terror - S3-E19

Factual error: The small round table in West's railcar parlor has a flip-over top, with secret maps hidden on the underside. The wine decanter and glasses all stay attached when it flips. But impossibly, when West turns the tabletop back over at the end, there's a full cup of coffee sitting on it. (00:48:30)

The Night of the Bubbling Death - S3-E1

Revealing mistake: As West drags the body of a bad guy out of the scene, the supposedly unconscious man is holding his head up so as not to have his head dragged through the dirt. A truly unconscious person's head would flop back on to the ground.
