Even though the finale was a bit flaccid, this season of Starz’s “Ash vs Evil Dead” was quite simply dynamite. One of the highlights came during the two season arcs being bridged together – Ash (Bruce Campbell) finds himself locked in a mental facility questioning whether or not the events of the entire Evil Dead franchise actually occurred – or if he’s really a mass murderer that the town’s people dubbed “Ashy Slashy”.
NECA will be commemorating this episode in 2017 with the release of their very own Ashy Slashy puppet, as teased in the below tweet.

Lee Majors (Do You Believe), Ted Raimi (“Xena: Warrior Princess,” Spider-Man) and Michelle Hurd (“Law & Order: SVU”) join the cast this year as Brock Williams, Ash’s father, Chet Kaminski, Ash’s childhood best friend, and Linda, Ash’s high school love respectively.
