When a bored incubus makes a bet with his annoyed succubus partner, all bets are off.
Summary from a flyer:
When the advent of the so-called Sexual Revolution back in the 1970's, a lot of things changed, but nobody gave a single thought to the negative repercussions those changes would have on certain supernatural critters -- especially succubi and incubi. Stuck with the job of collecting souls for their Boss Downstairs but lacking a reliable means of so doing, they turned from their traditional enticements to ones that would prey on another major human failing -- greed -- and the new breed that so exemplified it: Yuppies.But not all of these demonic types were happy with the changes; some pined for the Good Old Days and wantd very badly to prove to their Boss that the Old Ways could work just as well as the New. Thus was born a wager between a Park Avenue incubus and his succubus partner, a bet that he could use the old methods to quickly and successfully snare the soul of the first woman to walk through their office door.
