WandaVision Finale - 8 MASSIVE Easter Eggs, References And Secrets, Explained

8. The Darkhold And The Sorcerer Supreme

WandaVision's seventh episode concluded with the bombshell that Kathryn Hahn's Agnes was really the witch Agatha Harkness, and that she'd been manipulating elements of Westview from right underneath Wanda's nose.

Many had predicted that Agnes was indeed Agatha, but her motivations and goals were left unclear until last week's episode, which entailed a deep dive through Wanda's past. One element that episode left uncovered however was the sinister looking book in Agatha's basement, with episode seven featuring a lingering shot of the object before shifting focus back to Agatha and her rabbit Scratchy.

Many fans initially speculated the book to be the Darkhold, an ancient text from Marvel Comics that was previously featured in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., but there were also shouts from others (including myself) that it may have even potentially been the Necronomicon, a key text in Scarlet Witch's history that alerts Wanda to the fact she is a Nexus Being, a figure at the centre of the Marvel Multiverse in the comics.

The series finale finally reveals the book to be the Darkhold however, which is slightly confusing given its presence in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., but whatever - it's here in WandaVision, and it has a gnarly new design. It's unclear whether its backstory from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. remains intact, or indeed whether or not it's still connected to the Dark Dimension, but it still boasts another connection to Doctor Strange.

As Agatha recounts the prophecy of the Scarlet Witch, she mentions how the witch's power would exceed even that of the "Sorcerer Supreme", a role currently occupied by Stephen Strange.

Either way it looks as though Marvel have big plans for the text, which in the comics was created by the dark lord Chthon, and used to create the first ever vampire in Marvel history.
