And there, lurking in the #shadows, came a man with coal-red eyes, wielding a knife. Before the lady could scream, a #geist, tattered and worn, fell upon the brute—taking its fill of lifeforce, so sweet.

Scarlet stopped suddenly. What was it Mamó said about haints and crossing a #bridge?

“I’m looking for Crowley’s #Auction.”
“You found it. 'The place to find #demonic delights, for dark stormy nights.' Are you buying or selling?” the proprietor asked, bored—at least until she aimed a pistol full of silver bullets at his face.
