alp In German lore, a vampiric, shape-shifting spirit
associated with nightmare DEMONs, the BOGEY, and the
sexual predator demons, the SUCCUBUS and INCUBUS. The
alp can be either a demon or a malevolent ghost of a dead
person. In folklore, children are doomed to become alps
if their mothers use horse collars to ease childbirth.
The alp can assume different forms, from seductive
humans to animals, such as cats, pigs, birds, and lecherous
dogs. It may be disguised as a butterfly released by
the breath of the horerczy, another vampiric demon.
Regardless of its form, the alp likes to wear a magical
hat, which confers upon it invisibility and supernatural
power, including the EVIL EYE.
The alp has an odd way of sexually molesting men and
women: It enters through the victim’s mouth as a mist or a
SERPENT. It drinks BLOOD through the nipples of both men
and women and consumes the milk of women and cows.
It sucks the life breath from victims.
Folklore holds that women can prevent the alp from
bothering them at night by sleeping with their shoes at
the side of the bed and pointing toward the door.
Amduscias FALLEN ANGEL and 67th of the 72 SPIRITS OF
SOLOMON. Amduscias is a great duke of HELL who rules
over 29 LEGIONs of DEMONs. He appears first as a unicorn.
He will take on human shape if commanded to do so, but
this will cause musical instruments to be heard but not
seen. Trees sway at the sound of his voice, and he gives
people the power to make trees fall and also gives excellent
FAMILIARs.

Amityville Haunting House in Amityville, Long
Island, New York, where a family experienced horrifying
phenomena in the 1970s. The Amityville Horror® was
deemed demonic by ED AND LORRAINE WARREN. The case
remains one of the most controversial on modern records
and has been the subject of numerous investigations,
claims and counterclaims, lawsuits, books and films,
intense publicity, and attempts to debunk it.
The haunting phenomena of the house at 112 Ocean
Street are believed to be related to a grisly multiple murder
on November 13, 1974. Six members of the DeFeo family—parents,
two sons, and two daughters—were found
shot to death with a .35-caliber rifle. Their estimated time
of death was 3:00 A.M. A third son, 23-year-old Ronald
“Butch” DeFeo, was charged with the murders. DeFeo
pled insanity, based on his history of drug abuse, but he
was convicted of six counts of second-degree murder and
sentenced to 25 years to life in prison.
The house was empty until December 1975, when it
was purchased by newlyweds, George and Kathy Lutz.
They were informed of the murders but bought the house
anyway. They moved in on December 18, with Kathy’s
three children by a previous marriage: Daniel, nine;
Christopher, seven; and Melissa, five.
According to the Lutzes, they immediately experienced
horrible phenomena. Voices told them to “get out”;
there were swarms of flies in the cold of winter; Kathy
had nightmares about the murders; the apparition of a
“demon boy” who could shape-shift into a demonic pig
was seen; green slime oozed from walls; a crucifix hanging
on a wall was turned upside down; Kathy’s face transfigured
before George into a horrid hag; mysterious noises
sounded in the middle of the night; the apparition of a
little girl became Melissa’s playmate; unseen presences
embraced Kathy; cloven hoofprints appeared in the snow
outside the house; locks and doors were damaged; and so
on. Their behavior and mood deteriorated. The children
could not attend school, and George was unable to work.
The Lutzes tried to bless the house with prayer themselves,
but their efforts had no effect. Finally, they were
subjected to events that terrified them so badly, they knew
they had to get out. The Lutzes never disclosed all that
happened on their last terror-filled night, but among the
phenomena were bangings and a hooded apparition that
appeared on the stairs and pointed at George. They left
the house in a rush on January 14, 1976, and went to the
home of Kathy’s mother, in Deer Park, New York. They
left most of their belongings behind and sent a mover to
collect them later.
In late February, Ed and Lorraine Warren were contacted
by a New York City television producer, who asked
them to check the house and story. Parapsychologists and
psychical researchers had gone to the house, but what
happened there remained a mystery. The producer asked
the Warrens to hold a séance at the house.
The Warrens visited the Lutzes where they were staying
and obtained keys. The Lutzes refused to reenter the
house but asked the Warrens to find and take the deed
to them.
On their walk-through, the Warrens found a house
evacuated in a hurry. A gingerbread house from Christmas
still sat on the dining room table. Laundry was
folded, and the freezer was stocked with food. Clothing,
jewelry, family photos, and other personal belongings
were left in place.
