The Mignolaverse is a fictional occult universe created by Mike Mignola, centered on Hellboy, a demon summoned by Nazis in 1944, and the B.P.R.D. (Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense). It blends folklore, Lovecraftian horror, and apocalyptic prophecy, culminating in the Ogdru Jahad's Ragna Rok.
Nazi occultists, led by Grigori Rasputin, perform a ritual on Tarmagant Island to summon the Ogdru Jahad, but instead bring a small demon child to Earth. The Allies, including Professor Trevor Bruttenholm, discover the infant, who is named Hellboy. #occult #wwii
