Night of the Fugue Devil


Every seventeen years, on the Autumn Equinox, the Fugue Devil flies out of its extra-dimensional lair to steal souls. It occurs to me that, given the timeline of the stories, TONIGHT is the night of the Fugue Devil.

Just remember...
If you know about the Fugue Devil,
     It knows about you.
If you see the Fugue Devil,
     It will come for you.


Yep, the events in the original novelette take place in 1991, so its next appearance was in 2008, and now, it's that time once again.

Some time ago, I wrote on me blog what amounts to story notes that detail the origin of "Fugue Devil"—a little essay called "The Equinox Devil," which you may find here. And if you're keen on checking out the monster that started it all, just visit the link below. By all means, do sleep well tonight.
