The Red Dragon, also known as "The Grand Grimoire" is a black magic tome believed to have originated in the early 19th century. This sinister book is notorious for its instructions on summoning Lucifuge Rofocale, enabling individuals to forge a Deal with the Devil.

Divided into two main sections, the first book provides guidance on summoning demons and crafting tools to control them.

The second book, divided into Sanctum Regnum and Secrets, delves deeper into the magic art. Sanctum Regnum offers methods for forming pacts with demons, granting control without the need for tools, albeit at greater risk. Meanwhile, Secrets unveils simpler spells and rituals to be utilized following the initial summoning ritual outlined in the first book.

Several versions of The Red Dragon exist with minor or significant differences. This is a new faithful English translation.
