** After [[spoiler:staking Anna]], the party opens up Erszebet's coffin. You'd expect the vampire to be sleeping, right? Wrong. It's empty. Then things go hell.

* The way Erszebet toyed with people, at various points pretending to be a seamstress to fool Anna, then after that pays a visit to the church to deliver a BreakingSpeech to Father Lupescu after Anna had visited him, seemingly for no other reason than [[KickTheDog because she could]]. And in between, we get to see that she [[ForTheEvulz killed the shop owner]] [[WouldHurtAChild and her child]], '''''[[AdultFear including a view of the baby's crib spattered in blood]]'''''.

* The BodyHorror Professor Sakai goes through the longer he's possessed. Aside from turning red and taking on oni-like features, his body grows swollen and bloated. Granted his body is being inhabited by two demons, it's still unsettling.

* The cold opening, showing the events at how Professor Bruttenholm first killed Erszebet. He is aided by several local policemen, including the girl's fiancé, and Father Lupescu. Needless to say, things do **NOT** go according to plan.

** Bruttenholm and two other men turn in response to a hiss, and the bearded policeman is [[OffscreenTeleportation nowhere to be seen.]] He sees a drop of blood on his sleeve, and turns the flashlight up to see the man dangling from the ceiling, his corpse ghostly pale and face drawn in a rictus of terror.

The [[OhCrap reaction]] says it all.
** Erszebet bares her fangs and hisses, the two policemen left promptly [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere book it]] with Bruttenholm trying to calm them down. Erszebet promptly summons her [[SavageWolves spectral wolves]], and when the unfortunate men hear their howls, they flee down two separate corridors, to the Professor's [[BigNo dismay.]] We then are subject to the sounds of the wolves barking and the screams of the men, followed by flesh tearing as they are torn apart offscreen, leaving [[SoleSurvivor Bruttenholm]] at Erszebet's mercy. If it hadn't been for that quick thinking with the holy water, Erszebet [[NearVillainVictory would have won right there.]]

* The fate of Erzsebet's victims, including those that went with Bruttenholm when she was first killed. The women she killed to maintain her beauty are bound to the implements of torture and thus are forced to wander the mansion, begging for help. Meanwhile, [[ForegoneConclusion the flashbacks leading up to Erzebet's first death]] are presented in reverse so that the fates of the characters, which are particularly gruesome, are already known.

** We get a cut to a portrait of Erszebet on the wall, followed by an echoing hiss, the first hint things are about to go sideways, then several skeletons are seen littered about the chamber, remains of some of the poor souls Erszebet killed.
** Several instruments of torture are shown, with [[SarcasmMode lovely]] cuts to Erszebet's victims being [[ColdBloodedTorture tortured.]] The sight of it all makes Father Lupescu briefly freak out, and it's hard to blame him.
** The party breaks down a wall to [[YouAreTooLate find Anna's dead body lying on the floor.]] Also doubles as a TearJerker, considering her fiancé's distraught reaction, not to mention [[EatenAlive what happens]] to the poor man shortly afterward.
