Samuel Granger, the pale pastor with brown hair and red eyes, is actually A'araneth, an ancient evil demon sent to corrupt humanity who has been posing as the abusive pastor. Though possessed by sadistic and psychopathic instincts as a demon,  he finds himself increasingly conflicted torn between his growing love for Samuel's child, whom he wishes to treat with kindness unlike the true pastor, and completing Satan's mission. A'araneth puts on a pious show of Christianity to keep up the ruse.
