"I'll swallow your soul!"
— Various Deadites, Evil Dead
"I am going to eat your soul... and SHIT IT OUT, Lesnicky!"
— Jennifer Check, Jennifer's Body
"I drained the soul of a monk once. It tasted like chocolate."
— Richard, Looking for Group
Pit: Stop eating things! It's bad enough that you eat souls!
Hades: But souls are delicious. They're like bacon — they taste good on everything.

He did not know whether in the last few hours the spirit which had spoken to him was really Weston's or whether he had been the victim of a ruse. Indeed, it made little difference. There was, no doubt, a confusion of persons in damnation: what Pantheists falsely hoped of Heaven bad men really received in Hell. They were melted down into their Master, as a lead soldier slips down and loses his shape in the ladle held over the gas ring. The question whether Satan, or one whom Satan has digested, is acting on any given occasion, has in the long run no clear significance.
Cornelius Hickey: Where?
Solomon Tozer: It's got Crozier's group a very scant few miles ahead of it, and ours a very scant few miles behind. It'll find one of us or the other, I have no doubt about it.
Cornelius Hickey: Can we bait it? In their direction?
Solomon Tozer: We should return to the ships. I've seen the charts, Cornelius. We're barely a quarter of the way. We've seen more signs of melt. Mr. Des Voeux sighted birds. If we head back immediately, we can be assured of getting back to Terror and Erebus before they have enough open water to leave. We can keep a loyal crew. We can head away from this place. Away from this devil.
Cornelius Hickey: Well, you finally sound frightened, Solomon.
Solomon Tozer: We don't want to meet this thing again. We can't beat it!
Cornelius Hickey: There's a queer melody for a Marine.
Solomon Tozer: I saw that thing murder Mr. Collins.
Cornelius Hickey: You've told me.
Solomon Tozer: I didn't tell you all. I haven't told anyone all. Do you believe a man has a soul? [Hickey smiles and nods] How have you come to that belief? Have you seen one? I have. I saw Mr. Collins's soul. I know that's what it was, and I watched that creature ingest it. Feed on it. Watched it happen from a few yards away. I'm not mistaken. It breathed that man's soul in. If it's following the Captain's group now, let's take that opportunity and get as many miles between us as we can. Get back to the ships, and be there when the leads open. Not here. Not here.
