Who Is Adramelech?
Adramelech is
Chancellor of the Infernal Regions, Keeper of the Demon King's Wardrobe, and
President of the High Council of the Devils, according to Johan Weyer.
He was imprisoned in Sepharvaim, an Assyrian town, and his
shrine was used to burn infants.
He appeared in the guise of a mule or, on rare occasions, a
peacock, according to Rabbis of the day.
Johann Weyer's De Praestigiis depicts
witches, devils, and doctors in the Renaissance.
George Mora edited the piece.
