evil souls on earth and bringing them back to hell. But when a twist of
fate brings Johnny's long-lost love Roxanne back into his life, Johnny
realizes he just might have a second chance at happiness if he can beat the
devil Blackheart and win back his soul. To do so he'll have to defeat his
nemesis and wayward son, Blackheart, whose plot to take over his father's

too late.
In order to save his dying father, young stunt cyclist Johnny Blaze sells
his soul to Mephistopheles and sadly parts from the pure-hearted Roxanne

release Johnny's soul if Johnny becomes the fabled, fiery Ghost Rider, a
