->''Contrary to popular belief, some demons do, in fact, have some remains that they leave behind once they've expired. Most of them amount to piles of ash with some teeth and horns, but in some cases- specifically if they're eliminated in extreme cold- they leave behind more intact specimens.\\
This one, for instance, is- yes, I know, it's mostly made up of phalluses. Quit laughing. This is what an incubus looks like without any glamour on it. We managed to dissect it, and found that its structure was not carbon-based, silicon-based, or even sulfur-based. This is an arsenic-based organism. You may have heard about the discovery of arsenic-based bacteria by Felisa Wolfe-Simon's team in 2010? Unfortunately, that was discredited, but this... this gave new light onto the shores of hell.\\
Incubi, of course, take on more attractive forms than this in order to seduce and damn innocent women. This one, when it was alive, took the form of a fifty-year-old man wearing a rather tatty wolf costume in the middle of a convention hall. Naturally, nobody would be alone with him, and he was booted out by the staff.\\
In case this point hasn't been made clear: the forces of hell are not the most intelligent. The Devil Inside is, honestly, the most accurate portrayal of demonic possession we've seen put to film.''

->''He feared as well the devils his grandmother had told him about, and that he might meet one in the rain and in the dark. They were half man, and half lion, and they would call out to passers-by and beg them to help carry a bundle of wood. If the passer-by were foolish enough to stop, the devil would kill him with a pointed stick and devour him. Once such a devil had killed and devoured the inhabitants of a whole village, save for one woman and her son who had run away and hidden in a cave. When the boy grew up, Konyek's grandmother had said, he made bows and arrows, and the arrows he poisoned. One day, the devil saw smoke coming from the fire the boy had lighted, and came to eat him. But the boy was waiting for him, concealed in a tree, and shot the arrows at him. At first the devil thought he had been stung by gadflies, but when he was dying, he gave the boy secret directions how to recover the people of the village he had killed, and all their cattle as well. And in their gratitude, when the villagers came to life again, they elected the boy as chief.''

Okay, Carpentier, you're in Hell and there are demons in Hell. There were things on the red-hot wall that might have been demons if you could have seen them clearly through the fog. There's Geryon, certainly a monster. Of ''course'' Big Juju can make demons.\\
But I hadn't wanted to believe it.\\
Now I was looking at them. They were black-skinned rather than the red I'd expected, and they were uglier than I could have imagined. They were using whips twice as long as themselves. They screamed at the laggards.
