mentioned by name in the Book of Enoch. Said to
have dominion over the fifth hour of the night,
Abaros swore allegiance to SAMIAZA and went
against God’s will by not only teaching mankind
how to both create and remove magical enchantments but also by taking a human female as his
wife. The offspring of the union between these
FALLEN ANGELS and the daughters of man were
known as the NEPHILIM.

Abbadon
In early British paganism Abbadon was a demonic god of war. After battles when time permitted, a huge wooden structure would be
erected in his honor and filled with captive enemy
soldiers. It was then set ablaze, burning all inside
alive so that their lives would be a suitable
sacrifice to summon Abbadon and entice him to
enter the fray in the next battle.
There is another demon by the name of Abbadon; he is also known as ABDON, the Angel of
the Bottomless Pit, and Apollyon (“one that exterminates”). Abbadon (“The Destroyer”) of Hebrew lore is mentioned in the Old Testament
books of Job 28:22 and the Book of Revelation
9:11. He is said to be the leader of a swarm of demonic locusts that are described as having the
face of a human, the body of a winged horse, and
the tail of a scorpion. Abbadon is the demon of

death and destruction; he inspires men to anarchy
and to create chaos. He is variously described as
an ARCHDEMON or Fallen Angel, and is himself
said to be under the control of demon SAMMAEL.
Insects are sacred to him (see also ABADDON).
Abbadon VERRIER is named as the demon of
knowledge, secrets, and sorcery. He is also listed
as one of the FALLEN ANGELS.

Abere
Variations: Abele, Obere
From Melanesian folklore comes the singular
demonic entity known as Abere (“Maiden”). Described as a beautiful young woman as well as a
provocative seductress, she is a known cannibal
that preys exclusively upon men. Abere will use
her feminine guile to lure a man into the lake or
swampy region she calls home. Once there, she
strips naked and slides into the water, hiding just
out of full sight in the mimia reeds; from her hidden position, she calls, enticing the man to
follow. If her prey is foolish enough to do so,
Abere will stealthily hunt him down, and, using
her power over the reeds, will tangle and trap him
there, after which she will drown him and consume his flesh. In addition to having control over
the water reeds, she also commands several young

and nearly as beautiful female companions.
