System.Web.HttpcontextBase problems in Orchard 1.8 (possibly due to Visual studio 2015)

I'm running a website on Orchard 1.8.

I tried Visual Studio 2015 RC and built my Orchard project using this version. Since then, my error logs are flooded with the Autofac errors saying that System.Web.HttpContextBase cannot be resolved (see stacktrace below).

I reverted back to VS2013 (i did not uninstall VS2015) but the errors didn't go away. I'm not sure if this is even the problem...

My test environment to which I deployed the solution also started having the same problems.

Could this be related to the .NET version which is installed? (4.6 local, 4.5.2 remote)

Also, this seems to be causing stack overflow exceptions which are a huge problem at the moment. Any leads are highly appreciated!
