With Imaginary out in cinemas now, you might be wondering if the new Blumhouse horror has a post-credits scene – here’s everything you need to know. 

Horror’s latest entry is Imaginary, directed by Jeff Wadlow and starring DeWanda Wise, Tom Payne, Taegen Burns, and Pyper Braun, as well as Carrie alum Betty Buckley. As per the official synopsis: “When Jessica (Wise) moves back into her childhood home with her family, her youngest stepdaughter Alice (Braun) develops an eerie attachment to a stuffed bear named Chauncey she finds in the basement. 

“Alice starts playing games with Chauncey that begin playful and become increasingly sinister. As Alice’s behavior becomes more and more concerning, Jessica intervenes only to realize Chauncey is much more than the stuffed toy bear she believed him to be.”

Imaginary landed in theaters today (March 8) – but do you need to stay once the movie reaches its ending? Read on to find out if the film has a post-credits scene. 

Does Imaginary have a post-credits scene?

No, Imaginary does not have a post-credits scene.

This isn’t surprising, given it’s a standalone movie and there’s no sequel confirmed at the time of writing. 

Although the MCU has made us think we need to stay seated during the credits to find a tease of what’s next, there’s no need to unless you want to take note of everyone involved in the production of Imaginary. 

As for whether there could be an Imaginary 2, nothing’s been announced as of yet – but if it were to get the greenlight, Wadlow’s certainly keen. 

Speaking to Dexerto, he said: “I would love to see a sequel to this movie. There’s so much more to explore – we just barely open the door to this other world, the Never Ever.

“That’s why I think our movie is kind of bigger than other horror movies in this sort of evil toy subgenre. I mean, ultimately, Chucky, Annabelle, M3GAN – it’s really just about the individual character in those pieces. Whereas Imaginary, it’s not called Chauncey. 

“There’s a reason why the film is not called Chauncey, because it’s about so much more than just him. It’s about imagination.”

The filmmaker went on to say, “If you’re asking me if there’s room for a sequel, in a movie about imagination, there’s room for a thousand movies.”
