Allegations of 'Satanic abuse' became fashionable in the late twentieth century, but such episodes actually date back many centuries. Well-known critic and historian Brian Stableford provides a thorough history of Satanism, from its earliest times to the modern period, and also examines the appearance of 'His Nibs' in horror and other fiction. Complete with bibliography and index. 3
