“So you collect ghosts?”
“Not intentionally. Ghosts are just drawn to me. I’m a ghost sponge. A ghost magnet. When I’m hired to check out a haunted house, I walk in and take all the ghosts with me when I leave. And if it turns out there’s a demon the ghosts eat ‘em. It’s a very efficient system.”
“…Say that last part again.”
“The ghosts eat the demons. Like a pack of hyenas taking down a wildebeest. I’ve seen the ghost of a 90-year-old Ukrainian babushka tear apart a demon with her teeth.”
“Wouldn’t that be the other way around? I thought demons would be more powerful than ghosts.”
“One ghost, sure. But they’re never prepared to take on fifty ghosts at once. Especially if I bring Olga.”
