Edward Mordrake: Part 1 - S4-E3

Factual error: Season 4 takes place in 1952. Elsa sings Lana Del Rey's Gods and Monsters. The lyrics say "living like Jim Morrison." Jim Morrison was not famous until 1960. He was born in 1943, which would have made him only 9 at this time.

Edward Mordrake: Part 1 - S4-E3

Factual error: During the Bette and Dot surgery dream, we see the bone saw machine brought in and it says "Easymatic 300." In actuality, the machine is the power source for an X-Ray machine and wasn't produced until the early 1980s, while the season takes place in the early 1950s.

Trivia

Show Stoppers - S4-E12

Trivia: They pay homage to the original 1932 movie Freaks. In Freaks, Cleopatra gets mutilated and turned into a tarred and feathered bird for visitors to gawk at in terror. Hercules gets viciously attacked under the carnival vehicle. In this episode, Stanley gets cornered by all the freaks under the carnival vehicle and gets viciously attacked and mutilated to resemble Meep (a feathered freak who was killed by the cops in an earlier episode).
