A horde of evil and malicious spirits have taken over the property of noted millionaire Ranford W. Higgins.

"It was as if the entire house was shouting at me to leave" the wealthy playboy noted. "I was afraid for my life. I saw shadows move and, worse, I felt a pounding headache."

The headache remained the next morning, but mysteriously vanished by the end of the day. However, the mysterious spirits were not finished with their diabolical deeds.

Just after dinner, when it grew dark, a thunderstorm suddenly appeared. Then, without warning, the lights mysteriously went out. Higgins searched for an explanation. Higgins recounted his frightful ordeal. "I checked to see if everything was plugged in, but it was! I even went down to the fusebox, but to no avail. The fiends had planned for any contingency!"

During the night, Higgins was repeated awakened by the sounds of howling nearby. The neighbor reported that his dog was unsettled by the spirits all night, keeping him awake through the frightful moments.

Higgins sent for a priest to exorcise the house, but has yet to hear a reply. Dr.X implores someone to help the kindly philanthropist, who has donated to Dr.X several times. "Truly such a good man has been singled out by the Devil himself" Dr.X says. "Only a man of the cloth can extinguish the vile spirits who torment him now."

Higgins has not reported any further activity, though he says the events often happen on weekends, when he returns home from his night out.
