I find the repetition really funny for some reason. 😅

Regarding the three pirates (four counting the one with the silver key) that were found dead on Terror Island, I always assumed LeChuck murdered them during one of his visits to the island since his diary mentions roasting smores with Iron Rose over burning bodies on Terror Island. There were tongs and a campfire where the bodies were found, so I always assumed that was the implication. I like to think Terror Island was a sort of a retreat area for LeChuck to perform some truly horrific stuff and voodoo magic, to the point that the island itself began to emulate some of that evil. That's more of my headcanon though.

I’ve discovered it in a YouTube let’s play (but unfortunately don't find the video anymore):

Telltales head of marketing changed mid way through season 3 development and he canceled all merch projects I had just started working on the soundtrack packaging when it happened.
