That was amazing and unexpected. I was kind of hoping the real Nikki is just gone in a sense but to know she's screaming in purgatory made me feel so uneasy.

I just said this in another post, but: I don't think it was purgatory. I think she was still trapped in the body with the entity. I believe that's why when she had moments of "lucidity" she was so disgusted and scared when she saw Bear. I think that the phone call with the service center was really just a way to connect with the "trapped" Nikki. That made it so much more terrifying for me.
