Lilith (LIL-ith) is a demon from the Babylonian Talmud. In a later version she is said to be the first wife of Adam. In ancient Assyria she was called Lilitu and described as a demoness with wings and a hairy body, much like the djinn of Arabic lore.
"From the earliest records of man, there is a story of an ancient being that preyed upon children."
