Bael: the invisible demon of the grimoires

Bael: the invisible demon of the grimoires.

Bael joins a court of demons very prestigious among wizards and witches of the Middle Ages.

This popularity is due to a very simple reason. Bael granted his devotees a very precious gift during the Inquisition: impassivity in the face of torment, that is, a certain insensitivity to the rigorous interrogations carried out by faith.

Nicolás Aymerich, in his cursed book: Directorium Inquisitorum (Inquisitors’ Manual) denounces this stratagem.

According to the grimoires and forbidden books of the Middle Ages, including the inquisitorial chronicles, Bael was the main enemy of the exorcists.

In fact, exorcists were trained to overcome the tricks and harsh tests imposed by Bael. His most powerful weapon was stealth and caution. He never announced his actions except when the sagacity of the exorcist forced him to manifest himself openly.

Some demonological treatises even claim that Bael possessed the disconcerting gift of invisibility, often rendering victims of his diabolical possession invisible.

Bael literally means “Lord”, and the etymology of his name links him directly to Baal, the demon of fertility who challenged Yahweh, Baalcephon, Baalberith, the demon of lawyers, Belphegor, Belial and Beelzebub, the lord of the flies. .
