Cauchemar
Variations: Cauquemare, Chauche Vieille,
Coche-Mares, Cochomaren, Cochomares,
Couchemache, Couchemal, Gaukemares, Macouche, “pressing demon,” Quauquemaire,
“witch-riding”
A vampiric demon or vampiric witch from
French lore and similar to the ALP, the
cauchemar (“nightmare”) is a nocturnal demon
who usually attacks evil people. It slips into the
victim’s bed at night and has intercourse with
them, draining them of their life and sexual energies much the way an INCUBUS or SUCCUBUS
would, enslaving its victim with sexual pleasure.
Signs of having been attacked are waking up
with drool descending from either side of the
mouth, feeling overly tired, having leg cramps,
and evidence of nocturnal emission during the
night.
To prevent a cauchemar attack put salt under

the pillow before you go to sleep each night.
Other methods include placing beans under the
bed, keeping a broom in the corner of the bedroom, saying your prayers before bedtime each
night, sleeping on your stomach, keeping blessed
religious items in the room, keeping stones under
the bed and in a circle around it, and lastly, the
most modern adaptation of putting screens in the
windows.
If you find that you are unable to prevent a
cauchemar attack from occurring, or if no one
comes in the room and drives it away by touching
you, the experience can be fatal.

Caym
Variations: CAIM, Camio, DANEL, Gamiel
Caym’s name may be a German derivative of
the biblical Cain. In Christian demonology

Caym is ranked as a chief of Hell and grand president commanding thirty legions of demons. He

is also said to be a FALLEN ANGEL as well as one
of the seventy-two SPIRITS OF SOLOMON.
When summoned and answering questions, he
appears as a long-haired, bearded, and mustached
human male carrying a sword and wearing
bracelets and neat trousers and boots. He also
takes the guise of a blackbird and a man wearing
a headdress adorned with peacock feathers. In art
he is depicted with both hands turned upward, a
fierce facial expression, and a collection of
animals and bits of wood at his feet.
Caym can imitate the sound and call of any
animal. He is exceptionally wise and witty, and
can teach how to communicate with animals and
water. He has the ability to foretell the future
and is a highly skilled logician. His voice will
come from the smoke of a burning braiser. He is
most powerful during the first hour of the night.
It should be noted that as the angel DANEL,
he was one of the CHIEF OF TENS who swore allegiance to SAMIAZA, rebelled against God, took
a human wife, and fathered the NEPHILIM (see
FALLEN ANGELS).
