William Schoell
THE EVIL - It was an obscene evil that could not be quenched with blood or sated with the flesh of its defiled victims.THE TERROR - It wormed its way into the human brain, devouring the mind, controlling the body and turning its prey into savage creatures lusting for destruction.THE METAMORPHOSIS - Its only outward sign was the grotesque metamorphosis of its victim’s hand into a gnarled, four-fingered claw -- a claw whose razor-sharp nails dealt death with the precision of a stiletto.THE SEARCH - It was unconquerable in its mindless violence, supreme in its viciousness, and as elusive as a foul wind.Only reporters Dorothy Hunter and James Radley even guessed at its existence. They had to find it before it grew stronger...before it grew hungrier...before it found them.
