"I won't keep you, if you choose to leave. But I want you to choose which door to go through based on your faith," he said, informing the women that their decision has 'everything' to do with their wish to leave.
Further details about the plot - and what Grant's character is planning to subject the women to - remains to seen, but it would appear that he's up to no good, as the women are later seen bloodied and afraid while navigating a series of eerie looking backrooms.

Heretic is currently scheduled to be released in UK cinemas on 22 November, a week after its premiere in the US.
