Returning to the present, Phanora Kristoffel and the police officer find themselves summoned to the culprit's villa, where a tense confrontation unfolds. The necromancer's selfish desires are laid bare as he divulges his twisted plan to resurrect his wife at any cost, disregarding the consequences for those he turns undead. However, his plans are thwarted when Phanora reveals her true identity as not just a necromancer but also a powerful witch.
