 SEASON 2, EPISODE 4 TAILS I LIVE, HEADS YOU DIE A quiet evening at the store is disrupted when Lewis Vendredi begins speaking to While investigating a violent cult of devil worshipers, newsman Tom Hewitt (Bill MacDonald) watches three men exhume the body of Carl Naft (Allen Stewart-Coates), a notorious occultist. He also watches in horror as the leader of the group, Sylvan Winters (Colin Fox), tosses a cursed coin at the cemetery caretaker, which lands heads-up and unleashes a powerful force that kills the man. Following Sylvan and his henchmen to their coven beneath Sylvan's taxidermy shop, Hewitt witnesses an eerie ceremony in which Sylvan puts the tails side of the coin with a satanic symbol on Naft's forehead to resurrect him from the dead. Hewitt overhears Sylvan claim that Naft is the first of three devil worshipers who will be called back from their graves to help him raise the devil himself. It is up to Micki, Ryan and Jack to help Hewitt before it's too late. CAST & CREW RYAN DALLION- JOHN D.
