The Legend of Mr. Cairo — C. Dennis Moore

Morghan Stanley thinks today is going to be just another typical day on the job--until he's knocked unconscious. And then he wakes up, bound in a basement, and the beautiful woman beside him tells him she's going to exorcise the demon living inside him. Even if it kills him.Horror author C. Dennis Moore presents an ancient evil that spends the centuries moving from host to host, a creature that specializes in torture and pain.But a secret organization has been tracking him through the years, intent on ending Mr. Cairo's evil once and for all.This theme of possession is continued in the backup story The Prisoner, which provides a twist on the story of THE EXORCIST as filtered through The Twilight Zone via Tales From the Crypt.
