I made the mistake of writing this scene after watching several hours of real-life exorcisms and Hollywood movies at two in the morning, haha. So I thought that most of the creep-factor was all in my head, but I'm glad it's reaching out to my readers too. :D
This is one of my favorite lines too, and I'm thrilled that you enjoyed it as well!

Her hands traveled across her bosom, then down her stomach and back again. “She’s not in here anymore, not no more, not no more. She stopped showing up a loooooong time ago. It’s all me in here.”
