I was like, “This is scary, let’s leave.” I rolled down the window before we left and said, “We apologize. I felt this sick, overwhelming feeling of negativity over the whole car and we smelled sulfur, which is the sign of a demon, and there was a fly in the car randomly, which is another sign of a demon.

She’s the most badass, independent woman you’ll ever meet-not the cookies-in-the-oven type.
