Hades In Greek mythology, the god who rules the underworld of the dead. Hades is the son of the Titans Cronus and Rhea. With one of his brothers, Zeus, he plots to overthrow their father Cronus, the god of time. Hades; Zeus, god of Olympus; and another brother, Poseidon, god of the sea, drew lots to divide up the world, and Hades fared the worst, getting the underworld.

Hades seeks to increase the population of his kingdom and prevent anyone from leaving. The gates of his abode, also called Hades, are guarded by the three-headed dog CERBERUS. Hades’ wife is Persephone, whom he abducted to the underworld.

Hades also is the god of wealth, because of the precious metals mined from the earth; he is also called Pluto (the rich one or the hidden one).

Christopher Haizmann was seized with an “unnatural convulsion” on August 29, 1677. He went to the police and asked for protection, claiming that nine years earlier, he had sold his soul to SATAN. The police granted his request.

Haizmann wrote and illustrated the story of his infernal pact. He stated that the Devil one day had appeared to him as a burgher with a large black dog and asked him why he was distressed and sad. “He would help me out of my distress if I were willing to subscribe myself in ink to him to be his son; he would assist and help me in every possible way,” Haizmann wrote.

He has a helmet that makes him invisible.
