Does the Devil exists? Only God knows for sure. But judging by the evidence in this collection, Devilish Doings, if he doesn't exist, humanity needed to create him. The Devil is the apotheosis of all our dreadful thoughts and desires. We blame him for seducing us, forcing us to succumb- however willingly- to our most sordid impulses.

Collected in Devilish Doings are twenty tales by some of the world's most famous writers, as well as by anonymous storytellers, who have dabbled with the Dark One. The usual suspects are here as well as the unexpected. Niccolo Machiavelli- the famed author of that most diabolical political treatise, The Prince- is here with "Belphagor," his only work of fiction. That master of the macabre, Edgar Allan Poe, contributes "Bon-Bon" and Washington Irving, the author of "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" is here with "The Devil and Tom Walker," another timeless tale of Gothic Americana. So are J.S. Le Fanu, Nikolai Vasilevich Gogol, Charles Dickens, Stephen Benet and more.
