The Infernal Dictionary

The Infernal Dictionary, created by Charles De Kay in 1886, is a comprehensive reference that catalogs demons, spirits, and mythical beings from various cultures and mythologies. It serves as an organized compendium, providing descriptions, origins, and classifications of these entities, much like an encyclopedia of supernatural figures. Its purpose is to clarify and systematize knowledge about infernal and supernatural concepts, making it useful for scholars, writers, and enthusiasts interested in understanding the historical and cultural significance of these beings. Overall, it functions as a detailed guide to the diverse world of mythological and spiritual entities associated with the infernal or supernatural realm.
