90 Day Diaries Season Finale: Ed Takes His Blind Date to a Haunted House — and Things Get Spooky 👻❤️💀
The 90 Day Diaries season finale just aired, and fans were treated to one of the most awkwardly entertaining dates in franchise history. Yes, we’re talking about Ed, aka “Big Ed,” who decided that the best way to impress a new blind date was by taking her to… a haunted house. What could go wrong?
Answer: almost everything — and in true 90 Day fashion, it was messy, hilarious, and kind of sweet in the weirdest way.
Let’s break it down.
🎃 The Setup: A Blind Date with Baggage
After a rollercoaster history with Rose, Liz, and more second chances than we can count, Ed is back on the dating scene. This time, though, he’s trying something different: a blind date set up by a mutual friend who thinks he’s finally ready to move on — and move forward.
The woman, Talia, is new to the 90 Day universe, but she brought major confidence, good humor, and more than a little skepticism. “I’ve never gone on a blind date with a guy who’s been on reality TV… and has his own mayonnaise meme,” she joked during her intro interview.
Respect.
Ed, ever the wildcard, wanted to make a “memorable impression.” So, naturally, he planned their first meeting at a haunted house attraction. Because nothing says romance like jump scares and fake blood, right?
💀 The Haunted House: Romance or Red Flag?
From the moment they arrived, things got spooky — and not just because of the costumed monsters. Ed, clearly nervous, tried to play the confident, adventurous guy, but the haunted house quickly turned him into a sweaty, shrieking mess. Meanwhile, Talia handled the scares like a champ.
At one point, Ed screamed louder than anyone else when a clown with a chainsaw lunged out of the fog. Talia? She laughed — hard. “I think he screamed louder than I did,” she said in a confessional. “He held onto my arm like I was a bodyguard.”
Cue the internet roasting. 💀
But even amid the awkwardness, there were moments of connection. After escaping the zombie maze, the two shared a quiet moment on a hay bale outside the attraction. Ed opened up about his past, his regrets, and how hard it’s been to trust again. Surprisingly, Talia didn’t run. In fact, she seemed… touched.
“I like that he’s vulnerable. He’s a little chaotic, but who isn’t?” she said, half-smiling.
