Hell yeah, spooky episode! Bloodbending is a really unsettling idea for Avatar to explore, and I applaud them for not only going down this path but also doing it as well as they usually do. The idea of being controlled by someone moving your blood around is such a chilling thought, and watching someone using this skill makes you flinch each time. The buildup to this revelation is very nice, showing how Hama is willing to drain water out of life for her own benefit. The end of the episode is great, with Katara having to bloodbend in order to stop Hama, and crying when Hama tells her, with glee, "Congratulations. You're a bloodbender." Very haunting episode, and a welcome departure from Avatar's usual tone. 9.6/10
