'The Curse Of Oak Island' Season 8 Episode 6: Why do the Laginas believe Erin's theory? Fans call it 'batsh*t crazy'

'I have suspended disbelief as I follow the exploits of the crew and batsh*t crazy theories from all over the loonie bin for 8 seasons. I am running out of gas,' a fan wrote

There have been many crazy theories on 'The Curse Of Oak Island' but the latest one has left fans rolling their eyes in disbelief. Erin Helton's work brought out a rather far-fetched theory, and the Laginas' and their team are ready to explore it. Last season, their fellow historians had informed them that there was a geometric figure in Nicolas Poussin's paintings, which could lead to the buried treasure. This geometric figure was nothing less than a treasure map.

In Episode 4, the team found a "perfect line" that starts from Jerusalem, leads through Versailles and ends at Oak Island. They're sure that the Knights Templar dug up Solomon's treasure that consisted of Menorah, that *could* have been taken to North America for safekeeping. The Menorah could have been buried at Oak Island. In Episode 5, the theory gains more fuel as Erin decides to interpret the ancient Zena Halpern's map, which again discusses "strategically" placed boulders, that *might* point to the Money Pit. 

In the latest episode, Erin is back, and fans are not here for it. "Erin thinks Zena is in possession of a couple of other clues? Oh god, they're going to dig her up aren't they??? #OakIslandCursers #CurseOfOakIsland," one tweeted.

"I have suspended disbelief as I follow the exploits of the crew and batsh*t crazy theories from all over the loonie bin for 8 seasons. I am running out of gas. #curseofoakisland #OakIslandCursers," a fan wrote, rather emphatically.

Fans are really not holding back on their thoughts. "This anchor demonstration geometry etchasketch horseshit is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen on a show that’s predicated on stupid horseshit. Reminds me of this nonsense #oakisland #curseofoakisland #oakislandcursers #oakislandwatchparty," one wrote. Fans say that Erin should just become a member of the team. "Time to make Erin an actual team member! #OakIslandCursers #curseofoakisland," one tweeted. 

Meanwhile, other things are happening on 'The Curse Of Oak Island'.For the Oak Islanders, they know that the team has been considering possibility of a burnt ship being sunk into the swamp. The swamp is an endless mystery and treasure hunters have been trying to unravel its riddles for over years now. Their seismic scans show some strange anomaly and currently, the belief is: Could a Spanish galleon filled with treasure lie at the bottom of the swamp?

'The Curse Of Oak Island' airs on History Channel, Tuesdays at 9pm.
