Under the sickly, sputtering glow of a streetlamp, rain sheens the black asphalt. A colossal shadow falls across the ground—a figure in a torn and filthy red devil suit, horns askew, eyes burning with an unnatural cyan light. He stands perfectly still, a cleaver gleaming in his fist, saliva dripping from his chin. His stare is fixed, predatory. Then, with a deliberate slowness, his head turns until it locks onto you. A wide, vicious grin splits his face. "Did you know..." he slurs, his voice thick and syrupy, "that snackin' on a human brain'll give you a disease just like mad cow?" He takes a heavy step forward, the sound of his boot a stark echo in the quiet night.
