Night Stalker (TV Series) - What Would Have Happened

What Would Have Happened

When Night Stalker went off the air, many plotlines were left unfinished. The DVD of the series includes four unaired episodes. The first of these, The Sea, has an audio commentary track in which executive producer Frank Spotnitz reveals some details of where he intended to take the storyline, had the series not been canceled. Below is a brief summary.

• The bikers that were chasing Victor Caleca are the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the pale rider being the biker with the long blond hair.
• The mark on Kolchak's wrist is the mark of evil. If the series were to continue we would have found out more living people have the mark on their wrist, Kolchak would have been told the opposite (that the mark is a sign of goodness) by a mysterious man later in the season, but the truth would be told to him by the end of the season.
• The victims on whose wrists the mark appears only after their deaths are in fact marked as good.
• Linda Caleca and Julie Medlock would have reappeared sometime in the future.
• During the episode "The Source", Kolchak passes a sign with a pyramid on it. On the commentary Frank Spotnitz noted that the pyramid is the symbol of a group, and that all members have the symbol on their wrist. The pyramid means the opposition of Good Vs. Evil.
• The anonymous source Carl spoke to on his cell phone in the last aired episode, The Source was in fact Carl himself.
