NEW RELEASE: The Devil in the 19th Century (Vol.2): Hardcover Edition with Slipcase

"An indispensable translation of the Satanic hoax to end all hoaxes, in English for the first time." – Dr Per Faxneld, author of Satanic Feminism: Lucifer as the Liberator in Nineteenth-Century Culture

"A labour of love from the skillful hands of Mlle Dekoninck that will finally give English readers access to one of the most bizarre works of the nineteenth century." – Dr Ruben van Luijk, author of Children of Lucifer: The Origins of Modern Religious Satanism

The second volume of The Devil in the 19th Century picks up right where Volume 1 left off, with Doctor Bataille on his way to Charleston to meet the Antipope. 

We follow in the good doctor's footsteps as he pushes his investigation of Luciferian Freemasonry across Europe and South America: meeting the foremother of the Antichrist, descending into the secret satanic forges of Gibraltar, and uncovering the identity of the mysterious Keeper of Plagues and Poisons.

Secretly written by Léo Taxil and first published in France in 1892, Le Diable au XIXème Siècle presents itself as the extraordinary witness account of a fearless Catholic doctor.

Part travel journal and part investigative report, filled with satanic schemes and a rich cast of shady characters, it is a thrilling, lurid, and sensationalist read.

There has never been an English translation… Until now.
