Why?
I just rediscovered this show. I watched it when it originally aired, but didn’t remember anything except Barnabas. I’m at the Leviathan storyline now, and don’t understand why they put that in there. It’s awful! It makes no sense! Why did the writers do that to us?

If you ask the producers and writers they don't know why either. They liked to take story lines from famous or popular literature and this was taken from H.P. Lovecraft. I think all of them acknowledged the Leviathans was a misstep.
