"So, who's Sam Hain?" Detective Decker asked, walking up to Ella and Lucifer after examining the message - written in blood at the entry - and preparing to examine the actual victim.
"No, Detective, it is clearly a reference to Samhain, the original pagan holiday upon which modern All Hallow's is based," said Lucifer, not a little peevishly. "Someone was celebrating a little too literally with the old human sacrifice."
"Sorry, Chloe, you're not the first person he's had to correct," Ella said, with an apologetic glance at the Devil.
"So the Halloween murderer just referenced an old-timey version of Halloween? Does that even make sense?"
"Detective, please use the apostrophe in Hallowe'en, if you must refer to it thusly," Lucifer asked, even more irritably.
"How do you know I didn't?"
"I just do," said Lucifer and Ella chimed in with, "he knew I wasn't apostrphizing, either."
Lucifer glared at Ella, who shrugged.
"Well, if none of you are going to take Samhain seriously, I will return to Lux until such a time as I am properly appreciated," Lucifer threatened.
"So, who's Sam Hain?" Dan called as he approached the team.
Lucifer threw his hands up in disgust and marched off to his Jag.
"Something I said?"
"Don't worry about it, Dan, I think it's an English thing," said Ella.
"Not! English!" Lucifer shouted over the roar of his car's engine.
