Vicky Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 This book apparently came about after a discussion the author had with a catholic priest. The priest commented on the importance of knowing a demon’s name during exorcism and house cleansings. This inspired Michelle Belanger went through the old medieval and Renaissance grimoires and indexed the demons mentioned. About 1500 of them. That’s basically it; an A-Z of demons with lists at the end showing correspondences for the demons and another list for the Goetic demons along with their constraining angels. I bought it on kindle which makes it easier to search specific words. I’ve been reading a few books on psychic protection which have made claims that “all” demons don’t like certain things so it’s easy to put the word in and do a search so see whether the old grimoires contradict or support the statement.

Gramayr Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I've seen her on tv several times, she appears as a psychic on one of those popular ghost hunter type programmes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scylla Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Miss Belanger did her research. To the teeth. I recall her tweeting or blogging about having to travel to various libraries to study original manuscripts. You don't often get that with a mass-market author. While I don't always "get" or "agree" with her stuff, she doesn't screw around, that's for sure. I use this one, generally, for on-the-fly "I heard a name in my dreams and I wonder if it's something interesting" type lookups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
