In the film’s climax the two detectives finally trace the mysterious “Prophet” to a house that once belonged to his father. While Inspector Garcia rushes inside, his partner Castro receives a desperate call from a former gang member, Lidia Vega, who reveals that the Prophet’s real name is Ramos—the very police officer who had first found Saioa on the road. The revelation comes too late; Ramos ambushes Garcia, shooting him dead before Castro can intervene.

Grief‑stricken, Castro follows the trail to an abandoned mine where Ramos has taken the nurse he kidnapped earlier. Inside the dark tunnels, Ramos, now dressed in a druidic garb, prepares to perform the final ritual sacrifice. A fierce shoot‑out erupts, and Castro manages to kill Ramos, rescuing the nurse and ending the cycle of sacrificial killings that had haunted the town.

The film closes with Castro, wounded in the arm, returning to the hospital to see her recovering boyfriend. As she steps outside, a radio announcement warns that the lockdown will be extended for another fifteen days, underscoring how the pandemic’s grip on daily life persists even as the personal horror has been resolved.
