The One Who Devours Souls

Once in the house of, well what WAS a house, there lived a little girl with her father. Her father cut wood out in the woods near her house. He also usually brought her back some berries which he could pick from near the house. Their nearest neighbor was over 10 miles away. But you see, the house was very roomy for just the two of them that lived there. Well the father shared a room with the daughter so he could protect her. Just in case a passerby decided to try to rob them.
Well, let's just say they were definitely the religious type. They were Christian, and had crosses throughout their house. A very large part of their personalities was their religion.
The father actually managed to provide his house with lighting, by the fact that someone generously gave him a portable generator. Yet he didn't have a telephone.
Well, their house wasn't always owned by the religious type of people they were. Before, their basement had been used for occult activity.
One day, when the daughter was outside playing, the father heard a crash in the basement. He immediately went to investigate, and what he saw surprisingly didn't scare him. It was a demon creature, in the shape of a venus fly trap, but larger and blood red. The creature spoke.
"I am the one who devours souls, and you shall be my next victim.".
The man replied. "You are in the house of Christ, foul creature, and you are not welcome here, return to whence you came!"
He held up a cross and the creature looked angry. It spoke once more. "Know this, foolish mortal, you are going against forces greater than what your so-called Christ can save you from. I will leave for now, but know this, I will destroy everything you know and love. Don't let that thought escape your mind. But alas, your soul is weak and means nothing to me, but maybe destroying what you love will be a greater torture."
With that the creature dissapated. The man's daughter returned from outside. Curious as to what the bang was. The man passed it off as something falling from a shelf. Everything was normal... temporarily.
One night, while the father was sleeping, a repetitive banging noise, the equivalant to that of a hammer, was sounding from the basement. It attracted the daughter, who it woke. She slowly crept down the stairs. It then made itself visible to her. It spoke to her "Shhh, don't be afraid of me, I am your friend. Come here and let me embrace you with a love you have never felt before." Then it started to sing in a most angelic beatiful voice. The girl couldn't resist going over to this marvelous creature, who was trying to hide its most malicious intentions. When she got over to it and hugged it, it immediately grabbed her and ripped a hole in her back. It then crawled inside. The only problem was the head didn't fit inside. So the creature now had complete control of the girl.
Then it returned upstairs, waking up the man. It spoke to him with its true voice "Oh foolish mortal, you have let your daughter suffer, and has Christ helped you? You may still be of use to me however, I will provide transportation and you will lure innocent blood to this house for me to devour, disobey and your daughter will be destroyed." And so the man did its bidding, and eventually went insane.
He lured many people there. The creature devoured them all. And so anyone who survived an encounter with him now knows him as "The One Who Devours Souls".
