"Got a quick glimpse into the past. Supernatural evils are my specialty, and I have a couple handy abilities to help with that. And . . . this is just a theory so far, but I think I might know what happened. I'm in town - I'm in country, in fact - to investigate a rash of people randomly dropping either comatose or dead with no warning and no explanation. That demon was hunting when it spotted you and your ghost friend. I think it may be behind what's been dropping other people completely. Witnesses have consistently reported seeing some kind of dark entity every time. It's gotta be this thing that attacked you guys. I think it's been pulling people's souls out of them, and with you guys, it saw an even easier-than-normal target." He turns up his hands with a shrug. "I'm not 100% on that, but I'd be willing to bet I'm at least onto something."
