Wraith hunting resulting in freeze #5

(I have a save game in this state, if it would be helpful)

Since upgrading to 1.1a, I noticed that when hunting wraiths as a Paladin, loading the wraith sprites sometimes becomes slow, and initiating combat with the wraiths requires very close proximity. After winning the battle with the game in that state, the combat screen exits, leaving the hero in the forest. I can search the wraith's barrow, or interact with the scenery, but when the character walks out of the scene, the game locks up. Sound effects keep playing, but I can no longer load the character menu, interact with scenery, walk back on screen, or really do anything.

I found a workaround - sleep overnight somewhere and try again the next night. Simply exiting the game and reloading doesn't seem to help.

Looking at the debug window in ScummVM, I believe it said room or script 800 was where the error was. I'm happy to check.
