ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Nicolas Remy

Nicolas Remy was a person who lived a long time ago, in a time when people dressed differently and did things differently than we do now. Nicolas Remy was a man who studied and wrote about things like magic and witchcraft. He wrote a book called "Demonolatry", which talked about how to recognize and fight against people who were believed to be witches. Back then, people were very afraid of witches because they believed that they could do bad things to them. Nicolas Remy's book was important because it was one of the first books to talk about witches in a very detailed way, and helped people understand what they were and how to protect themselves from them. Today, we don't really believe in witches like they did back then, but Nicolas Remy's book is still studied by people who are interested in history and how people used to think.
