Synopsis
Fact:
One of the beliefs of Nazism was that Aryan symbols had been stolen by Christianity and had to be reclaimed. One of those symbols was the swastika; another was the Holy Grail. Hitler already had the relic claiming to be the Holy Lance, the spear of destiny said to be the spear that pierced the side of Christ.
According to the legend, it possesses magical powers from the underworld. Whoever owns it can conquer and rule the world.
Set on this quest for the Grail was Otto Rahn, who died six-an-a-half months before the start of World War II. It is rumored he recovered the Holy Grail…
Hitler was involved with an occult group called the Thule Gesellschaft. They claimed to be an organization descended from the Knights Templar – guardians of the Holy Grail. They practiced the occult powers of Lucifer – the art of black magic.
At one time the Knights Templar were the most powerful society in Europe. Set up to protect pilgrims to the Holy Land, they were the spiritual leaders of the Christian world. But overnight they were destroyed for reasons that have puzzled generations.
On Friday October 13, 1307, Philip IV of France arrested the leaders of the Knights Templar. They were accused of witchcraft, black magic and worshipping strange gods. Under torture they confessed to taking part in all kind of bizarre rituals and, strangest of all, that they obeyed a bodiless head that talked.
Our story continues as a tired band of American soldiers, stumble toward a deserted church to take refuge for the night. Just behind enemy lines, their mission to find a German factory producing fake Allied tanks, has gone bad. Unknown to them, the Nazi’s recovered the Holy Grail and were using the factory as a front to conduct experiments in the occult, trying to make a super-weapon to lay waste to the allies on the battlefield.
Upon first glance, the church appears empty, until they come across a strange priest, crippled and broken. He speaks of knowledge of the factory and what they were doing. As night falls however, the priest is more than he appears to be. Stalking the troops one at a time, he mentally tortures them and tries to break them down. Later, he is chased into the basement and displays super-human strength. Being shot at has no effect on him. He disappears down a tunnel that leads to where the old factory was. It seems the church and the factory are connected, explaining the presence of the entity in the structure.
The soldiers muster their courage and strength and follow the creature into the lair where they are attacked physically and mentally. The evil force has gained enough strength to let go of the human shell it has possessed, the priest, and reveals itself as a twisted, corpse looking demon, ready to unleash it’s force on Allies and Axis alike. After brutally killing two of the soldiers, the remainder of the party take refuge in the church sanctuary and confront the demon, first with traditional weapons, then with a holy cross, defeating it by impaling it and forcing it to the floor where it splits into a million pieces.
