Dans cet ouvrage, Francesco Maria Guazzo décrit onze formules ou cérémonies, préliminaires à la servitude de Satan, qu'il aurait été nécessaire de pratiquer pour participer au sabbat.

Il y décrit également en détails les relations sexuelles entre les hommes et les succubes ainsi que celles entre les femmes et les incubes.

Guazzo s'inspire également des travaux de Michel Psellos pour classifier les démons.
