Black Screen When Doing Black Magic

I just got back to playing Hunt after a long hiatus. Still basically a new player with just a handful of hours. Now when I try to play, I end up getting black screens randomly. Or at least I thought it was randomly. The screen will go black, and I will still be able to hear my character breathing. My teammates will see me standing there, or walking aimlessly forward.

It is actually triggered by creepy Hunt magic stuff. If I try to pick up a bounty, BOOM, game freezes at that moment, instant black screen. Next games I avoid bounties, and am rock solid. Couple games later, some other hunters have the bounty, I try to hold E to use creepy-vision. BOOM, game instantly freezes, screen goes black.

If I stick to just the FPS elements, I get through a match just fine.

Some other notes:

I have tried Alt Enter to switch between window and windowless when this happens, but it makes no difference.

I am still getting newbie tips on the screen whenever I do stuff. E.g. "Look around for clues by holding E" etc. Even though I am 99% I got through all those back in the day.

I play in ultra wide screen 3440 x 1440

I have dual Radeon Fury 9X video cards, but I think the game only uses one of them.

I have verified game files.

My game is installed on an SSD.

I don't recall having these lock up/black screen issues back when I was first playing.

Sometimes when I reload the game afterward and get back in, It will say "You have been previously disconnected error 0x7111" or some such. Which sounds like a disconnect issue. But that might just be triggered by said lock ups.

Usually the only other stuff I have running at the same time as Hunt is, steam, discord, and a couple hundred chrome browser tabs.

Any insight would be appreciated, pardners.
