Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches hits its halfway point this week on AMC and AMC+ with the series’ fourth episode, “Curiouser and Curiouser”, finally delivering Rowan (Alexandra Daddario) directly into the Mayfair family due to the death of her biological mother, Deirdre (Annabeth Gish) at the end of episode two and a disorienting encounter with Lasher (Jack Huston) in episode three. While this week’s episode is very much about Rowan meeting the family thanks to Deirdre’s funeral and wake, there’s also quite a bit about Carlotta Mayfair that’s revealed in the episode as well. Up until now, all viewers have seen of Carlotta has been framed through her relationship with Deirdre, but “Curiouser and Curiouser” takes us deeper into Carlotta’s own story and history with Lasher and according to Beth Grant, who brings Carlotta to life in the series, it’s Carlotta’s own history that makes her relationship to Rowan even more complex.
