Jedes Jahr an Halloween kommt Satan's Affair zu dir. Wir reisen durchs Land und bieten den Besuchern die gruseligsten Spukhäuser, die aufregendsten Achterbahnen und das leckerste Essen.

Ich verstecke mich im Inneren der Wände und fälle mein Urteil über jene, die nach dem Bösen riechen. Singe Schlaflieder für ihre verdorbenen Seelen. Sobald du auserwählt wurdest, gibt es kein Entrinnen vor meinen Handlangern – sie sorgen stets dafür, dass all meine Gelüste erfüllt werden.
