After years of communing with the occult, Travis Ward is scared. He knows that he is destined for Hell, and is being very careful not to fall for the Devil's tricks. He meets an old friend, and tells her that he has recently seen the Hellspawn who is to escort him to Hell. But careful as he is, he is looking in the wrong direction, for after his story ends, his friend gets a cab to take him home. But she has not hailed just any cab. Travis Ward has just gotten in a cab driven by the taxi driver from Hell.
