A disrupted world
Towards end, DeWitt is again at old baptism where we see multiple versions of Elizabeth or Anna who appear on scene. This is where he comes to realisation that he is t just himself, but he is also Comstock. We see three copies of Elizabeth drown DeWitt in river, however, he doesn't really appear to protest and seemingly dies. screen goes black as all different versions of Elizabeth start to fade away, except for one that survived.
However, it does t reveal if she is still alive or if she later disappeared after camera pulled back. As for post-credit scene, it could mean that scene is real and that DeWitt is alive or it’s just Elizabeth’s imagination where all universe have been erased.
