About the author

JS

J. S. Forsyth

Best known for Demonologia, this elusive early 19th-century British writer explored superstition, folklore, and pseudo-science with a strongly skeptical eye. The surviving record is thin, but the books linked to the name suggest a wide curiosity about history, medicine, and the stranger corners of popular belief.
