Storyline

Barbas, the upper level Demon of Fear who is in purgatory, manages with measly Stimple to use projection in order to steal magical powers, starting with Cole, then Paige who never before faced him. Once back in life, his powers soon suffice to make his bid for the throne as Source, but he rather vanquishes any demon who stands between him and revenge on the Charmed sisters: the champions of good will need to face their worst fears, which his demonic gift makes them experience coming true...
