Death of a Unicorn is the latest horror film to hit the theaters, and it has gotten people talking for a number of reasons. The trailers offered a peek into the film as it showed Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega as a father and daughter accidentally hitting a unicorn. His boss learns about their healing powers and decides to exploit them for the benefit of his pharmaceutical company.

It seemed like yet another exciting film that combined the elements of comedy and psychological horror. Now that it is out in cinemas, some people might be wondering if it includes a post-credit sequence. After all, it has become more common these days to find a snippet of a scene after the credits start rolling.

They usually appear in superhero movies and offer enough insights for the fans to speculate about the franchise's future direction.

Death of a Unicorn is neither a superhero film nor a part of a film franchise. However, it's a horror film, and most recently, Companion and The Monkey had mid- or post-credit scenes. So, some people might be worried if they missed out on such a scene during the film's credits. Unlike the recent horror films, Death of a Unicorn does not include a mid or post-credit scene.

Death of a Unicorn shows a father taking his daughter with him to his mega-wealthy boss's house in the wilderness. Their journey doesn't go well as they get into a strange accident. After accidentally hitting a unicorn, they join his boss's family and try their best to hide the incident. However, the family learns about the unicorn and its healing properties. So, they decide to profit from it, which puts them in more harm than good.

The unicorns come out of woodwork, quite literally, and end up creating a living nightmare for all of them. Eventually, toward the film's end, Shepard (Will Poulter) gets brutally injured. Elliot (Rudd) dies only to be brought back to life by the unicorns. The cops think that the father-daughter duo committed a mass murder and arrest them. However, the unicorns decide to rescue them from capture.

The police car spirals out of control, leaving Elliot and Ridley's (Ortega) fate in question. So, this cliffhanger ending might get people expecting a potential sequel. However, no such plans have been announced by writer-director Alex Scharfman or the A24 studio, who backed this project. In addition to that, Death of Unicorn does not include any post or mid-credit scenes either. So, it will likely not receive a sequel.
