The "Dictionary of Gods & Goddesses, Devils & Demons" provides a lot of research material. If you're trying to find information on monsters of legends and folklore this will be a great book for you. There were some obscure characters that I found some information on, like the Alp or also known as the Drude, the witch of nightmares.
