Maybe god was taking a bathe and didn't want to answer the god phone?
Some Christians have created a devil that is a lot more powerful than their own deity.
I have a loved horror movies and novels for nearly my entire life. My mother worried that I'd 'invite' demonic forces into my life. She wasn't particularly religious but if my car broke down or I got sick, she always asked if I had read something scary. For proof of her weird views, she told me about her cousin who read some sort of book(or watched a scary movie) and saw a demonic figure in her house. My mother was a bit of a loon, by the way.
When my mom died, her cousins from SC attended the funeral. I barely knew these people. One of the women sort of tried to pick up my dead mother's boyfriend at the funeral. The same woman's brother told us an off color story about his parents' sex life and then put his arm around my brother and me so we couldn't escape. He then began to preach/pray to us because he wanted to make certain that we learned from the funeral that god was necessary. His sisters explained that he was a preacher and seemed to think that should excuse the awkward evangelizing.
