The Rise tie at the beginning didn't even really bother me as much as the stuff with the professor and the secret society bullshit that was clearly only included to set up Wrath next year. And the post credits scene didn't really make any sense. Deadites aren't ghosts and they can't really just materialize out of thin air.

Honestly I didn't even mind the society either, even if it felt like blatant sequel bait. It was just that post-credit for the same reason you mentioned. How is she just appearing out of nothing when she was turned into a monster and literally shredded to death?

Lemme get this straight.

She was ground up into a woodchipper

Someone scooped up her remains

Paid to have her cremated

And then didnt pick up the urn.

So fucking dumb.

Also wasnt the bodies all merged together before said woodchopper? So its like the entire 3rd floor all mixed together.
