Storyline
| Plot Summary |
In Boston of 1691, a warlock is sentenced to death, but escapes magically into the future (our present), followed doggedly by the witch hunter. There he is searching for the three parts of the Devil's Bible, trailed by the witch hunter and the woman whose house he landed in. They must stop him, as the book contains the true name of God, which he can use to un-create the world.

| Trivia | The scene where the "witch" flies out of the cargo compartment on the airplane took several takes. The actor couldn't easily open the cargo door on the B707, so actual airline employees were used. See more » |
| Goofs | Redfern asks if the farmer is Amish, and the farmer replies Mennonite. He wouldn't have known about either in Boston in 1691. See more » |

[admonishing Kassandra after stopping her crashing the car]
Let your attention lie before you, not beside you. Kassandra: Check this! Some guy from the seventeenth century telling ME how to drive. How quick they learn! See more » |
