B7#5
Juicy chord extensions are usually associated with major-key blues, but some will work in minor keys. Here are some alternatives for the final bar.
We’re in the key of E minor, so we’re using B chords. Start with this B7#5…

B7#5#9 (B7#5b9)
We can extend that to create B7#5#9.
In fact, make it even more interesting by then adding B7#5b9 (use the white blob) before resolving to Em or Em9.
