You know what's even more tragic about that scene: the implication of Mildred's fate. She never turned into a vampire, and Leeza's last line "I can't feel my legs" implies that the creature did not, in fact, outrun the sun. So the death of the creature suggests that its "gifts" are immediately taken away... which means Mildred is going to turn old and senile again, and just be completely alone on that island, with no one to turn to, and literally nowhere to go. Unless the children go back right away (which is unlikely; they're probably headed to the mainland). That's fucking depressing... Unless... we see that the creature did fly Mildred out of the church, but do we know for sure that she turned? Does it ever show it, explicitly? Edit: Just re-watched the series. I got it; she turned. No need to keep commenting on it. I'm sorry for ruining everyone's experience.

Beautiful rendition to this hymn. The series is about the Devil (The Dragon), the Anti-Christ (Bev Keane) and the False Profit (Monsignor Paul Hill). The Bible warns us in the Book of Matthew 7:15 - 'Beware of the false profits, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.' The Book of Revelation 13:1 describes the First Beast (Anti-Christ) that is the Catholic Church. Rev. 13:3 - 'One of its heads seemed to have a mortal wound, but its mortal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled as they followed the beast. In 1798, Napoleon sent General Berthier to Rome to kidnap Pope Pius VI (#6) who would later die in captivity, hence the Beast receiving a mortal wound. The Papacy and the Catholic Church had lost its power, its finances were in decline and did not reemerge from its mortal wound until 1929 when Mussolini and Italy awarded 109 acres in Rome to create a new papal state, The Vatican. The prophesy of Daniel 7:25 is fulfilled as The Roman Catholic Church (Anti-Christ) was given authority in 538 A.D. by Emperor Justinian who gave the Pope (False Profit) the title Pontifex Maximus ("Bridge builder between heaven and Earth") and established the papacy as the supreme Christian power. The RCC ruled until 1798 (1260 days) - Dan. 7:25, 12:7, Rev. 12:6, 12:14 13:5. The Pope is the False Profit. The RCC murdered over 50 million Christians during their rule and during the Spanish Inquisition. 'And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain.' Rev. 13:15 Beware my friends, as the Roman Catholic Church (child molesters) are among you performing great signs, even making fire come down from Heaven to earth in front of people. Notice and recognize the false prophets by their fruits and their works. 'Every healthy trees bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit.' Matthew 7:17. Amen

This is one of the best written and conclusive endings I've seen in a while. The way that it shows what each character becomes as they face oblivion is bliss. The people who wanted to follow their God embrace their loved ones and accept death, whilst Bev reveres and is fearful of her afterlife. Monsigner Pruitt taking his collar off showing that he no longer deserved the role after he had lead his followers the their fate. And finally the sheriff and ali, by far the saddest and best moment of the ending scene. As much as Ali lost his faith, he was simply a teenager wishing to fit in with his peers, but in the face of death he stayed by allah. The two on the boat aswell, with the final lines of the show being melancholy and upsetting followed by a smile gives us that sense of satisfaction as we now know that the Vampire was no more. What an absolute masterpiece. I cannot stress enough how amazing a watch this was. Thank you Mike Flanigan.

I like to call it sentimental horror, horror that plays with your damn emotions!

"In their last moments people show you who they really are." Most of the Crockett islanders were good people, who were simply led astray by a false shepard (Bev) yet here in their last moments after all the horror and bloodshed they finally come together and unite as one in that purest expression of true faith, that community spirit of oneness and love with a song in their hearts. Beautiful and dignified to the end. Father John and Mildred cradling their dear daughter at her favourite spot. John tearing his collar off perhaps in acknowledgment of himself being unworthy of the title and knowing the part he played in all this, even with the best and purest of intentions, it caught up with him. He asks his dearest Milly for forgiveness. There is regret, remorse in his last words but without judgement she kisses him and they die together with grace. Sheriff Hassan and his son Ali share one final prayer together, their respective faith shaken but never broken. The ties that bind were stretched and tugged but came back to greet the final dawn. Despite the horrors, prejudice and discrimination they suffered as outsiders their love and resolve is unshakable. They too find peace. And then there's Bev...

@@hdo4ever To me, good horror usually doesn't mean "jumpscare" spookiness. It's more about a sense of dread or disturbing atmosphere that uses horror imagery to explore troubling human behavior. For example, Midsommar is about gaslighting and miscommunication. The VVitch is about feminism and female characters trying to exist within strict religious structures. Annihilation is about how some people pursue self-destruction. The Thing is about mistrust among people. And this show is about hubris, unhealthy expressions of love, and addiction.

I might argue that Bly manor had a more emotional ending than hill house, as great as it was with the bent neck lady and nellies monologue. like no judgement there, hill house is really good. but there's just something about Bly manors ending that had that extra "I'm gonna make you cry your eyes out."

For those who aren't muslim, let me explain something. So muslim prayers can be done alone or with two people, or more. If it just two people with the same gender, then the person who called the Imam or the leader, stands in the left, whereas the ma'mum or the follower (sorry for the incorrect vocabulary, I'm a non native), stands in the right. From episode to episode, Sheriff Hassan was always leading the prayer. But in the end, Ali lead the prayer. Which made a great character arc for Ali. He was a normal muslim kid, started questioning his beliefs, lost in the wrong way, but didn't kill anyone even after changing to a vampire, helped his dad, and then lead the prayer.

Bev symbolizes the fake Christian, who makes Christianity their entire personality even though it's really just a tool for them to get what they want in life, never in death.

I love how this show takes religion in puts in in a nice light while also acknowledging how man can twist it. It's such a beautiful show, and I can't believe it didn't get more credit.

the police officer and son praying is the most powerful thing i've seen so far on tv... extremely moving.

Was crying almost hysterically for a good twenty to thirty minutes during and after the ending of this show. This is, without a doubt, the most emotionally moving and tearjerking ending I’ve ever seen in any horror medium.

As everyone dies singing together, repenting, forgiving one another, and making peace with God, Bev freaks out and tries to escape her death, because she knows what she did is unforgivable.

No I don't think so. She just can't accept that she is going to die and the whole they are the chosen ones is a lie. She's scared that there is no god. She believed in the whole revolations thing in the bible. It's a common trope. Some people die and others don't. And earth becomes heaven on earth. Now everything has gone wrong for Bev. She thought everything she had ever believed had come true and then it backfired. She's having a crisis of faith and she's scared to die. Everyone else seemed to have been so profoundly affected by that night that they welcome death. They have accepted it. They are not trying to find shelter. And they don't really like who they are. There was one guy sobbing after he murdered his kids. She wanted this. And it's all come crashing down around her. She's been terrified her whole life. Hard to love but easy to understand. Poor thing. There is no plan. There is no justice and there is no nothing. We make it. If your whole life is based on expecting, hating, judging be sure to be disapoined.

Whatever religion or belief you have, as long as you're a good person and provide the world with positivity, i believe anyone will ascend to a beautiful afterlife if there is one. Your efforts wont be forgotten in the world.

I 100% agree with you man, but I can only think of three religions that actually believe in an afterlife for the soul, they all share the same God, and that dude is a dick. He’s just like “Good deeds will not win you favor in my domain. Only the singular, true belief in me. That I am. That I will be.” That’s when I stopped believing. Because if you can be the worst person in life, and go to Heaven because you believed in a guy, that’s bullshit. I don’t expect much better from the guy who killed hundreds of thousands for fun, and even more just because they didn’t believe in him.

Grace is a gift freely given to all. No matter the choices you've made in life it's always there. Every major Abrahamic faith tells us that God holds the door for all to enter and only by refusing that gift, either through anger, pride, despair, etc. can it be closed. These faiths also hold that God has countless names that They have used throughout history to speak to man. YHVH, Jehovah, Allah, Buddha, Brahma, and beyond. Thousands of names all calling out to the human race with the same message, imploring us to love as a community, to live with generosity and to share ourselves freely, as God has shared with us.

@@starshotdirector7605 Thats just misinterpretation. That guy (in my religion) sent His son to die for our sins. And only through the Son, we can come to Him. Many interpret this, as a fact that you have to believe in the Son and Father. No, it's just a statement. He gave His life, so we can live. No matter the religion, belief or knowledge of the person/deity... Anyone who answers their inner conscience is welcome...If the people can balance the good and bad in person and be able to love and forgive despite mistakes...Can the creator and love itself not do that? Just be true to yourself...always...and you will be rewarded. No matter the belief.

I wholeheartedly agree. We don't fully understand God's workings entirely and, for all we know, ANYONE who has been a good, kind, loving and accepting person in life (many of the main things in any religion or just in general) and who has not committed too many horrible acts (like murder, racism, letting greed take hold, etc.) may very well be waiting, regardless of what they practice or who they are. Muslim, Christian, Jew, Straight, Homosexual, Transgender, black, white, Asian. God loves each and every one of us, even if some of our actions may break His heart at times. Here's to hoping we're right 🙏.

For all those who have not watched the whole show, please do. As a non religious Australian man with no ancestral culture to hold onto. This made me feel so greatly about the human spirit, I wish to hold all my brother's and sisters in gratitude to our life, no matter our creed or religion. I love you all.

I hated her so much, she did and incredible job, I get mad just seeing her in frame.

Came here because the show still haunts me emotionally. This final scene is just the saddest but also the most beautiful thing. In the end, despite all the horror, I think the ending was a resounding affirmation of humanity.

I love the juxtaposition of Sheriff Hassan and Bev Keane at the end. The Sheriff dies while doing his morning prayers (Dignity intacted) and Bev succumbing to her fear and digs into the dirt at the last possible second. For all the horrible stuff that happened in this show, I can't help but smile to seeing the Sheriff leave in peace and Bev die suffering mind and body.

I can't hate Father Paul. I just can't. He was foolish and naive but he did what he did out of love. And even repelled the out of control evil that stemmed from his actions. Not a villain.....close but no.

Think of the position he was when he went on his trip; aged, losing himself to dementia, having to watch the love of his life suffer the same, not able to let his daughter know she's his, facing the end with all these regrets. And then he gets an opportunity to get it all back and have the family he desperately wanted at last. His actions can be understood, if not condoned. The problem is he mistook a devil for an angel (but then, wasn't Lucifer that originally?).

He wasn't a villain at all. He put himself on the hands of a demon out of desperation, but however awful his actions were, I think they were always done out of genuine faith, at least before he started turning. In contrast to Bev who also mistook a demon for an angel, except she did everything out of religious fanaticism.

Honestly, is the demon even that bad of a person here? It's just doing its own thing and what it's essentially supposed to do. It's Bev who makes everything go wrong.

This show was a 1 time masterpiece that will forever be held to my highest standards until the end of time

All wanted better. Most fell to temptation. Most found redemption. And Bev got what she deserved.

the most heartbreaking finale I’ve watched in a very long time. I keep coming back just to watch this scene and cry.

This is possibly the only show in my entire life where I think about it weeks after with many real life questions and thoughts. Well done Mike.

It’s tragic, but it speaks honest to his character at the end that Pruitt’s last words on earth were asking for forgiveness, not from his god, but from the woman he loved. He literally moved Heaven and (almost brought) Hell on Earth for a second chance to be with her.

At first I was a bit disappointed Bev didn’t get a more gruesome ending like she deserved. But when you think about it, it’s perfect. She died, on her own, screaming in vain and trying to hide from the light of the lord she CLAIMED all her life to love in fear of its judgment, because she knew she’d be found unworthy of it. She was a terrible person and she knew it, with no where left to run from the truth.

probably one of the best endings to any show or film. Everyone apart from Bev found peace and went out with the people they loved, facing the end with dignity.
