It's been implied that The Demon made a pact with their ancestors who wanted to get rich. Beatrice made a pact with Kinzo so he could get rich. It's been implied that The Demon did it ForTheEvulz. Beatrice also did it ForTheEvulz (most of the time, anyway), making the both of them troll. And of course, you couldn't forget that both series are based around KillThemAll concept!

** And the Daemon answering to Toby is in fact a very specific Daemon - M'kar the Thriceborn; he goes through three forms, uses a cult to construct his form, needs blood sacrifice to manifest, and even still has tricks up his sleeve involving possession. His end game, fittingly, is to let himself be manifested in the Materium.

\n** The Demons from the Marked Ones are Daemons of Tzeentch, as the Possession gives the host psychic powers and changed their forms horrifically. And further supporting this implication is the "Ways" where people can apparently Time Travel to unhallowed locations, such as the House from the first film - in other words, Warp Travel.

* [[spoiler:Partially Confirmed, but it happens in the 6th movie ''The Ghost Dimension''. It is shown that there is an Extermination Ritual that can destroy a demon. The protagonists try it but fail.]]



The witches made their pact with the demon for wealth and power, so it makes sense that it would be a manifestation of greed itself. Greed gives the demon more power, and in modern times, it finds itself particularly empowered by and drawn to the showy luxuries of its targets, such as their hoards of expensive cameras.

Added DiffLines:

[[WMG: The first movie is a metaphor for alcoholism (among other forms of addiction)]]
First off, Micah doesn't acknowledge the severity of the problem and treats it like a game. The fact that it doesn't immediately destroy his relationship with Katie further enables his carelessness, effectively making the demon more active. Micah's will to play with the demon (demonstrated by his renting of a Ouija board after it was made clear earlier in the movie that this would provoke the demon) strongly resembles the beginnings of drunkenness. That is, extreme sense of cockiness enabled by both the substance at work and the belief that "this stuff isn't even phasing me!" Eventually he can't seem to be able to get his way out of this situation he got himself into. It costs him the trust and respect of his girlfriend and ultimately his life.

In number 3, Toby [[spoiler: crawls under Katie's covers, stands over her, lifting the sheets, and then sinks down. Where on her? Slightly below her stomach.

However, tying in with another WMG, her maternal instincts beat out the possessed urge to take him away, and the exorcism forced him to use Katie as his pawn.]]

To be fair though, The demon never really wanted Katie in the first place. He wanted Kristi and her baby, but was put off track due to the maid in 2. The Demon got stuck with her, and maybe he is making the best of it. Then again...maybe he expected all this to happen?



It would link the movies together even more. Maybe Randy would team up with Ali from 2 to investigate the coven.
