Back in control with Chris and his visible forehead boo-boo, I came across blood splatter on the wall. Awesome. Outside, I found another death totem, and this one honestly freaks me out. Chris is outside somewhere being lifted off the ground off-screen by what sounds like a creature/monster. Like I feel good about Josh being an antagonist, and I'm fairly certain we have another antagonist of unknown origins, but if I am dealing with a monster on top of this, this is a lot to take in. I'm also nervous to walk anywhere outside because it could be the last step I take given there were no defining characteristics, to me, of the exact location where Chris could meet his demise.

Great, a freshly severed pig's head like this is an offering shrine. Do we have sacrificial cultists too? The music just went completely silent as I walked down the path getting further away from the lodge, and I just want to go back to the lodge, find Sam, and just hang out until dawn. I eventually came across another creepy-looking building, and to the side of it, I found a loss totem where Ashley's head is severed from her body. Poor Jess appears to have gotten it easy, maybe. If she died from the fall, at least that was instant and painless (though I realize the 10 or so minutes leading up to it were far from great). I see this completely empty good fortune totem. When can I get some of that action?

I finally went inside, and I do not like this at all. I was under the impression that all characters could live, but they are making it seem like I have to choose between Ashley and Josh. You know what? This is actually an easy decision. I think Josh attacked and dragged Ashley to this location and put himself up on that wall to make it seem like he was also captured. Whatever test/game/prank/punishment this is, I think that choosing to save Ashley is the "correct" choice for this moment. Well...that happened. It certainly certainly looked real that Josh was severed in half, but with Josh's dad having directed a horror movie and knowing there are props/costumes in the lodge, I think it is possible that Josh was familiar enough with how they worked and was able to fake his own death with fake guts and some visual trick to make it seem like his bottom and top half were separated. Chris and Ashley didn't check the body for signs of life, so I'm still onto you pal!

After a long hiatus, Emily and Matt make an appearance. Why the hell would they show up at this location though? That's a little suspicious. After Chris and Ashley went back toward the lodge, Emily and Matt stayed a little behind looking a little suspicious, confused, or both. It is odd that we were never in control of them when they set off to go back to the cable car station. Maybe the game only has two antagonist, and they were occupied with Mike/Jess and Chris/Ashley.

Back with Dr. Hill, it is becoming more imaginative/nightmarish, and Hill even drops the suggestion that none of this is real. I really don't know what to make of this post-chapter segments.
