Criminal Minds season 13 episode 12 spoilers: Central Park tragedies

Criminal Minds season 13 episode 12 carries with it the title of “Bad Moon on the Rise,” and we’ll be the first to admit that this just has us thinking a little bit about the classic song more so than anything else. It also makes us think of werewolves, which is probably not a logical thing to think about given that this isn’t a show where those sort of creatures show up.

What makes “Bad Moon on the Rise” interesting is that rather than going to some random small town or somewhere that the production in Los Angeles can easily mimic, we’re actually going to see the producers do their part to create a pretty iconic location in Central Park. It’s a big part of the case thanks to it serving as the site of some crimes.

For a little bit more news on that, CarterMatt has for you in full the Criminal Minds season 13 episode 12 synopsis:

“Bad Moon on the Rise” – The BAU is called to New York when several casualties of a brutal nature are reported in Central Park, on CRIMINAL MINDS, Wednesday, Jan. 17 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. 

In true Criminal Minds fashion CBS is choosing to be as coy about this episode as humanly possible. They’re not giving a whole lot away and as a result of that, we’re left by and large to try and fill in the cracks of what’s going to happen in terms of the case and with the individual characters. “Bad Moon on the Rise” is the third episode of 2018 to air, so it’s possible we’ll get a chance to dive into some other good stories before we even get around to it. There’s nothing seemingly serialized on the horizon similar to what happened to Reid in season 12; if that changes, we’ll of course let you know.
