The idea and theory that certain humans have been and are "possessed by the devil" is as old as the bible and has persisted down through the ages. It is on this theme that the author has based this interesting treatise set in our own times in any middle class and middle sized city or town in the United States. The place might even be where you yourself live. Can man "sell his soul to the devil?" Will he, if given the opportunity? That is the question raised and discussed so vividly and dramatically in this philosophically penetrating work by the author. Also, if one reads carefully, he might detect rather significant threads of satire interwoven masterfully into the plot. After all, evil is evil, no matter what rationalization we may use to explain its existence. Ergo: the devil may not be the devil, but may be the mind of man himself. Original Title: The Witch's Spell
