Even if it takes an eternity, he will make amends....

Burning Bodies

A crime wave has swept the Los Angeles area, which under normal circumstances would be par for the course. But nothing links these particular victims except the cause of death -- their bodies were burned from the inside out. Obviously supernatural forces are at work.

While Angel investigates the murders, Cordelia tracks down a band of child pickpockets. Surprisingly, both searches lead to the same place: a wealthy slumlord who has all but imprisoned the children's immigrant parents.

And conducts elaborate rituals to Latura, the Indonesian God of the Dead.

Angel, Doyle, and Cordelia may have had a rocky start in L.A., but they realize they've got it much easier than the immigrants. Characteristically, Angel wants to help. But can he free them before the Feast of Latura? And if not, will they become the next sacrifices of someone's quest for immortality?

Love...Hate!

Life, death, love and hate! The stars alone tell the stone cold truth!

We all live a short time here and before you know it it is to late!

Darkness falls and bugs crawl! Soon to have a feast!

Suns up! Skins burning, cover up cover up or you'll be crisp!

Lovers here lovers now sweet hatred it can be!

Is this a world full of people or is all this a sick spoof?

At night you hear the spirits warn you! You hear the world stop and then there before you is the beast.

The Vampire and Holy Symbols

In _The_Dracula_Tape_ by Fred Saberhagen, Count Dracula explains that he is not frightened by religious symbols, but that he has such respect for Christianity (being a Catholic himself, as I recall) that he objects to the profaning of sacred symbols by their use against him. He is physically unharmed.
