The Serpent's Tongue / The Grayhaven Maniac

Simone is a girl haunted by the memory of her dead father. When she discovers an ancient necklace, a change comes over the introverted high school girl. The necklace lifts Simone's inhibitions, including her previously repressed sexual feelings. She has been possessed by an ancient demon, a succubus. The monster implores Simone to enact a sex and murder ritual that will bring her father back to life. What Simone does not realize, however, is that this ritual will require her to kill her best friend...and bring about the end of days on Earth.
