Every season of True Detective is a story of obsession, mystery, and the haunting passage of time — but no two seasons are alike. From the philosophical swamps of Louisiana to the eternal night of Alaska, the show reinvents itself with each chapter. Some seasons are brutal and raw, others slow-burning and poetic, and each appeals to a different kind of viewer.

This quiz will guide you through the shadows to find out: which True Detective season is truly yours?
