Don't mock your local priest unless you are willing to face the consequences.

1. The Devil Abducts a Farmer (See Hennenberger p. 349.) Around the time of the holiday of the Immaculate Conception, a farmer held abominable, insulting speeches about his parish priest while he was in the inn of Plewitzken, which lies about a mile away from Taplaucken. Then he went home, and when he reached the front of his house, the Devil carried him away under much screaming. A few days later, he was found in the shrubs. But his body and his clothes were so ripped and torn apart by the thorns that nobody recognized him. He was only identified by parts of the clothing which were hanging piecemeal on the shrubs. While he had screamed so pitifully, his kin ran out of the house in order to see what this noise was all about. But they did not see or find anything other than the farmer’s hat and a small poker. The farmer had carried these with him, and they were now lying on the ground. Source: Grässe, J. G. T. Sagenbuch des preussischen Staats. Zweiter Band. 1869, p. 613.
