    "Ex Oblivione" is a prose poem by American horror fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft, written in late 1920 or early 1921 and first published in The United Amateur in March 1921, under the pseudonym Ward Phillips.It is written in first person and tells of the dreams of a presumably dying man. In his dreams, the man is walking through a valley and encounters a vine-covered wall with a locked bronze gate therein. He longs to know what lies beyond the gate. Then one night, the man dreams of the dream-city Zakarion, in which he finds a yellowed papyrus written by wise dream-sages who exist only within the dream world. The papyrus tells of the gate, with varying accounts of what lies beyond: some of the dream-sages tell of immense wonders, while others tell of horror and disappointment. Despite this lack of unanimity, the man still wishes to see for himself, even knowing that whichever of these is true, there will be no return. Thus he reads further into the papyrus and learns of a drug which will unlock the gate. The next night he swallows the drug and returns to the gate which is now ajar, but upon entering, he discovers that indeed both accounts within the papyrus are in a sense true: beyond is the wonderment of forever being free from the pain of the real world and the happy surprise that nothing lies beyond the gate but the infinite void that is death.

    When the Devil takes the stand, justice must confront Hell itself. 
    In a Chicago courtroom unlike any other, defence attorney Mira Shah faces her most chilling case yet: Marcus Vell, a tech CEO turned murder suspect, claims a demon possessed him during the brutal ritual killing of his lover. 
    But as the trial begins, strange things happen. Lights explode. Jurors scream. Evidence rewrites itself. And cryptic messages point Mira toward a disgraced exorcist named Father Dante—her last hope in a legal system unravelling under supernatural pressure. 
    This isn't just a defence. It's a summoning. And the courtroom is the altar. 
    As demonic forces twist reality and ancient laws awaken, Mira must survive jury selection from the grave, opening statements from the damned, and cross-examinations of the dead because this trial isn't about guilt or innocence anymore. 
    It's about the verdict the Devil has already written. 
    The Devil's Witness Had Blood on the Gavel is a mind-bending supernatural legal thriller that combines courtroom drama with occult horror. If you like The Exorcist and The Devil's Advocate, prepare for a dark descent into possession, judgment, and the laws Hell never forgot.
