comment
Evil Versus Evil: The theme of "evil against evil" is prevalent, starting with Merrin's archeological trip to Northern Iraq where he finds a demon statue that the natives stated was an evil artifact to combat evil. This foreshadows Karras' "evil act" of accepting Pazuzu into himself, to save Regan: also, suicide's a mortal sin in the Catholic Church. The reason it works is that Karras, like Christ, is willing to give his life to save another (John 15:13).

Disappeared Dad: Howard MacNeil is in Europe for the whole book, which the characters surmise is the reason of her pick of the name "Captain Howdy."

Deadpan Snarker: Karl can also be one of these. He and Chris have several low-key sparring exchanges.
