Quotes
-
Etrigan : You survived the Bat / But your costume's ruined, and we can't have that.
[produces a new outfit for Batman]
-
Batman : Craddock, he's going to betray you!
Asteroth : Give me the horn, human.
James Craddock : First, complete your end of the bargain. Make me immortal.
Asteroth : Very well. Your soul shall never pass from the Earth.
James Craddock : I feel invincible.
Etrigan : You're a foolish man to take that deal. A demon's promise is never real.
-
Scarecrow : You haven't won yet, Batman. By now, the city is intoxicated with fear.
[seeing a large stack of pumpkins with Jay standing atop]
Scarecrow : Huh?
Golden Age Flash : Trick or treat.
[the pumpkins fall, burying Scarecrow underneath]
Golden Age Flash : And that, sir, is a wrap.
-
Golden Age Flash : This is the last straw, Scarecrow.
Batman : Your Halloween trail of terror dead-ends here.
Scarecrow : [stopping his companion] Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait, Scream Queen. Let's first offer our trick-or-treaters some candy.
[he throws a pumpkin, which explodes]
Batman : Fear gas.
Scarecrow : [cackling] Indeed. I've genetically modified this year's entire pumpkin crop to emit my fear gas when heated. Every jack-o-lantern in the city is a ticking time bomb.
Batman : [Jay uses his speed to disperse the gas] I'll take Scarecrow. You handle the...
[seeing he's gone]
Batman : ...pumpkins.
-
Jason Blood : And what of Craddock?
Dr. Watson : I daresay he won't be causing any more trouble for humanity. The jury will make sure of that.
Gentleman Ghost : [rising from his grave] No matter how many centuries I have to wait to face you, Batman... I will find you again, and I will have my revenge!
-
Jason Blood : Gone, gone, form of man. Arise the demon, Etrigan!
-
Jason Blood : [freed from a pyre by Batman] Thank you, Batman. They think I'm some kind of monster.
Batman : Last time I checked, you were.
Jason Blood : I'm only bonded with Etrigan. We are two different beings. Neither of whom are responsible for these attacks.
-
Batman : We need to keep a low profile until we can learn more about these crimes. Holmes, how many victims so far?
Sherlock Holmes : Tonight makes eight total. All found in catatonic states. Clearly, the result of a supernatural attack.
Batman : Any leads?
Sherlock Holmes : [taking out a newspaper] "Seventh victim found on Dorset Street. Villain taunts authorities with note." What do you make of this, detective?
Batman : "The granite demon crumbles in your city's blood frame. When 10:00 she strikes, I'll never sleep again."
Sherlock Holmes : Stumped, I see. Well, luckily, my powers of deduction tell me that it's actually a veiled reference to the gargoyles at Mignola Chapel.
Batman : Actually, "granite demon" is an anagram for "Demon Etrigan", Blood's, uh... . alter ego. "Bloody frame" refers to framing Blood. And I'm sure 10:00 indicates the number of victims.
Jason Blood : [hearing a woman scream] That sounds like number nine.
-
Batman : The man in the carriage is Jim Craddock. In my time, he's a criminal named Gentleman Ghost.
Sherlock Holmes : Gentleman Jim, the notorious highwayman.
Batman : What I saw Craddock do with that powder horn was no mere robbery.
Jason Blood : [looking at one of the victims] On the contary, it was indeed robbery. The worst kind. In my library, we can search for reference on the horn you saw.
Batman : Watson, have your police force clear the streets. No one travels alone, understand?
[Watson salutes, and as Batman and Blood leave, Holmes turns to do so, as well]
Dr. Watson : Holmes, wait. You mustn't go off alone.
Sherlock Holmes : My dear Watson, if I'm to solve the case before this Batman, that's exactly what I must do.
-
Jason Blood : Is this what you saw? Wagner's horn. It is just as I feared. Asteroth. Etrigan and Merlin imprisoned him in the underworld three centuries ago.
Batman : "When 10:00 she strikes, I'll never sleep again." Craddock struck a deal with this demon to become immortal, or never sleep, in exchange for ten souls.
Jason Blood : With the strength of the souls, Asteroth could break free from his prison.
Batman : And if he only needs one more, we'd better hurry.
Dr. Watson : That won't be necessary, Batman.
Batman : You found him?
Dr. Watson : Well, not I, sir. The great Sherlock Holmes located the fiend's hideaway at the old windmill and is on his way there to apprehend him presently.
