"Hell, no! I'm just a wildly overrated news guy with a knack for finding kinky girls in the woods at night. Want to go for a drink at the Warts-And-All?" (Photo by J.M. Hilton)

"You mean to say there's a pub in Woodhenge?" (Photo by J.M. Hilton)

"No, there's a BAR in Woodhenge -- the one in Lincoln Park. Remember, we're dealing with an alternate universe here." (Photo by J.M. Hilton)

"Happy Halloween, Noah, and what do you know? My photoshopped eyes have cleared up!" (Photo by J.M. Hilton)

"While waiting to interview the Devil on the prehistoric site of Woodhenge, along with Lily the Anticanine and Robert Labrador, journalist Sally King-Charles is overcome by sulphur fumes." (Photo by Steph J.)

"Oh, Robert, I feel so...so..." (Photo by J.M. Hilton)

"You feel it, too, Sally: so-so, the way I've felt for years! And suddenly I realize I have to forget about the Unholy Algebra Book, forsake symbology, quit my part-time job at Bonemart -- and devote my life to you!" (Photo by Beth J.)

"And I will give up a semi-promising career in broadcasting to follow you to the ends of the earth, even though it's round." (Photo by J.M. Hilton)

"Well, what am I, chopped rawhide? You two are leaving me alone with the demonic creatures of Woodhenge -- with not a Molosser to lean on -- to face ugly Old Nick on my own?" (Photo by J.M. Hilton)

"Maybe not so ugly...for the Devil hath power to assume a pleasing shape, Lily." (Photo by J.M. Hilton; most of the prose by William Shakespeare~)

"And shapes rarely get more pleasing than what I'm espying now!" (Photo by J.M. Hilton)

Beneath the full Blood Moon of October, Lily shows up at Woodhenge, prepared to meet the Devil...." (Photo by J.M. Hilton)

Lily thinks: "A shame I had to drag Robert Labrador and that overweened Sally King-Charles along, but I'm sure the Devil will understand. Maybe he can turn them into rats, or politicians, or something." (Photo by J.M. Hilton)

Robert Labrador thinks: "At last! The chance of a lifetime! I'll get Satan to tell me the exact location of the Unholy Algebra book, and I'll have more power than any dog on earth. Farewell, Sally and Lily...hello, dog parks of Dubai~" (Photo by Beth J.)

Sally King-Charles thinks: "My Dog! An interview with the Devil! Of course I'd rather marry Robert! But what a ratings boost! Nobody could touch me!" (Photo by J.M. Hilton)

"AHEM. News tip, trio...it's not the night of the full moon! It's the first quarter of the moon, also known as the Cat Moon or Cat Phase. The next full moon's not until November second, and I understand the Devil likes to keep to his schedule." (Photo by Steph J.)

"Then why do I smell sulphur?" (Photo by J.M. Hilton)
