    Difference is due to the usage of prepositions:

    1) At the end:
    Example: I can see light at the end of the tunnel.
    Example: The restrooms are at the end of the hall.

    2) In the end:
    Example: The hero killed the villian in the end.
    Example: I laughed so much that I cried in the end.

    3) To the end:
    Example: I will go to the end of the world for you.
    Example: I will make you read to the end of the story.

    4) By the end:
    Example: I want the reports by the end of day today.
    Example: Catch it by the end of its tail.
