This brief cautionary teaches us what should be obvious: if you summon the Devil, be damn sure you want him to oblige. The “Fort Lauderdale News,” October 9, 1965:
OKLAHOMA CITY. A teenage girl was determined to disappear with the devil last night, but she made it only as far as a hospital.Friends convinced Kathy Campbell, 14, that if she laid on a grave and called 10 times for "Lucifer," she would disappear, or "something would happen to her." So, police said, Miss Campbell and four companions went to a graveyard, where she carefully stretched out on a grave in the darkness and pleaded for Lucifer to appear.
After 10 attempts, Lucifer did not show up. But when the girl got to her feet a large bird swooped down out of the darkness and struck her on the chest.
She was taken to a hospital in a state of shock. She was released a few hours later.
That probably cured her of a lot of bad habits right there.
