This has got to be the creepiest card I have ever seen.
Considering for a Gothic Horror set much of the flavor text as rather humorous (or intended to be) its nice to see some really chilling stuff.

It's a 3/3 Juzam Djinn for 1W. Not bad.

I really don't like this card. It's basically a smaller Juzam Djinn, but with no black requirement. If this was a hybrid card it would be rejected for not making sense in white, but as a transform card it's okay?
@Laguz Have you ever actually read this card? Odd that you'd name it your favorite in that case. It doesn't fly, and its transformed form is black, so Honor of the Pure has no pump on it. Anyways... Suicide white? What is this, I don't even

I've seen a shiny version of this, and the way its eyes glow is creepy. Flavor wise the card hits on every level. And in terms of power this is an amazing beater in limited.

@ Yes, Saikuba. It's okay as a transform card, because it's not a hybrid card. HURRR DURRR. It also completely makes sense flavorfully, what is it that you don't get about this card?

I actually LOVE this card. It is my favorite card in the set (personal favorite...the best card in the set is liliana in my opinion). So much flavor here, and it curves nicely into omg rtfc before making stupid comments laguz, kthx.
I just wish it was a human horror. I also wish that flavor does not have to be inversely proportional to a card's power level. Sure, we'll make Linda Blair here be mediocre, but a bird holding a sword is going to be the best deck in standard! Ugh.

@Kryptnyt and anyone else who didn't know yet:
She isn't black. She's colorless. All transformed cards are colorless, and have a converted mana cost of 0. The way they subtly put that out there is the fact that they do not say (Unholy Fiend is Black) on the card. A card's color(s) are indicated by their mana costs, or text they may have. Such as Transguild Courier, who costs 4 colorless mana, but is all colors at all times due to its text. However in all transformed card's cases, no mana, no text saying otherwise.
On another note, this thing is a great, early bomb in white. I do love the flavor and artwork of the card. I just lawl at how hard a single ratchet bomb will wreck almost every Innistrad deck I've seen, without charge counters.

@Megapossum:
You're wrong. According to Daliy MTG, a transformed card's colors are indicated by its color indicator, in the same line as its card types. So this is black, and All is Dust will wipe away all your transformed cards.

I don't like playing this card.
Simply because I cry from the decision I have to make every upkeep. Poor little girl.
@Megapossum Lash_of_Dragonbreath is referring to this article: http://www.wizards.com/magic/tcg/article.aspx?x=mtg/tcg/innistrad/dfcrules where it states: "The back face of a double-faced card is marked with a moon symbol, lacks a mana cost, and has a color indicator—that's the dot on its type line—that tells you what color it is. The two faces of a double-faced card are often the same color, but not always."
You're right to say that a Ratchet Bomb without charges can be havoc; you're wrong to say that All is Dust won't affect it.

It's a nice efficient beater for two mana. Don't complain. Im just waiting for the right spot to put her, waste your removal on this. Too bad the Unholy Fiend isn't a human horror...

Fun card, great to have 3/3 for 2 CMC with a minor drawback, made especially minor in life-gaining white. Wondering if it can work reasonably with Gift of Orzhova.

3/3 for 2 is good power, and this flavor is incredible.
