As we all know, the soul of living creatures exist in subspace, which is a very high-pressure reality. While creatures are inhabited by their own soul, this isn't a problem, because the soul is access via a link between our world and subspace, but when a Mudokon possesses another creature, the soul is brought physically into our dimension, where it undergoes explosive decompression. Abe had the ability to put this off for long enough to do what he wanted with the Sligs' bodies (and has since learnt to withstand all that internal pressure entirely).
