Warning: beyond this point, there be spoilers for The Witcher Season 2.

At the end of the season, the major arcs of the story all largely collide at Kaer Morhen, home of the witchers, when a possessed Ciri takes on Geralt, Vesemir, and the rest with help from some deadly basilisk. It’s one of the most complicated scenes in the season with numerous performers and CGI critters, and apparently was referred as as “the monster mash” by everyone because of its many moving parts.
