This series ended so messy.

If you can recall, Wyatt/Hunter is adopted in PA4. The directors said they would further go into why/how he was adopted later (obviously they did not lol) but overall fan theory was Katie put him up for adoption until he was old enough for his purpose in the ritual. Possible so she could avoid capture while caring for him through infant/toddler years. The directors also said Robbie (the other child with Katie in PA4) acts as a messenger for the coven and lures when necessary. So he was basically a gateway for Katie to grab hold of Hunter again, as Robbie could befriend and grow close with him.
The Marked Ones actually opened the concept up further. It was connected way more than just the ending, if you really watched the film. Jesse/Oscar being examples of other marked first borns (showing this isn't just randomly happening to Katie's family). Ana and Lois (grandma from PA3) photoed together, both witches. Showing the coven is much larger than audiences might have believed. And so much more stuff if you'd watch it again.
TMO answered a lot of questions people had about PA3 and the revelation of the ending/coven. But even with all the eggs and connections, it's still just seen as a spinoff and almost standalone. However, it is also important to the grand scheme.
PA4 would actually be the pointless one to me. It brought nothing new to the story. No one really needed to know where Hunter was because we learned about the first born male role in PA2/PA3.
Bloody Mary = a witch grabbing you after saying it so many times in a mirror. The series deals with a witch coven so yeah, that's simple to understand. The kids doing it could be seen as a summoning of sorts, and things start getting more aggressive after it happens in PA3 and the new one.
