“Demons of the South, we summon you!” she shouted, pointing her candle southward as best she could without letting it go out.

“Hail, Demons of the South,” the men chanted. Out of the corner of his eye, Dennis noticed Kurt scratching his head. He looked as if he couldn’t remember all the words. “Come and walk among us on this, the unholy night of Samhain.”

Eva turned toward the west. “Demons of the West, we summon you!” she screamed, stamping her heel into the earth for emphasis.

Dennis chanted his line about the demons of the west. He heard voices calling his name. A wave of panic ran through him. All of this Satanic stuff was supposed to be for show. Had Eva actually managed to summon some demons this time?
