10 MORE Horror Victims Who Got EXACTLY What They Deserved
2. Jack Delroy - Late Night With The Devil
Late Night with the Devil revolves around Jack Delroy, a talk show host who attempts to boost his flagging ratings with a Halloween special that features paranormal guests. One of the participants is a possessed teen called Lilly, who was the sole survivor of a Satanic cult.
Jack is effortlessly charming, so it's easy to momentarily forget how devious he is. He's so desperate for fame and fortune, he's willing to exploit a little girl who's witnessed unspeakable horrors on national television.
At first, viewers may go easy on Jack. He's far from perfect, but he's also in a lot of pain since he's obviously grieving for his late wife, Minnie. However, all sympathy for the TV host dries up when you learn what he did.
During the climax, it's unveiled that Jack sold Minnie's soul to the Devil for power, killing her in the process. When Minnie's ghost appears during the third act, Jack stabs her with a mystical dagger, believing it'll let her spirit pass on to the afterlife.
In the next shot, Jack realises he's been tricked, since he actually stabbed Lilly to death, tarnishing his reputation beyond repair. Though Jack Delroy became famous, it wasn't in the way he wanted.
