The Red Dragon has been variously treated as a grimoire, a piece of folk literature, and a joke manuscript; it comprises one part of what is loosely termed 'The Grand Grimoire'- a collection of magickal works from the Renaissance such as the Black Pullet and Lesser Keys of Solomon. The Red Dragon however bears the title 'Grand Grimoire' on its own. Multiple editions of it exist, some with material tacked on. It takes the form of a long ritualistic ceremony designed to secure communication with a demon known as 'Lucifuge Rofocale' followed by various invocations and incantations and spells. The contents are heretical in the extreme, from rituals involving boiling a black cat to the use of toxic substances in ritual form. Small wonder, that this text has gained so much notoreity.“Red Dragon” By Thomas Harris 5 5 # # # Sunset on Sugarloaf, the herons still and the red sun swelling.

The Grand Grimoire Chapter I This Book is so rare and sought after in our country it has been called, by our Rabbis, the true Great Work. They were the ones who left us this precious original that many charlatans uselessly wanted to counterfeit, attempting to imitate the truth that they never found, in order to swindle ingenuous individuals.
The Grand Grimoire is a black magic[1]grimoire. Different editions date the book to 1521, 1522 or 1421, but it was probably written in the early 19th century.[2][3]Owen Davies suggests 1702 is when the first edition may have created and a Bibliothèque bleue version of the text may have been published in 1750.[4] The 'introductory chapter'[5] was authored by someone named Antonio Venitiana del Rabina who supposedly gathered this information from original writings of King Solomon.[6] Much of material in this grimoire derives from the Key of Solomon and the Lesser Key of Solomon.[7] Also known as Le Dragon Rouge or The Red Dragon, this book contains instructions purported to summon Lucifer or Lucifuge Rofocale, for the purpose of forming a Deal with the Devil. The 19th century French occultistÉliphas Lévi (author of Dogme et rituel de la haute magie) believed the contemporary edition of Le Dragon Rouge to be counterfeit of the true, older Grand Grimoire.[8]
The work is divided into two books.[2] The first book contains instructions for summoning a demon and for the construction of tools with which to force the demon to do one's bidding. The second book is further divided into two parts: the Sanctum Regnum and Secrets, de L'Art Magique du Grand Grimoire ('Secrets, of the magic art of the Grand Grimoire'). The Sanctum Regnum contain instructions for making a pact with the demon, allowing one to command the spirit without the tools required in book one, but at greater risk. Secrets contains simpler spells and rituals one can employ after having performed the ritual in the first book. Some editions contain a short text between these two parts, Le Secret Magique, où le Grand Art de pouvoir parler aux Morts (The Magic Secret, or the Grand Art of being able to speaking with the dead), dealing with necromancy.
The book describes several demons as well as the rituals to summon them in order to make a pact with them. It also details several spells for winning the lottery, talking to spirits, being loved by a girl, making oneself invisible, etc.[9]
The Demons[edit]

- Beelzebub, prince
- Astaroth, grand duke
It also mentions six lower demons:[10]
- Lucifuge Rofocale, prime minister
- Satanachia, commander in chief (in French, 'commandant en chef', although Warwick translates it as 'great general')[12]
- Agaliarept, commandant
- Fleurety, lieutenant-general
- Sargatanas, brigadier-major
- Nebiros, marshal and inspector general ('camp marshal' in Warwick's translation)[12]
In popular culture[edit]
Fantasy author Lin Carter uses the word 'karcist' as a synonym for 'magician' or 'sorcerer' in several of his works, citing the Grand Grimoire as a source. In Thongor in the City of Magicians, Carter's 'karcist' is a mage requested to serve as 'controller' of a magic ritual enacted by a cabal of his colleagues.
In the video game Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, the Grand Grimoire is a magical book that survived the Flood on Noah's Ark, but whose value was forgotten. The book is later found by one of the game's main characters, Mewt Randell, in a used book shop. The book's power transports the game's protagonists to Ivalice, a fictional universe used as a setting for other Final Fantasy games as well.
In the 1989 motion picture Warlock, actor Julian Sands plays a warlock trying to find the three Grand Grimoires, which when combined purportedly contain the name of God. In the film the book has supernatural properties, and is therefore separated into three sets of pages to prevent its evil power from being abused.
In James H. Brennan's Sagas of the Demonspawn series, Lucifuge Rofocale is the name of the demon incarnated in the sword named Doom Bringer. According to the Grand Grimoire, Lucifuge Rofocale is the demon in charge of Hell's government.
Dutch metal band God Dethroned have an album called The Grand Grimoire (1997).

In the 2012 video game Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, a book called the Grand Grimoire contains all of the black magic within the town of Labyrinthia, and is used by Phoenix Wright to point out contradictions and illogical aspects in accusations of witchcraft.
