"It's a witches totem, used by Satanists in their rituals", Lorraine explained showing the picture of the witchcraft to Debbie who sat in the Warrens household.
"Remember how I told you that an inhuman spirit needs to be invited? And you couldn't imagine how David could do that? Well, you were right, he didn't", Ed says taking a seat.
"We think David was cursed. And on the night of the exorcism, the curse was passed from David into Arne" Lilian stated.
"Cursed? Are you saying someone did this to us... on purpose?", Debbie asked looking at them in disbelief.
"We've heard of satanic rituals like this. The demon is summoned, the possessed individual takes a life and the demon departs", Ed said.
"Which is why Arne was able to read from the Bible afterward", Lilian stated. "We think whoever cursed David used this to draw the demon".
"And... we'd like you to start mailing these out to every police department you can find. Start locally", Ed explained passing out the stack of pictures. "And just find out if they've ever seen anything like this".
"There might be someone else we can ask about this. Do you remember the priest who helped expose the Disciples of the Ram cult?", Father Gordon asked taking the picture from Drew's hands. "It would've been about 10 or 12 years ago- ".
"Father Kastner?" Lilian guessed.
"Yeah, you're right. Only it isn't 'Father' anymore, he's been retired for a while. He tried to help those people. He tried to understand why they did what they did. If anyone is going to be able to tell us what this is, it's him", Father Gordon stated.
"Come on", Ed says getting out of the car. Drew holds Lilian's hand goes behind Ed and Lorraine.
The four walked towards Father Kastner who somehow wasn't aware they were behind him. "Father Kastner?".
"I didn't hear a car drive in", Father Kastner says facing the four. "Would either of you care for an omelet?", he lifted the basket of chicken eggs.
"We had breakfast before we left home", Ed chuckled. "I'm Ed Warren, this is my wife Lorraine together with our daughter Lilian Warren Thomas and her husband Drew Thomas". Ed stretches his arm forward to shake Father Kastner's hand.
"I have chicken shit on my hands", Father Kastner says causing the four to let out a breathy laugh. The five took a sit on Father Kastner's front porch. They watched as he opened the letter containing the picture of the witchcraft.
"Forget you ever saw this", Father Kastner stuttered.
"You've seen it before?", Lorraine asked.
"No. But I've seen ones like it. This is sophisticated. It's a very nasty piece of work", he answered nervously.
"What I don't understand is... is why?", Ed stuttered. "David, the little boy who was possessed, he didn't do anything wrong. Why would someone target this family?".
"Why? The 'Why' is irrelevant. The 'why' is counter to everything that the Satanist stands for. His sole aim is chaos. His nectar is despair", Father Kastner explained.
"But someone had to put it under their house. So, what does this tell you about the person who made it?", Lilian asked.
"Come with me", Father Kastner says standing up.
Father Kastner opened the door of the basement.
"I don't want to go down there." Lilian and said, frightened.
"What is this?" Ed asked as the Father unlocked the door.
Father Kestner looked up at them. "It's the reason you're here." He opened the door and turned on the lights. Drew lays his arm around Lilian to comfort her. Father Kestner put down his hat and went inside, nodding towards the four to go inside.
"I collected these while I was studying the Disciples of the Ram." They went inside. Ed and Drew went in with no problem, but Lorraine and Lilian stayed cautious.
"You should burn all of this." Lilian said as she looked around.
"I've thought of it. But I felt it was safer to keep them locked. I like taking guns off the street." Father Kastner spoke.
"I don't suppose you have all these books organised using the Dewey Demical System, do you?" Ed asked as he motioned the cursed objects with his cane.
"I studied these people for nine years. They worshipped Satan and his demons with blood sacrifice. They defiled holy land with their obscene rituals, and they committed acts of blasphemy... which I shall never speak of. But... these acts gave them power. The trial of the Disciples, the lead prosecutor, his wife was pregnant. A few days after the Disciples were all found guilty, his baby was born six weeks early, with its heart outside of its body." Father Kastner explained as he motioned to his left side of his chest.
"Three months later, his wife committed suicide by laying her neck on a railroad track. A master Satanist is not an adversary to be taken lightly." Ed, Lorraine, Drew and Lilian approached Kastner.
"We know the dangers, better than you might think." Lorraine added.
"This boy, who's headed to the death chamber... is saving him worth everything you have? Because that's what it may very well cost."
