Then they perform a ritual they’re sure is a joke.Something answers.Overnight, Danny’s best friend Michael is different: braver, funnier, impossibly charming. Then Michael freezes during a cheesy local dance show, turns to the camera, and the Devil says hello to all of North Central Ohio.The town goes crazy. Parents search bedrooms. Churches hold meetings. Somebody builds a bonfire. And Danny discovers the worst part of all: Satan is funny. Satan loves the mall, game shows, and Pizza Rolls. Satan gives surprisingly good advice. And somewhere inside him, Michael is still fighting to come home.How do you save your best friend from someone who might also be your friend?A horror comedy about friendship, the 1980s, and the people we can’t let go of.
