What did Ashley... (spoilers)


...pull out of her leg? Did anyone get a good look at it? Couldn't tell if it was some sort of bug/parasite or a bunch of sticks like the hanging dolls. Sorry if this has been discussed already. Probably one of the creepiest parts of the movie IMO.

Looked like a centipede

I thought it was a twig like a pine needle or something.

Either way, it was kinda pointless and was only there for gross-out factor.

Looked like a botfly with a massive twiggy tail.

It looked like a very creepy-looking centipede to me, but I couldn't make it out. I would assume that it actually was some type of parasitic creature that entered Ashley's body considering the "moving" cut she got from crossing the river barefoot (which was a dumbass idea to me).

I thought it was a tooth maybe .and then what came out was pus. Grossed me out though.

The writer just confirmed it was a tree root.

Ditto. She was turning into a stick figure. And was even grabbed by appeared to be one in the tree. Possibly Elly? Who knows. Just more speculation

Well that whole plot line just got about 50% less scary :(

Makes sense when you look at the lore.
