Why go to therapy when you lose a loved one when you can simply reanimate their dead corpse, create new kids and hold an entire town hostage? Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) has unraveled in her grief.

From the beginning of 'WandaVision', we knew that something was seriously off with Wanda's perfect little suburban world. She and Vision (Paul Bettany) have children, who seem to be growing by leaps and bounds, and their neighbors don't bat an eyelid. It turns out that Wanda is puppeteering Vision and the whole town.

She had broken into SWORD and stolen Vision's corpse and reanimated it to deal with her grief of losing him in 'Avengers: Infinity War'. Vision is slowly piecing the puzzle together and tries to break free as he realizes that there are people suffering. However, Wanda isn't going to let that happen, convincing fans that she is the actual villain of the story.

A fan tweeted, "#wandavision spoilers, - - - - - - - - - - when they showed the footage of how wanda went after vision's corpse i was PERTURBED she was absolutely deranged and it was scary as fuck." 

Others say that they expected this all along: "why is everyone mad about the ending the only reason Vision is here is cause she stole his literal carcass she can't get Pietro cause like.. yknow literal human decay and plus idk where the fuck his corpse is so like... context clupeople!"

A user wrote: "We can't rush aging because it's convenient, and we can't reverse death" said the woman who stole a body and reanimate a corpse. #WandaVision."

A fan tweeted, quoting Wanda's dialogue to her children, when they lose their puppy. "BRUH WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT EPISODE? WANDA WHAT THE ABOSUTE FU- ok but did she have to recast Pietro because she didn’t have his corpse to reanimate like she did with vision? what happens if vision leaves? WILL HE DIE?!?!" a fan wrote. Others say that Wanda is actually the villain of the show. "wanda: steals vision’s corpse. holds hostage a whole town. controls their minds. and threats SWORD to kill them if they don’t leave her alone. she’s actually the villain of the show atm," a user wrote.
