She Came from the Woods concludes on a chilling note, as the few surviving teenagers escape the horrific massacre at Camp Crosswood, but the sinister supernatural entity they accidentally unleashed remains hauntingly at large. After the vengeful ghost Agatha sadistically murders most of the counselors, Heather and the remaining survivors defeat her through a ritual sacrifice. However, the ending implies Agatha’s evil spirit endures, as her voice still echoes throughout the woods. The coda suggests the friends have survived the night but remain psychologically scarred, forever changed by the gruesome events. Though they conquered the literal ghost, the metaphorical “ghost” of trauma, guilt and grief will continue to haunt them. The finale’s ominous tone proposes that the darkness conjured from Camp Crosswood’s sinister history cannot be totally banished, only temporarily suppressed. Heather and the others emerge from the woods wiser about the presence of evil – both human and supernatural – lurking beneath the surface of lives and places. But the relief of dawn cannot completely pierce the lingering shadows over their souls. The conclusion conveys that though we may defeat our demons, we are forever marked by confronting the depths of depravity and terror in this world.
