Yo. Quick request.

Something about the movie has been driving me utterly batty, and I was wondering if someone could help. If anyone happens to have stills of the scene where Holmes is utterly blasted and performing satanic rituals in his room above the Punchbowl, I would be so happy if I could get a link. Or, if you happen to simply know the answer to this question, I'd be eternally grateful (even if I'd still like to see the answer myself). Here's my beef:

While Holmes is higher than kite, sitting in the middle of a pentagram, he starts having these rapid-fire flashbacks that help put all the info he's gathered into a cohesive whole. And this is all well and good, except for the scene at the very end. I can't remember what was said, but Blackwood had some strange voice-over, no doubt saying something delightfully discouraging, as a face begins to appear out of the darkness. It's all lit in blue, and it's only on the screen for a second, and for the life of me I can't figure out who it is (or what it. Maybe it isn't a face at all). But the look on Holmes' face when he sees it is just sort of lost and heart-broken, or at the very least discouraged, and then a crow flies out of the darkness, and he wakes up in a bed with Irene hovering over him.

So the question: Is this a face? If so, whose? Feasibly, I think it could be Watson, Blackwood, or even Holmes himself. I just don't know. Anybody?

Again,  appreciate your pandering to my crazy.

Aha! Thank you so much. You assuage my curiosity nicely. I had thought it was Blackwood too, but I like to imagine I see things when I don't :/

BUT THANKS!
