Is this all building up to something huge?

In my mind, all she's guilty of is killing her husband. She was obviously possessed during the other murders, so it's a little silly to hold her accountable for them. If you're going to pin Dominic's death on her, you have to blame that on Audrey, too.

I do blame her for more than just killing Mason. Yes, Audrey was also complicit in Dominic's death, but Lee was the one who shoved him out of the room and locked the door. Audrey actually tried to get Lee to let Dominic back in, but she refused.
Lee wasn't possessed when she killed Jether Polk. Yes, he had been involved in torturing her, but she was a former cop. I'm sure she could have figured out a way to incapacitate him rather than kill him if she had really wanted to.
Lee was responsible for putting other people in dangerwhich ultimately led to many deaths. She knew she was guilty of Mason's murder when she agreed to go back to the house to film RTR. Her motive for going back there was to clear her nameapparently she thought getting footage of the real ghosts would go a long way toward deflecting suspicion away from her. She knew she was guilty, therefore participating in a show where she knew everyone there would be in danger JUST so she could get away with murdering her husband was reckless endangerment of all of those other people IMO. So, indirectly she is responsible for their deaths, too. She also manipulated both Audrey and Dylan into going back to the Polk's farm to retrieve the camera with the footage of her confession. She knew it was dangerous. She knew that not only was there a pretty good chance they could get caught by the two remaining Polksbut she also knew the Butcher and the other ghosts were real and that they could run afoul of the ghosts. Either way, she again knowingly put other people's lives in danger for her own nefarious purposes.
We also don't know for a fact that she was possessed by Scathatch. The Butcher didn't seem possessed by hershe seemed to be knowingly going along with Scathatch's wishes in repayment for saving her life. How do we know Lee wasn't doing the same? The way I see it, Lee already knew the story of Scathatch and the Butcher. If she was out there alone in the woods during the Blood Moon and had no way to escape from the ghosts, she might have been desperate enough to make the same deal as the Butcher had all those years ago. -

What if the ghosts territory grows as Lee leaves the roanoke grounds. Imagine during the interview lee says something "witchy" the camera cuts from Lee to Sarah paulson and the witch and butcher etc are all standing around behind her Bloodbath, ghosts are loose, the end Just a thought

True, they just took all the horror tropes they could find and mixed them into a plot, showing all the audiences darlings as long as the audience wanted to see them.
Season 2 ties up rather neatly though and season 1 decided to be mainly the story of one character. This season kind of manages to follow a narrative, still rather loose but at least advancing instead of the random forth and back of the last three seasons which all ended with an episode with some lazy excuse of an ending. -

When has this show ever built up to something huge? Every season is the same, setting up all these plot lines and then just fizzling out by the final episode.
This season has been different though. Its been 2 different stories in one season. The documentary style storytelling made it feel unique and different and it always gave off that vibe that there was something more to it than what they were telling us. Then after that we had the RTR which felt even more different. The whole thing reaked of being staged for a tv show. From cheap thrills to Audrey being your typical hysterical horror movie character none of it has felt real. So between the two stories it just feels like theres something more going on than what we've seen. I've been waiting for the big reveal to happen and it hasn't yet which is why I think something big is coming for next weeks finale.
Or I'm just overthinking it and this is just a season that didn't have any real meaning other than being "scary". But I feel like theres more. There has to be.
