After two weeks of “Wisteria” hysteria*, it seems likely that the Untitled David Lynch Project for Netflix actually has, in fact, a title. And it remains in the plant kingdom.

Our official source for the scoop on a David Lynch directed Netflix series, Production Weekly, in its December 10 issue replaced “Untitled David Lynch Project” with the curiosity-inducing “Unrecorded Night.” According to the trade publication, “Wisteria” remains the working title.

It has stayed off the radar for a surprisingly long time that David Lynch copyrighted 13 unpublished ‘episodes’ of Unrecorded Night in the “Dramatic Work” category back in June 2020. The work itself was created in 2019.

A total of 13 episodes were filed, which matches the number of mini-movies mentioned by Reddit user canthaveit who was “in the know” about a David Lynch project codenamed Wisteria since February.

Besides just being a cool Lynchian title, “Unrecorded Night” is also the translation for the Old English word “nihtscada” or nightshade. The nightshade family includes many poisonous and psychoactive plants, like Mandrake, Belladone, and Henbane. That circles us back to Wisteria, which contains a toxic called wisterin that may cause confusion, dizziness, speech problems, and collapse. And there we have all the proper elements for the plot of a new David Lynch project.
