The Weird Encyclopedia

As its name indicates, this is an encyclopedia of the “weird”. This word is apparently interpreted quite broadly, because the index of subjects includes such diverse entries as acupuncture, alien abductions, angels, Bigfoot, conjoined twins, demonic possession, devil’s footprints, the elephant man, Joan of Arc, talking in tongues, the Hope Diamond Curse, unicorns, voodoo curses, ghosts, werewolves, and zombies.

In addition to the main articles, there is also a “True Stories” section in which visitors can describe their own personal weird experiences, such as encounters with ghosts, sightings of aliens from another planet, or attacks by strange animals.

In an article called “Demons A to Z”, I found a long list of individual demons with accompanying names and descriptions. I learned that a demon named Amduscas is a “Grand Duke of Hell who commands 29 legions of devils”, and that Lilith is a well-known female demon who was the first wife of Adam before he married Eve.

This is a very large site, and a visitor could spend many hours perusing its varied content. To see it for yourself, go to Weird Encyclopedia.
