And when the Star Boy accidentally channels his true form on to the whiteboard of every class at Riverside Academy, things reach a whole new level of panic. With frenzied reports of an alien sighting trending on social media, how can Kiki and Wes keep their friend safe?

  "Romantic Demons: Victory Over Incubus and Succubus" leads you to that shadowy world in which this line between myth and reality is blurred, and the fears of the ages come to life. Ever since the first whisper of their names, incubi and succubi have fascinated and terrified, sirenly entrapping their victims into a seductive, deadly embrace. The veil is pulled off in this book, exposing the dark truth about these nocturnal predators. 
  Look into the human mind, where true terror really resides. Analyze how sleep paralysis and suppressed desires result in nightmarish encounters with these demons. It is the depth of the psychology in these myths that makes them all the more real—and horrifying. And in a world infested with these demons, man has retaliated with each available weapon at his disposal. Learn about religious artifacts, charms, and modern practices designed to keep these nightmarish beings at bay. Discover the mix of superstition and practical wisdom developed to reclaim our nights. 
  As the last curtain falls, reflect on the strength these myths still hold. Incubi and succubi are not just relics of those times but living testaments to humanity's darkest fears and desires. Celebrate that resilient, ingenious human spirit, which turned terror into triumph and ancient dread into a testament of survival. 
  "Romantic Demons: Victory Over Incubus and Succubus" is an investigation, an invitation into a world where the ancient crashes into the modern. It isn't a light passage through darkness, with high stakes and profound revelations. Will you dare to uncover the truth?
