Ep.348 – A New Beginning: Demon Princess of Hell Arrives

Ep.348 – A New Beginning: Demon Princess of Hell Arrives

Welcome to Weekly Spooky, the horror podcast that brings you chilling scary stories, supernatural encounters, and dark urban legends every week!

In this terrifying new tale, bestselling horror author Rob Fields takes us deep into the haunted town of Strickfield. When Lucibella Taibon, Elder Princess of Hell, crosses through Ravenhenge into the mortal world, the summer heat feels like Heaven compared to the firestorm she carries inside. Her mission: protect Eileen Donnerly from a brutal revenge plot that threatens body, soul, and fate itself.

What follows is a dark urban fantasy thriller of supernatural horror—bullies who discover the true meaning of fear, a muscle car crushed against an immovable force, and a vampire matriarch who restores forbidden memories. Between cheerleader uniforms, hellfire judgment, and time-bending curses, Strickfield becomes the battleground of demons, mortals, and destiny itself.

Perfect for fans of scary podcast stories, supernatural horror fiction, demons and vampires, urban legends, and dark fantasy thrillers. Press play, my spookies—this one burns hot.

1
00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:05.719
Tonight, the elder Princess of Hell herself walks the streets

2
00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:10.919
of Strickfield. Her name is Lucibella, and when she swears

3
00:00:10.960 --> 00:00:15.880
to protect Aileen Donnerly, every bully in town learns that

4
00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:19.679
there are things worse than death and demons with a

5
00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:21.120
score to settle.

6
00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:28.640

8

9
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:50.719
of weak at heart heart listeners in the dark. It's

10
00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:56.479
more fun at that way way. This is Weekly Speaking.

11
00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:09.040

33
00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:40.199
imagine a summer night in Strickfield, a lonely road, a

34
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:44.840
girl in a fiery red dress and eyes that glow

35
00:02:45.039 --> 00:02:51.680
with green fire. She's no ordinary stranger, She's the elder

36
00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:56.319
Princess of Hell. When she promises to protect an innocent

37
00:02:56.400 --> 00:03:00.560
girl from a pack of bullies, the line between nightmare

38
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:06.080
and reality is burned away when Hell itself walks among us.

39
00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:10.680
Who decides what is justice and what is torment? We

40
00:03:10.759 --> 00:03:22.840
find out after this a New Beginning by Rob Fields.

41
00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:31.280
I have been walking along this road in the heat

42
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:37.719
for hours. Soon I shall reach the village known as Strickfield.

43
00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:44.039
To someone like me, this heat feels like heaven. I

44
00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:47.680
smile at, knowing that this could not have been a

45
00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:52.879
better time to have left Ravenhenge. Within a few weeks,

46
00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:57.879
it shall be summer. I am observant of the glances

47
00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:01.680
that I receive from the mortals passing along in their

48
00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:06.800
metal chariots. I suppose that it is uncommon to see

49
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:12.080
a humanoid female walking and wearing a fiery red dress

50
00:04:12.280 --> 00:04:18.399
with matching glass heels. Unfortunately, I could not just appear

51
00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:23.680
at my intended destination and utilized the closest of the

52
00:04:23.720 --> 00:04:29.160
seven gates of Hell, which was in Ravenhenge itself. I

53
00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:34.120
am finally crossing into Strickfield and soon reached the university.

54
00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:39.519
Mother had me learn of this village and surrounding areas.

55
00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:42.720
The dwelling where I must go is on the opposite

56
00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:48.120
end of this institution of higher learning. Many of the

57
00:04:48.240 --> 00:04:54.199
males attending this university look upon me. I sense their lust,

58
00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:59.360
But these foul vermin shall never come to possess me.

59
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:05.519
They are most unworthy of the elder Princess of Hell.

60
00:05:07.079 --> 00:05:11.720
Upon leaving the university grounds. I stop long enough to

61
00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:17.079
close my eyes and moan softly. This heat shall be

62
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:22.560
most enjoyable here in the mortal realm. I am confident

63
00:05:22.639 --> 00:05:27.560
that the summer season shall become even hotter. I have

64
00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:30.720
noticed that many of the mortals that I pass are

65
00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:38.519
wet with their own sweat. Such pathetic weaklings. I continue

66
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:42.560
onward to the dwelling that I must reach. I could

67
00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:47.279
have arrived sooner, but Father was specific that I am

68
00:05:47.360 --> 00:05:51.160
to pass for one of these mortals, and not use

69
00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:59.680
my unlimited power unless I absolutely must. This status shall

70
00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:04.040
change once I have found the one mortal that I seek.

71
00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:12.360
Mother has spoken most highly of Elaine Donnerly during my upbringing.

72
00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:18.240
I look forward to finally meeting this mortal female, who

73
00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:24.040
has earned both Mother's respect and love. She has also

74
00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:29.480
advised me of her older brother. Just thinking about Martin

75
00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:36.639
Donnerly makes me desire to end him most slowly, or

76
00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:42.120
better still, feed him to my hell hounds back home. However,

77
00:06:43.160 --> 00:06:48.759
I am not permitted to harm him without cause. Upon

78
00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:53.639
reaching the Donnerly dwelling, I see a metal chariot stopped

79
00:06:53.959 --> 00:06:58.680
just outside. There are five mortals altogether in the road

80
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:03.920
of them. Appear to have someone surrounded and are beating

81
00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:09.199
on Aileen Donnerly. I call out. The four of them,

82
00:07:09.279 --> 00:07:14.600
cease kicking Aileen and face me. A rather thin, ugly

83
00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:20.439
female glares at me, piss off. The other girl, who

84
00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:24.680
looks poudy, points right at me. Four of us to

85
00:07:24.759 --> 00:07:30.920
one of you. Aileen sees me and reaches out help me.

86
00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:36.160
I move to these vile girls and seize them both

87
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:40.600
to slam their heads together. Once they fall onto the

88
00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:46.000
road that leaves only the males, the muscular one points

89
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:52.079
at me, you just messed up, bad bitch. No you did,

90
00:07:52.800 --> 00:07:57.639
I respond, using mortals speak for the first time in

91
00:07:57.800 --> 00:08:02.560
many years. When the two males come at me, I

92
00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:05.639
grab them by their necks and lift them off the

93
00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:10.519
road effortlessly. I toss the muscular one onto the back

94
00:08:10.600 --> 00:08:15.720
of their metal chariot, making him shatter the window and

95
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:20.120
land in the back seat. Let me go. The other

96
00:08:20.279 --> 00:08:25.720
male groans in fear. I would teach these fools a

97
00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:31.319
lesson they would not soon forget. But Aileen Donnerly needs me.

98
00:08:32.840 --> 00:08:36.919
I turn the male to the two females and toss

99
00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:41.600
him into them with a single hand. After the male

100
00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:46.480
topples the females. He returns to his feet and helps

101
00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:52.399
them to theirs. Let's get out of here, the male yells.

102
00:08:53.000 --> 00:08:58.799
Now the thin, ugly female sees the back window. God

103
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:02.799
damn it, my dad, it's gonna kill me. She turns

104
00:09:02.879 --> 00:09:08.279
and points at me. This ain't over. Then she points

105
00:09:08.360 --> 00:09:11.919
to Aileen, and we damn sure ain't done with you.

106
00:09:13.639 --> 00:09:18.879
I no longer regard them, and now regard Aileen. She

107
00:09:19.039 --> 00:09:22.600
takes my hand and allows me to assist her to

108
00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:29.240
her feet. Are you hurt? I ask? Aileen slowly throws

109
00:09:29.279 --> 00:09:33.519
her arms around me and hugs me tightly. Thank you.

110
00:09:34.759 --> 00:09:41.000
I slowly return her hug. Soon we regard one another again.

111
00:09:42.080 --> 00:09:46.919
Aileen looks me over to sum up my appearance. You

112
00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:50.399
could say that I am a near one for one

113
00:09:50.559 --> 00:09:58.120
doppelganger of my mother, Bella Tabon. The most noticeable difference

114
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:02.120
between the two of us are that I have even

115
00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:08.120
longer blonde hair, which I keep in pigtails that unnaturally

116
00:10:08.200 --> 00:10:13.960
extend and hang out past my shoulders, my radiant green

117
00:10:14.120 --> 00:10:19.679
eyes to her red ones, and my large bosoms. Aileen

118
00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:25.000
regards me strangely, Um, how do you know my name?

119
00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:31.799
I am with patience. My family summoned me here to

120
00:10:32.000 --> 00:10:36.879
find and protect you. I shall only remain with you

121
00:10:37.559 --> 00:10:44.080
if you wish. But who are you and how do

122
00:10:44.120 --> 00:10:51.879
you know me? Aileen stammers. I am Lucibella Tabon. I reveal,

123
00:10:52.840 --> 00:10:58.120
and the history that I shall share with you is complicated.

124
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:02.759
Aileen wipes but from her forehead with the back of

125
00:11:02.840 --> 00:11:09.240
her hand. It's really hot out here. Let's go inside.

126
00:11:09.399 --> 00:11:14.120
I allow her to lead me to her dwelling. Once inside,

127
00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:18.559
I am amazed at how much cooler it is. I

128
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:24.360
have never experienced anything of this sort at Ravenhenge, and

129
00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:30.399
certainly not Hell itself. I would rather have remained outside

130
00:11:30.639 --> 00:11:35.799
in the heat. Nevertheless, I am not threatened, since the

131
00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:37.600
cold cannot harm me.

132
00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:43.159
Don't go away weakly, Spooky will be right back.

133
00:11:47.639 --> 00:11:52.639
After a lean drinks some water. She regards me, would

134
00:11:52.679 --> 00:11:58.120
you like something to drink? Not presently, I answer. We

135
00:11:58.240 --> 00:12:03.559
shall speak when you are ready. Aileen invites me into

136
00:12:03.639 --> 00:12:07.960
her living room. She seats herself in a chair and

137
00:12:08.080 --> 00:12:13.399
I upon the couch. Now we regard one another again.

138
00:12:14.799 --> 00:12:18.039
I tell her the history of what was once her

139
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:24.799
timeline with Bella Tabon, my mother. I explain the events

140
00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:28.840
of what had happened with mother and how Hell Weaver

141
00:12:29.480 --> 00:12:33.000
had deceived her into thinking that she was being offered

142
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:38.679
the second Chance compact. As it turned out, someone close

143
00:12:38.759 --> 00:12:43.559
to Mother would offer herself in exchange for the final

144
00:12:43.639 --> 00:12:50.039
opportunity in the compact. Mother and I both know that

145
00:12:50.120 --> 00:12:56.519
this person was Aileen Donnerly. Mother spoke of Aileen's history

146
00:12:57.200 --> 00:13:00.559
on how she was part of a revenge plot from

147
00:13:00.600 --> 00:13:06.399
those mortals outside. Her older brother, Martin had taken advantage

148
00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:12.039
of that ugly girl, Courtney Rickman, who had become taken

149
00:13:12.120 --> 00:13:17.559
with drink at a gathering. When the alcohol had worn off,

150
00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:24.159
Courtney swore revenge upon Martin after accusing him of violating her.

151
00:13:25.159 --> 00:13:29.720
In the former time line, those mortals had come to

152
00:13:29.799 --> 00:13:35.759
this dwelling to seek vengeance upon Martin. He was not here, however,

153
00:13:36.679 --> 00:13:41.960
but Aileen was. Courtney had her elder brother with her,

154
00:13:42.679 --> 00:13:49.919
and Biff Rickman both assaulted and violated Aileen. She became

155
00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:55.440
infected with a disease that easily manifested itself within her

156
00:13:55.480 --> 00:14:01.360
body due to her weak immune system. Aileen finds this

157
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:05.919
difficult to believe, but Mother said that I must speak

158
00:14:06.039 --> 00:14:10.600
the truth. These events have not happened in this new

159
00:14:10.799 --> 00:14:15.480
time line as of yet. Mother was explicit that I

160
00:14:15.759 --> 00:14:20.000
not allow you to be assaulted and violated in the

161
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:25.679
way that I have described. Make no mistake, they shall

162
00:14:25.799 --> 00:14:31.519
return here tomorrow night. As I have spoken, I raise

163
00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:36.399
my finger. I am to remain at your side until

164
00:14:36.440 --> 00:14:41.000
tomorrow night has passed. From there. If you wish for

165
00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:47.080
me to depart, then I shall without question. Otherwise I

166
00:14:47.159 --> 00:14:52.960
shall bring you before my great grandmother. Aileen points to me.

167
00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:56.720
So you knew what was happening to me out there,

168
00:14:57.600 --> 00:15:00.799
You knew to be there to help me, I did.

169
00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:06.960
I admit. Great Grams lives here in Strickfield and has

170
00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:11.759
powerful magics to be able to see across space and time,

171
00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:15.519
which was why she insisted that I could waste no

172
00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:20.559
time in coming here to you. Mother would have come

173
00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:24.879
for you herself, but she is currently undertaking a quest.

174
00:15:25.879 --> 00:15:31.519
She shall return upon completion of that quest. I raise

175
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:36.200
my finger. If you doubt me, then I shall offer

176
00:15:36.279 --> 00:15:41.440
you proof. Your brother shall return home within the next

177
00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:47.759
ten of your minutes. Eileen shakes her head. Martin said

178
00:15:48.279 --> 00:15:52.639
he'll be working at Mere and Automotive until eleven thirty tonight.

179
00:15:53.840 --> 00:16:01.120
He shall return home within ten minutes, I insist. Aileen

180
00:16:01.360 --> 00:16:05.639
sighs and asks me how I could easily handle Courtney

181
00:16:05.720 --> 00:16:10.759
Rickman and her friends. I am not of your world,

182
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:16.679
Aileen Donnerly, I answer, though I must call the mortal

183
00:16:16.799 --> 00:16:23.159
realm my home now. My birth realm is Hell. Aileen

184
00:16:23.360 --> 00:16:27.200
seems frightened of me now, but does not order me

185
00:16:27.440 --> 00:16:32.159
to depart. I am here for you. I remind her

186
00:16:32.879 --> 00:16:38.759
whatever you may require of me. Aileen studies me more.

187
00:16:40.159 --> 00:16:45.360
Why didn't Bella come herself? She shall come to you,

188
00:16:46.120 --> 00:16:51.399
I assure her. While she currently resides here in Strickfield

189
00:16:51.440 --> 00:16:58.000
with great Grams, she also rules Hell at father's side. Again,

190
00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:02.879
she is undertaking a quest, which is why my family

191
00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:09.680
in Strickfield summoned me. The choice is yours. Once tomorrow's

192
00:17:09.759 --> 00:17:13.400
danger has passed, you may keep me here at your side,

193
00:17:13.599 --> 00:17:20.720
or send me back to Hell. Aileen remembers you said

194
00:17:20.759 --> 00:17:26.160
you would do whatever I asked. Yes, my unlimited power

195
00:17:26.480 --> 00:17:30.319
is yours to command. Whatever you may ask of me,

196
00:17:31.160 --> 00:17:35.440
it shall be done. Mother wishes for you to be

197
00:17:35.599 --> 00:17:40.440
my guide here in the mortal realm. She said that

198
00:17:40.519 --> 00:17:46.319
you could be trusted to keep me honest. Just then

199
00:17:46.839 --> 00:17:52.200
the back door opens, Martin Donnerly enters and regards the

200
00:17:52.279 --> 00:17:57.880
two of us. The fool's eyes open wide upon beholding me.

201
00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:04.559
Can I help you? His eyes move from my face

202
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:10.839
to my bosoms repeatedly. His emotions convey his longing for

203
00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:15.559
me to become the latest in his string of wars.

204
00:18:16.519 --> 00:18:20.039
I am enraged and stand to engage him as he

205
00:18:20.079 --> 00:18:25.319
approaches me. Upon his reaching, I snatch his throat and

206
00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:29.640
slam him against a nearby wall. Dare to lay your

207
00:18:29.680 --> 00:18:35.680
hands upon me, mortal vermin, and I shall no. Aileen

208
00:18:35.839 --> 00:18:39.680
cries as she takes hold of my free hand. When

209
00:18:39.720 --> 00:18:46.039
I regard her, she explains herself, Please, Lusabella, don't hurt Martin.

210
00:18:46.720 --> 00:18:50.920
I can't stand him, but he's the only family I have.

211
00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:57.400
I release Martin. Your sister still cares for you to

212
00:18:57.480 --> 00:19:03.519
a degree. This is why you yet live. Never attempt

213
00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:08.839
to lay hold of me again. Martin regards Aileen as

214
00:19:08.880 --> 00:19:14.799
she explains who I am and why I am here. Now,

215
00:19:14.839 --> 00:19:20.160
he displays a more dominant expression. I don't care what

216
00:19:20.279 --> 00:19:26.079
this little snippet says. You're not staying here. Aileen tightens

217
00:19:26.119 --> 00:19:31.599
her fists, but she will Martin. Lusabella's here for me.

218
00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:37.640
She tells him about those mortals who attacked her prior

219
00:19:37.720 --> 00:19:44.559
to my arrival. You and your male kind are indeed fools, Martin,

220
00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:50.920
I add, you only think with your loins, never your brain.

221
00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:57.119
Was Courtney Rickman's flesh worth those fools attacking your sister.

222
00:19:58.200 --> 00:20:01.960
Martin points to me, don't you talk to me like that.

223
00:20:03.839 --> 00:20:07.799
You're not safe yet, weekly Spooky will be right back.

224
00:20:11.640 --> 00:20:16.960
Aileen becomes upset. She's right, Martin, I know you've hated

225
00:20:17.039 --> 00:20:19.839
taking care of me after mom and Dad were killed.

226
00:20:20.759 --> 00:20:24.839
I never cared who you were with sexually or whatever,

227
00:20:25.599 --> 00:20:29.559
but seriously, you took full advantage of Courtney Rickman when

228
00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:32.440
she was drunk off her ass, and I've got to

229
00:20:32.480 --> 00:20:37.160
pay for it. I move in between them. It matters

230
00:20:37.200 --> 00:20:41.240
not Aileen. What matters is that I am here now,

231
00:20:41.599 --> 00:20:47.000
and no harm shall come to you again. My infinite

232
00:20:47.119 --> 00:20:53.680
power is yours to command. Aileen addresses Martin again, I've

233
00:20:53.759 --> 00:20:57.599
tried to play the loving sister and be there for you,

234
00:20:57.680 --> 00:21:00.799
but I won't pay the price be because you just

235
00:21:00.960 --> 00:21:05.559
can't keep it in your pants. She regards me. Now,

236
00:21:06.480 --> 00:21:09.599
let's go upstairs. I want you to come to school

237
00:21:09.640 --> 00:21:15.559
with me tomorrow as you wish. I return. I accompany

238
00:21:15.640 --> 00:21:19.440
Aileen to her bedchamber, where she motions for me to

239
00:21:19.519 --> 00:21:23.119
sit upon a chair at her desk. Once she is

240
00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:28.319
seated upon her bed, we converse. Aileen wishes for me

241
00:21:28.440 --> 00:21:34.319
to continue accompanying her until the threat has ended. Mortal

242
00:21:34.519 --> 00:21:40.160
vermin like Martin is one among multiple reasons why I

243
00:21:40.240 --> 00:21:50.079
bear such hatred for males. The next morning, I enter

244
00:21:50.200 --> 00:21:54.920
Strickfield High School with Aileen. She could only educate me

245
00:21:55.039 --> 00:21:59.160
in so many details about being a high school student.

246
00:22:00.119 --> 00:22:03.000
Of course, I could not wear the outfit that I

247
00:22:03.119 --> 00:22:07.759
wore to the mortal realm. Aileen has provided me with

248
00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:13.119
one of her cheerleading uniforms. Because of my large bosoms,

249
00:22:13.559 --> 00:22:19.559
the jersey causes my middrift to become fully exposed, assuring

250
00:22:19.880 --> 00:22:26.039
much distraction to foolish males. Aileen brings me into the

251
00:22:26.079 --> 00:22:30.880
school leader's office, where I am to stand before Matthew

252
00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:36.079
van dest The school leader regards Aileen as he points

253
00:22:36.160 --> 00:22:41.079
to me. Last time I checked, miss Donnerly, this girl

254
00:22:41.240 --> 00:22:45.319
is not on the cheerleading squad. Now he regards me,

255
00:22:46.440 --> 00:22:50.839
You're not even a student here, so remove that cheerleading

256
00:22:50.920 --> 00:22:56.000
uniform and put some other clothes on. Normally, I would

257
00:22:56.039 --> 00:22:58.839
have enslaved him in hell for the way he has

258
00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:04.920
spoken to me. However, he knows not who I truly am,

259
00:23:06.000 --> 00:23:11.640
so I shall overlook this and resort to mischief. I

260
00:23:11.720 --> 00:23:17.799
give him a wicked smile, as you command, Matthew. The

261
00:23:17.880 --> 00:23:21.880
school leader gasps when I remove the top and throw

262
00:23:22.000 --> 00:23:26.799
it away. The other females working with him either gasp

263
00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:31.440
or speak of their God. I am ready to remove

264
00:23:31.519 --> 00:23:36.240
the skirt, when Aileen is quick to stop me. No, Lucy,

265
00:23:36.920 --> 00:23:42.640
she shrieks, cover those up quick. I obey Aileen and

266
00:23:42.799 --> 00:23:47.400
cover my bosoms with my hands. I allow these fools

267
00:23:47.400 --> 00:23:51.519
to behold them again. As I accept the top from

268
00:23:51.599 --> 00:23:56.240
Aileen and reapply it, the school leader gives me an

269
00:23:56.319 --> 00:24:02.640
expression that says he wishes to expel me. Instead, he

270
00:24:02.759 --> 00:24:08.440
groans and moves to gather papers. I would require Aileen's

271
00:24:08.440 --> 00:24:14.759
assistance in writing the needed information upon the papers. Fortunately,

272
00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:18.839
I listened to mother when she insisted that I learn

273
00:24:19.039 --> 00:24:25.640
mortal speak, speech, reading, and writing. To my irony, Matthew

274
00:24:25.720 --> 00:24:29.920
Van Deste has accepted me as a new student at

275
00:24:29.960 --> 00:24:36.039
Strickfield High School in spite of my blatant mischief. Lucy,

276
00:24:36.599 --> 00:24:41.079
why did you do that? Aileen demands upon us leaving

277
00:24:41.119 --> 00:24:45.400
the office. Did you not inform me in your bed

278
00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:52.599
chamber that your school leader greatly regards these mortal female's bosoms.

279
00:24:53.359 --> 00:24:59.119
I respond, Aileen sighs. You really don't know how things

280
00:24:59.160 --> 00:25:04.400
work here, do you. I do understand the structures here

281
00:25:04.440 --> 00:25:10.279
in Strickfield, as well as surrounding cities and villages. I

282
00:25:10.319 --> 00:25:13.799
have not existed in the mortal realm long enough to

283
00:25:14.000 --> 00:25:20.920
know its ways. Have I dishonored you? Aileen sighs again,

284
00:25:21.720 --> 00:25:26.160
then smiles a little. I don't think the office staff

285
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:31.640
was expecting what you did. I mean, Van Deste did

286
00:25:31.880 --> 00:25:36.839
enroll you. She puts her hand upon my shoulder. It'll

287
00:25:36.839 --> 00:25:40.000
be okay, Lucy when we get to class. Let me

288
00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:44.680
do the talking at least for now. I stop her

289
00:25:45.079 --> 00:25:51.720
and raise an eyebrow. Lucy, m I can call you Lucibella.

290
00:25:52.440 --> 00:25:57.240
She corrects herself. It was just easier to call you Lucy.

291
00:25:58.319 --> 00:26:03.279
We regard each other for brief time, then I nod once.

292
00:26:04.240 --> 00:26:08.720
You may call me Lucy. As we walk the hallways,

293
00:26:09.119 --> 00:26:14.279
many males regard me with lust. I can feel that

294
00:26:14.359 --> 00:26:18.960
they wish to lie with me. These underlings shall most

295
00:26:19.000 --> 00:26:24.960
certainly die trying at lunch period. Aileen would later ask

296
00:26:25.079 --> 00:26:30.119
me about my hatred for males, My father being The

297
00:26:30.160 --> 00:26:36.160
One exception here is that history. Mother once brought me

298
00:26:36.440 --> 00:26:40.640
into the mortal realm herself. I told my parents that

299
00:26:40.720 --> 00:26:44.640
I desired to remain in Hell and did not wish

300
00:26:44.759 --> 00:26:49.960
to intermingle with mortals. Mother insisted that I would have

301
00:26:50.119 --> 00:26:54.400
to enter the mortal realm eventually, especially if I was

302
00:26:54.440 --> 00:26:59.759
to become a ruler of Hell. One day, Father took

303
00:26:59.799 --> 00:27:04.200
her side and suggested that Mother bring me here at once.

304
00:27:05.000 --> 00:27:08.839
I trusted Mother, and I listened to her lessons there.

305
00:27:09.680 --> 00:27:12.960
In truth, I am certain that I shall come to

306
00:27:13.039 --> 00:27:18.920
appreciate the mortal realm in regards to its beauty and wonders.

307
00:27:19.640 --> 00:27:24.319
As for its people, there leaves much to be desired.

308
00:27:25.680 --> 00:27:29.599
Mother and I were walking across a college campus in

309
00:27:29.680 --> 00:27:34.200
the magnificent Shore City. After Mother had shown me the

310
00:27:34.319 --> 00:27:38.160
view of the top of the tallest building there, we

311
00:27:38.319 --> 00:27:44.440
returned to the concrete surface and continued our journey. In time,

312
00:27:45.119 --> 00:27:49.559
we heard a mortal crying for help. Mother and I

313
00:27:49.720 --> 00:27:56.559
investigated and regarded four mortal males college boys looking to

314
00:27:56.680 --> 00:28:02.359
overpower a single female for the purpose of forcing sex

315
00:28:02.440 --> 00:28:07.400
from her. Since she would not concede it, she would

316
00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:09.160
be violated.

317
00:28:11.000 --> 00:28:15.119
Did you hear that better? Check the locks on your doors. Weakly,

318
00:28:15.240 --> 00:28:17.039
Spooky will be right back.

319
00:28:19.160 --> 00:28:23.160
If there was one thing that truly angered Father, it

320
00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:26.559
was when mortal males felt that they needed to make

321
00:28:26.599 --> 00:28:32.480
sure their female counterparts knew their place here. As far

322
00:28:32.559 --> 00:28:37.119
as males were concerned, females were never to have wills

323
00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:41.839
of their own. Father told me that females were created

324
00:28:42.200 --> 00:28:46.279
to be at the sides of males and not subservient

325
00:28:46.400 --> 00:28:50.079
to them. I think this was one of the many

326
00:28:50.200 --> 00:28:56.079
reasons why Mother ultimately came to love Father. He regarded

327
00:28:56.119 --> 00:29:01.079
her as his equal, his queen, but very few mortal

328
00:29:01.160 --> 00:29:07.359
males would ever regard females as such. Because of Father's teachings,

329
00:29:07.720 --> 00:29:12.839
I became disgusted with the concept of rape. Mother attempted

330
00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:16.880
to stop me, but I was too enraged to hear her,

331
00:29:17.559 --> 00:29:22.759
and unknowingly backhanded her. She flew into a nearby wall

332
00:29:23.480 --> 00:29:28.000
and was dazed. In my rage, I would ultimately break

333
00:29:28.079 --> 00:29:34.240
and tear those males apart, killing them. I relished being

334
00:29:34.359 --> 00:29:38.759
soaked in their blood. When I was finished, the female

335
00:29:38.759 --> 00:29:42.799
that I had saved was most frightened and felt that

336
00:29:42.960 --> 00:29:49.119
I would also destroy her. Mother had revived and came

337
00:29:49.200 --> 00:29:53.240
in between us. She had used her glam to make

338
00:29:53.279 --> 00:29:58.480
the girl forget Ever. Seeing what I had done, Mother

339
00:29:58.640 --> 00:30:02.799
brought me back to Hell and explain to Father about

340
00:30:02.839 --> 00:30:08.359
what I had done. Father did not approve and ruled

341
00:30:08.400 --> 00:30:12.519
that I would never return to the mortal realm again.

342
00:30:14.440 --> 00:30:18.519
Mother would have her say, however, and proposed a counter

343
00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:22.400
offer to allow me to be able to return to

344
00:30:22.480 --> 00:30:29.400
the mortal realm with certain conditions. Father reconsidered his ruling

345
00:30:29.839 --> 00:30:34.400
and specifically stated that I was never again to kill

346
00:30:34.599 --> 00:30:39.000
any living beings in the mortal realm unless it was

347
00:30:39.079 --> 00:30:45.640
a matter of dire importance. That day would come when

348
00:30:45.759 --> 00:30:50.200
Father explained why Mother required me to return to the

349
00:30:50.240 --> 00:30:55.359
mortal realm, I would obey and leave Hell to seek

350
00:30:55.400 --> 00:31:01.039
out a lean Donnerly to this day, my hatred for

351
00:31:01.200 --> 00:31:06.599
mortal males has never diminished. I shall never become bound

352
00:31:06.640 --> 00:31:11.759
by marriage, or become subservient to a mortal male, nor

353
00:31:11.960 --> 00:31:17.319
surrender my body or my heart. Mortal males may look

354
00:31:17.400 --> 00:31:22.039
upon me, but they shall never possess the Elder Princess

355
00:31:22.359 --> 00:31:32.240
of Hell. That evening, a Leen and I are returning

356
00:31:32.319 --> 00:31:37.960
home from cheerleading practice. The boys basketball team would have

357
00:31:38.000 --> 00:31:41.559
a game the next day, and we would be required

358
00:31:41.880 --> 00:31:45.319
to cheer for them. How did I come to be

359
00:31:45.400 --> 00:31:49.640
a member of this squad? After that incident in the

360
00:31:49.680 --> 00:31:54.640
principal's office, Matthew Vandese turned me over to Sondra Temple,

361
00:31:55.279 --> 00:31:59.160
who was also in the office. This woman informed me

362
00:31:59.279 --> 00:32:02.920
that there was an opening on the cheerleading squad and

363
00:32:03.039 --> 00:32:07.240
offered it to me. You've certainly got a unique look

364
00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:11.960
to you, Temple had complimented. Whether or not you remain

365
00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:15.480
on the squad will depend on how fast you can adapt.

366
00:32:16.400 --> 00:32:22.799
I laughed scornfully at her. Oh I shall adapt. I

367
00:32:22.880 --> 00:32:26.440
believe that I have secured my position on the squad

368
00:32:26.519 --> 00:32:32.039
with how easily I have adapted to the cheerleader's configurations,

369
00:32:32.079 --> 00:32:37.240
including their pyramid. I believe that Sondra Temple was most

370
00:32:37.279 --> 00:32:41.119
impressed because she has not released me from the squad

371
00:32:41.359 --> 00:32:45.160
as of yet. Speaking of the squad, I have been

372
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:49.519
an Aileen Donnerly's company for a day's time, and I

373
00:32:49.559 --> 00:32:53.039
have already come to care about her a great deal.

374
00:32:54.160 --> 00:32:58.200
I feel that our bond shall strengthen further with time.

375
00:32:59.359 --> 00:33:03.160
As we turn on to the street where Aileen's dwelling is,

376
00:33:03.759 --> 00:33:08.039
I sense a metal chariot coming at us most swiftly.

377
00:33:09.039 --> 00:33:12.359
I glance over my shoulder and see that it is

378
00:33:12.519 --> 00:33:18.119
the same metal chariot from the day before. Those mortals

379
00:33:18.200 --> 00:33:22.519
kept their distance during school and have waited until now

380
00:33:23.000 --> 00:33:28.240
to return, as I had foretold to Aileen the day

381
00:33:28.279 --> 00:33:35.359
before Lucy. Aileen shrieks upon seeing that metal chariot will

382
00:33:35.400 --> 00:33:41.039
easily strike us. Mother and father entrusted me to protect

383
00:33:41.079 --> 00:33:46.119
Aileen Donnerly, I shall not fail in my second journey

384
00:33:46.319 --> 00:33:50.720
here in the mortal realm. I seize a leen to

385
00:33:50.839 --> 00:33:55.400
me and stand firm As the metal chariot impacts with

386
00:33:55.480 --> 00:33:59.759
my back. I remain where I stand still, holding a

387
00:33:59.839 --> 00:34:05.240
leen to me. The chariot, however, shall require much attention.

388
00:34:06.319 --> 00:34:09.679
The front has a rounded crescent from the impact with

389
00:34:09.800 --> 00:34:13.599
my back, as though the chariot had collided with a

390
00:34:13.760 --> 00:34:18.360
large tree to become damaged itself, but not harm the

391
00:34:18.440 --> 00:34:22.960
tree in any way. A Leen is most surprised at

392
00:34:23.000 --> 00:34:27.360
what has transpired. I release her and turn my attention

393
00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:33.559
to her enemies, who are now my enemies. The four

394
00:34:33.679 --> 00:34:37.480
mortals are shaken, yet they are not harmed because of

395
00:34:37.559 --> 00:34:43.119
their protective restraints. The four of them exit the damaged chariot.

396
00:34:43.840 --> 00:34:49.000
The driver, Courtney Rickman, points at me you are so dead,

397
00:34:49.760 --> 00:34:55.639
both of you. I laugh with scorn. Make no mistake.

398
00:34:56.039 --> 00:35:01.440
You shall never harm ai Leen Donnerly again. After this day.

399
00:35:02.719 --> 00:35:07.880
I feel Aileen's hands grab one of mine. Don't kill them, Lucy,

400
00:35:09.079 --> 00:35:13.599
I shall not. I promise her mother and father would

401
00:35:13.679 --> 00:35:19.000
be most angry with me again. But now I consider

402
00:35:19.079 --> 00:35:22.840
how Aileen would feel, and I do not wish to

403
00:35:22.960 --> 00:35:29.239
know negativity from her. However, I shall make these mortal

404
00:35:29.360 --> 00:35:34.519
fools understand what it means to incur my wrath. The

405
00:35:34.639 --> 00:35:38.159
foolish children make the mistake of looking into my eyes

406
00:35:38.519 --> 00:35:42.599
as they glow with the brightness of hell fire. To begin,

407
00:35:42.960 --> 00:35:46.519
I take hold of the male known as Jason Stamen

408
00:35:47.159 --> 00:35:51.440
and set him ablaze. Truly, he has never tasted the

409
00:35:51.559 --> 00:35:55.880
very flames of hell. As he feels his body, his

410
00:35:56.199 --> 00:36:01.119
very soul burn at my touch, I release him. He

411
00:36:01.239 --> 00:36:05.360
tries to flee, but the flames shall remain bound to him.

412
00:36:06.519 --> 00:36:13.039
His guilt and sin shall continue to feed the flames indefinitely.

413
00:36:15.079 --> 00:36:19.400
More scarce to come weakly, Spooky will be right back.

414
00:36:22.519 --> 00:36:27.360
I look upon the other male, brad Order, and stare

415
00:36:27.760 --> 00:36:32.440
deep into his eyes. He screams only for a moment

416
00:36:33.239 --> 00:36:37.119
before he realizes that he can no longer do so,

417
00:36:37.760 --> 00:36:42.880
as I command forces that literally grind his very bones

418
00:36:43.280 --> 00:36:49.159
into ashes from within his own flesh, while retaining his

419
00:36:49.320 --> 00:36:55.159
life force. Amanda Dawson turns to flee, but I appear

420
00:36:55.360 --> 00:36:59.519
before her. She shrieks with fright when I take hold

421
00:36:59.519 --> 00:37:03.840
of her. Now she moans in anguish when she feels

422
00:37:03.880 --> 00:37:08.000
herself growing old, to the point where she is so

423
00:37:08.320 --> 00:37:12.320
frail that a mere burst of a simple wind would

424
00:37:12.320 --> 00:37:16.639
cause her to fall over. Her fate shall be that

425
00:37:16.760 --> 00:37:22.239
her young soul be forever imprisoned within her frail body

426
00:37:23.079 --> 00:37:29.559
as her living tomb. Finally, I turn my attention to

427
00:37:29.719 --> 00:37:35.320
Courtney Rickman. She has such fear and anguish upon her face.

428
00:37:35.719 --> 00:37:40.280
After seeing what I have done to her friends, she

429
00:37:40.400 --> 00:37:45.920
now begs the elder Princess of Hell for her very life.

430
00:37:46.239 --> 00:37:51.840
I am with amusement and laugh scornfully once more as

431
00:37:51.880 --> 00:37:56.719
I behold her. You sought to end the life of

432
00:37:56.800 --> 00:38:01.320
Aileen Donnerly, I point to her, Were you not the

433
00:38:01.440 --> 00:38:06.599
one who became taken with drink? Why do you mortals

434
00:38:06.639 --> 00:38:12.360
always push the blame on to others. Aileen did nothing

435
00:38:12.480 --> 00:38:16.239
to you, Yet you would harm Aileen simply to harm

436
00:38:16.280 --> 00:38:21.239
the man that took advantage of you. You attack Martin

437
00:38:21.320 --> 00:38:25.599
Donnery's younger sister out of cowardice, as you sought to

438
00:38:25.679 --> 00:38:30.079
do the day before. Now you shall face punishment for

439
00:38:30.199 --> 00:38:34.719
your actions. Since you seem to enjoy the pleasures of

440
00:38:34.760 --> 00:38:39.440
the flesh so much, I shall turn your own against you.

441
00:38:40.400 --> 00:38:45.719
When Courtney gazes into my eyes, her body becomes afflicted

442
00:38:45.840 --> 00:38:50.239
with the very disease that Aileen had become infected with

443
00:38:50.920 --> 00:38:56.079
in mother's former time line, on a much more advanced level.

444
00:38:57.239 --> 00:39:01.800
Courtney falls to her side with sweat, dark bruises, and

445
00:39:02.000 --> 00:39:11.199
large boils from her fever. She raises her arm to me, Please,

446
00:39:12.480 --> 00:39:16.719
I ignore her, please, and say to the fools, this

447
00:39:17.880 --> 00:39:22.760
is my final judgment. I stand and watch as their

448
00:39:22.800 --> 00:39:27.559
souls writhe in what would become their eternal torment. But

449
00:39:27.760 --> 00:39:33.360
remember I am forbidden to claim the lives of mortals

450
00:39:33.840 --> 00:39:38.559
unless I should be presented with no other alternative. The

451
00:39:38.679 --> 00:39:43.280
fools are suddenly released from their trances when they gaze

452
00:39:43.360 --> 00:39:47.719
into my eyes. I merely planted my realities for them

453
00:39:48.280 --> 00:39:52.480
within their own minds. Think of it as a greatly

454
00:39:52.599 --> 00:39:59.239
enhanced form of your technology known as virtual reality. The

455
00:39:59.360 --> 00:40:03.480
fools literally experienced the fates that I would have granted

456
00:40:03.519 --> 00:40:09.039
them if I were without restraint, complete with the feelings

457
00:40:09.079 --> 00:40:15.400
of those experiences. However, I never harmed them in any way.

458
00:40:16.559 --> 00:40:21.239
Let's get out of here. Courtney screams in terror. I

459
00:40:21.360 --> 00:40:25.280
laugh when they flee for their lives. If I truly

460
00:40:25.360 --> 00:40:30.039
wish to find them, it will not be difficult. After all,

461
00:40:30.559 --> 00:40:34.440
how would you even escape from the elder princess of

462
00:40:34.519 --> 00:40:41.760
Hell herself? Aileen approaches me, Lucy, what about their car?

463
00:40:42.840 --> 00:40:48.440
I give her a gentle smile. Observe. I place my

464
00:40:48.679 --> 00:40:52.800
hands upon the car as I now understand it to

465
00:40:52.880 --> 00:40:58.000
be named, and restore it to as it was, including

466
00:40:58.079 --> 00:41:02.559
the back window that was shattered the day before. The

467
00:41:02.679 --> 00:41:07.039
four mortal children shall be believed for fools should they

468
00:41:07.119 --> 00:41:11.920
speak of the events that they believe they have experienced

469
00:41:12.880 --> 00:41:18.000
with all as it was. I turn to Aileen. We

470
00:41:18.119 --> 00:41:23.440
shall go another way. Great Grams wishes to speak to you.

471
00:41:24.719 --> 00:41:28.920
Aileen trusts in me enough to accompany me to the

472
00:41:29.000 --> 00:41:33.760
dwelling where Great Grahams and Mother reside. When the two

473
00:41:33.800 --> 00:41:38.079
of us are before the front door, it opens to

474
00:41:38.159 --> 00:41:45.760
reveal Anathea Tabon. Great Grams has many years, but her

475
00:41:45.800 --> 00:41:51.559
appearance is that of a mortal woman of thirty, the

476
00:41:51.599 --> 00:41:57.679
elder matriarch of the Tabon family is a vampire. After

477
00:41:57.800 --> 00:42:02.360
being invited inside, Great Grams and I embrace one another.

478
00:42:03.159 --> 00:42:09.480
Then she regards me, thank you for bringing Aileen Donnerly, Lusabella.

479
00:42:10.360 --> 00:42:15.760
Now she turns to face my friend. I suspect you

480
00:42:16.000 --> 00:42:21.960
want answers. Aileen sighs. I just don't understand why I'm

481
00:42:22.480 --> 00:42:27.400
suddenly being protected by Lucy. She explains the events from

482
00:42:27.440 --> 00:42:32.079
the day before when I first came upon her. You

483
00:42:32.159 --> 00:42:38.119
shall have your answers, child, Great Grams promises. Aileen listens

484
00:42:38.280 --> 00:42:43.320
as Great Grahams speaks in our native Tabon language. When

485
00:42:43.360 --> 00:42:48.639
she finishes, she caresses the side of Aileen's temple before

486
00:42:48.719 --> 00:42:55.599
finishing with our word for remember. Aileen gasps and looks

487
00:42:55.639 --> 00:43:02.320
around quickly. What I storede your memories from Bella's former

488
00:43:02.440 --> 00:43:07.320
timeline prior to her accepting the second Chance compact. Great

489
00:43:07.400 --> 00:43:16.639
Grams informs her remember Aileen Donnerly. Aileen regards me, now, wow,

490
00:43:17.760 --> 00:43:21.199
I know you're not Bell's, but you look so much

491
00:43:21.400 --> 00:43:28.119
like her. Lucy. Then she is saddened, I really screwed

492
00:43:28.159 --> 00:43:35.519
things up. Great Grams gives Aileen her grandmotherly smile. Perhaps

493
00:43:35.519 --> 00:43:39.559
it is we who should be thanking you, Aileen, though

494
00:43:39.559 --> 00:43:42.760
we know why you bargained with hell Weaver. I have

495
00:43:42.880 --> 00:43:46.400
seen all in my mediums and know you did it

496
00:43:47.000 --> 00:43:51.840
for my granddaughter. Between you and Bella, your actions are

497
00:43:51.840 --> 00:43:55.960
the reason the Tabon family continues to live and grow.

498
00:43:57.280 --> 00:44:01.119
The only downside is that there were likely negative effects

499
00:44:01.159 --> 00:44:05.960
resulting from Bella's rewriting her history and you attempting to

500
00:44:06.000 --> 00:44:09.800
rewrite yours to save her. But as for my great

501
00:44:09.800 --> 00:44:14.880
granddaughter here and myself, we exist now and must accept

502
00:44:15.039 --> 00:44:18.639
that we do. I fold my arms in front of me.

503
00:44:19.679 --> 00:44:24.320
You speak as if we are accursed. Great Grams. I

504
00:44:24.400 --> 00:44:29.519
originally died a long time ago, Lucy, Bella and you

505
00:44:29.639 --> 00:44:33.760
and your siblings never existed before Hell Weaver was able

506
00:44:33.800 --> 00:44:39.760
to escape perdition. She puts her hand on my forearm. Nevertheless,

507
00:44:40.239 --> 00:44:43.239
we must do what we can to prevent hell Weaver

508
00:44:43.320 --> 00:44:48.199
from conquering the multiverse, and it shall take as many

509
00:44:48.320 --> 00:44:52.159
allies as we can gather to even have the slightest

510
00:44:52.239 --> 00:44:57.719
chance of stopping her. I want to help, too, Aileen offers.

511
00:44:58.920 --> 00:45:03.960
I watch as Great Grams uses her magics to examine Aileen,

512
00:45:04.880 --> 00:45:08.239
you no longer carry the disease which threatened your life

513
00:45:08.280 --> 00:45:13.159
in your former timeline. However, you still remain altered as

514
00:45:13.199 --> 00:45:16.519
a result of that vampire bite you sustained from an

515
00:45:16.559 --> 00:45:22.159
alternate universe. Aileen is with optimism. Now, then, I don't

516
00:45:22.280 --> 00:45:26.079
have to stay with Martin anymore. I can go my

517
00:45:26.159 --> 00:45:30.760
own way. I have plenty of room here, Great Grams

518
00:45:30.800 --> 00:45:35.159
informs us. In fact, both of you shall reside here.

519
00:45:35.760 --> 00:45:39.199
We can determine our next course of action. While Bella

520
00:45:39.360 --> 00:45:43.960
is away on her quest. I unfold my arms. As

521
00:45:44.039 --> 00:45:48.400
Aileen and I behold one another. It would seem that

522
00:45:48.480 --> 00:45:52.920
you and I shall become even closer. Now, I say,

523
00:45:54.400 --> 00:45:59.000
Aileen and I embrace as true friends. I suppose that

524
00:45:59.119 --> 00:46:03.199
Great Grams is correct. We would not exist in this

525
00:46:03.400 --> 00:46:08.599
time or at all, had time itself not been altered.

526
00:46:09.440 --> 00:46:13.119
In the meantime, it seems that the elder Princess of

527
00:46:13.199 --> 00:46:17.480
Hell must serve as a protector in the vast space

528
00:46:17.559 --> 00:46:21.840
that is the mortal realm. I know that I must

529
00:46:21.880 --> 00:46:26.639
perfect my mortal speak while I reside here. In time,

530
00:46:26.679 --> 00:46:31.679
I shall be able to blend in perfectly among the mortals.

531
00:46:31.719 --> 00:46:36.159
With Aileen Donnerly as my new friend and my guide,

532
00:46:37.119 --> 00:46:39.880
I am feeling that I do not wish to return

533
00:46:40.000 --> 00:46:45.719
to Hell, so soon perhaps I shall learn to appreciate

534
00:46:46.280 --> 00:46:55.880
the mortal realm after all. Well, my spookys, looks like

535
00:46:55.960 --> 00:46:59.800
there's some new action going down in Strickfield, and perhaps

536
00:47:00.000 --> 00:47:04.199
we'll find out more in October when we feature multiple

537
00:47:04.599 --> 00:47:09.360
Strickfield novellas for your listening pleasure. So make sure you're

538
00:47:09.400 --> 00:47:13.199

539
00:47:13.239 --> 00:47:17.239
to miss this October. And also this Friday, I'll be

540
00:47:17.400 --> 00:47:20.559
joined by Rachel Ridolfi to talk about the sci fi

541
00:47:20.840 --> 00:47:25.719
horror classic event Horizon, a film that gave me many,

542
00:47:26.320 --> 00:47:30.000
many nightmares, so check that out on Friday on a

543
00:47:30.000 --> 00:47:33.880
brand new episode of Cutting Deep into Horror right here

544

humongous difference. But now, my friends, I've got to get
