U
udugg (utukku) A type of Babylonian DEMON who can
be either good or evil. A group of evil ones are known as
the Seven; they are offspring of the sky god, An, and the
Earth goddess, Ki, and they act as assistants to the
underworld god, Nergal. In Akkadian lore, the utukku
are servants of the underworld, whose task is to fetch the
sacrificial offerings made by humans, especially the
BLOOD, liver, and organs of animals. The evil utukku are
the ekimmu and the good ones are the shedu.
Ukobach Low-ranking DEMON who invented fireworks
and the art of frying food. Ukobach appears with an
inflamed body. BEELZEBUB assigns him to tend the oil in
the cauldrons of HELL. He throws burning coals on the
souls of the damned or tortures them with flames. In lore,
Ukobach is the lamp oil for the jack-o’-lantern.
Um Es Sibyan Arabian DEMON who, as does LILITH, preys
upon newborn children. Um Es Sibyan has the body of a
chicken, the face of a human, and the chest of a camel. She
flies through the air at night crying, “Warh, warh warh.”
The sound is a death omen to any child who hears it. Parents
can ward off the demon by sounding, “Tchlok, tchlok,
tchlok” until it passes by.
Uriel DEMON and wandering duke of the air. Uriel has 10
chief dukes and 100 underdukes with numerous servants.
They are evil, false, and deceitful, and reluctant to obey the
commands of an EXORCIST. They appear in the form of a
SERPENT with a virgin’s head and face. The 10 chief dukes
are Chabri, Drabros, Nartniel, Frasmiel, Brymiel, Dragon,
260
Curtnas, Draplos, Hermon, and Aldrusy. Uriel is also the
name of an archangel.
Usiel DEMON among the 31 AERIAL SPIRITS OF SOLOMON.
Usiel rules as a prince in the northwest under the command
or AMENADIEL. He has 40 dukes in the daytime and
40 at night, plus their many servants. All are obedient.
According to King SOLOMON, Usiel and his demons have
more power to hide and discover treasure than any other
spirits. His main 14 dukes of the day are Abariel, Ameta,
Amen, Heme, Saefer, Potiel, Saefam, Magni, Amandiel,
Barsu, Gamasu, Hissain, Fabariel, and Usiniel. His main

Usiel (Uziel, Uzziel) FALLEN ANGEL who is also good. In
kabbalistic lore, Usiel is a fallen angel who married women
and begat giants. (See WATCHERS.) In the Sefer Raziel, Usiel
is a good angel who is among the seven who stand before
the throne of God and the nine who are set over the four
winds.
Uzza (Ouza, Semyaza, Uzzah) FALLEN ANGEL. Uzza
means “strength.” In 3 Enoch, Uzza is named as one of
three primary ministering angels with Azael and Azza,
who live in the seventh (highest) heaven (probably prior to
their fall). The three object to the elevation of the prophet
Enoch into the great angel Metatron and are cast out of
heaven as punishment.
Uzza also is a tutelary spirit of Egypt.
