![]() ![]() Hastur is an octopoid being that appears in The King in Yellow as a supernatural character and also makes appearances in the works of Ambrose Bierce and Terry Pratchett. The swastika on Ledoux’s left breast is actually a octopus looking creature, possibly in reference to Hastur. Next to the portrait tat just being a devil tattoo to go along with Ledoux’s other satanic ink, I’m leaning towards this possibility the most. Now circa 2005 McConaughey - I can see some similarity.Ĭhances are Ledoux is just a fan of Sahara.Īnother theory floating around is that the figure is related to the praying statue Cohle sees in the school at the end of the episode. It’s a serious stretch since McConaughey’s haircut in True Detective is not even close to the curly hair of the tattooed figure on Ledoux. Then again, Ledoux’s proclamation that he had seen Rust Cohle in his dreams doesn’t entirely rule out the possibility that he would have a tattoo of the figure he believes Cohle to resemble. Given the 666 tattoos on Ledoux and the pentagram on his back, having a tattoo of Lucifer seems plausible. The first and most obvious explanation is that the tattoo is the face of Lucifer. Here are a few of the theories floating around about the possible meanings behind Ledoux’s body art. Though Charles confirmed that there was indeed a spiral symbol on his character’s back, he didn’t say much more about Ledoux’s tattoos, which means a second glance at his swamp rat ink is very much in order. All we really know about him is he spent time in jail with Dora Lange’s ex, ran a crystal meth business, kept children hostage, and enjoyed strutting around in a gas mask & jock strap.Įarlier this week, Cajun Boy did an interview with the actor who plays Ledoux, Charles Halford and discussed his excursion with Richard Simmons while filming in Louisiana, among other things. Ledoux’s time on screen was incredibly minimal. One of the show’s strangest characters thus far has been Reggie Ledoux, who (SPOILER ALERT) is now just a pile of splattered brains in the grass. "the stars used to not be there, the light is winning".Just like Breaking Bad, True Detective has me on the edge of my seat each week, anticipating which strange new path the story is going to follow. pessimism is still the truth of things, but he instead of seeing it as hopeless, he sees the 'rebellion' against the parasitism of reality as more proliferated than he thought. by the end he doesn't actually change in terms of philosophy, he just learned to react to it in the different way. he wants there to be divine judgement in the world and is pissed off that there isn't. ![]() his solving the case was his sole rebellion against the nature of reality (which he sort of saw himself as alone in this act of will - him vs the world). in other words, he was always somebody who sort of hated reality, and wanted to fix it. his demeanor is a reaction to this horrible truth. which is the understanding that life is suffereing and pleasure the temporary relief. i believe what people mean to say is pessimism. he's the person in the show with the most focused purpose. im not sure why everyone calls him a nihilist though. There is plenty of time in the off-season for memes, but only a short window for discussion when the episodes are new. This is to give room for discussion to take place.
