He's got 777 in his name!

You're probably thinking of "666". See the book of Revelation.

Nope, Revelation doesn't bother me.

I'm thinking of something more horrific: 777 (check: Aleister Crowley).

I'd never heard of Aleister Crowley but just a cursory search for information on him quickly convinced me that your description of "something horrific" is quite fitting. My "777" has nothing to do with him.

Oh, and if 666 is the number of the beast then 668 must be the neighbor of the beast.

I've written a whole series of skits called "668: Neighbor of the Beast." It involves an urban apartment dweller who lives next door to hell. Satan (his neighbor) is all done up in red makeup complete with horns and a cape. He drops by to borrow sugar, stuff like that. He's a nice guy. In one skit, the main character (Dave) is passing 668. He hears moaning and wailing. He knocks on the door. Satan answers (behind him we see an ordinary apartment, nothing hellish about it at all).

SATAN: Oh, hi, Dave. How's it going?

DAVE: Not too bad. Look, Satan, I hate to bug you, but it's a little late for all the wailing and gnashing of teeth. Do you think you could turn it down a couple of notches?

SATAN: Hey, no problem. My bad. We were just going to knock off for the night anyway. Sorry for the disturbence.

DAVE: It's okay. Ordinarily it wouldn't bother me, but I have an early meeting tomorrow.

SATAN: Sure thing. Hey, I'm in charge of the lobby Christmas tree this year. Think you could kick in a couple of bucks?

DAVE (reaching for his wallet): Sure. Here ya go.

SATAN: Thanks. Let me write you a receipt.

DAVE: Don't worry about it. I trust you. (both laugh) Anyway, have a good night, Satan. My best to all of the damned.

SATAN: Night, Dave. Good luck with that meeting tomorrow.

DAVE: Thanks. (to himself after the door closes) What a nice guy.
