Invocation of the Beast

As with any demonic incarnation, the Pippi creature must first be summoned before it can take form in the physical world, or "become born" of the seed of man and angel. The invocation is precise and must be recited in the original Swedish to work. One American demonist, Fred Ladd, attempted to render the incantation in English, but the words of Jan Johansson and Konrad Elfers simply could not be translated with the demonic potency of the Swede tongue. What follows is the A Text, the earliest and most reliable of the English translations.

Freckles on her nose,
Diddle diddle dee, a girl came riding
Into town one day:
Diddle diddle she was quite a sight.

It's Pippi Longstocking;
Heigh ho ho wa hee ha ha!
It's Pippi Longstocking;
There's no one like her.

Happy as can be,
Diddle diddle, Pippi tells you stories.
You just wait and see,
Tra la la la la, she's quite a girl.

She's got a house,
An old and funny house,
A monkey and a horse,
A suitcase full of golden coins....

And you will ne-
Ver ever ever find
Another girl so strong
And always generous and kind.

Pippi's world is fun,
Diddle diddle dee; she makes kids happy.
Her make believe may stun--
Diddle did(dle)--the grownups here in town.

Pippi's quite unique,
Diddle diddle, with her smile disarming;
She is such an imp,
Tra la la la la, you'll love her too!

The implications of the verses are stark. Lines such as "freckles on her nose" (mark of the beast?), "Pippi tells you stories" (lies?) and "she is such an imp" (demon) proscribe any interpretation outside the Satanic. She speaks with beasts (monkeys and horses), tempts children away from their strong Swedish moral values with earthly delights and gold and torments her elders with her lies ("make believe").This establishes the base form of the Pippi incarnation, which is then expanded once the physical presence has been established.

Pippi is seen here cavorting with Mr. Nilsson, a physical manifestation of the fallen angel Nelchael, who teaches astronomy and mathematics to his fellow demons. Note Pippi's mechanical aptitude and ability to navigate the globe without the aid of maps.

Significant are the numerous occasions at which Pippi sings her own incantation, reaffirming her physical presence with such lines as, "I am Pippi Longstocking/that is who I am," and multiplying her demonic powers with the singing of spells. This, from the A Text, is a reaffirmation incantation:

I am Pippi Longstocking.
If you say it fast it's funny.
Pippi, Pippi Longstocking--
How I love my happy name.

[Note: In this stanza, Pippi not only reaffirms her physicality, but also reveals the hubris that characterizes the Evil One's fall from grace, as in, "How I love my happy name."]

I'm only nine.
I always live alone
Inside my papa's house
Until he comes back home from
Far off somewhere.

[Here Pippi reveals that she is in the ninth year of her thousand-year reign as the Antichrist, living in her "papa's house," or the earth, which is Satan's realm. She also prophecizes her "papa's" second coming, or the time of the Apocolypse, which she awaits, "alone" on her throne of dominion.]

I have special friends of course:
A monkey and a horse.
They share in my adventures too.

[Pippi reveals that it is with legions of beasts, such as monkeys and horses, that she will enslave mankind in her evil. Note that these beasts are "special."]

I am Pippi Longstocking.
If you say it fast it's funny.
Pippi, Pippi Longstocking--
How I love my funny name.

I am Pippi Longstocking.
If you say it fast it's funny.
Pippi, Pippi Longstocking--
How I love my funny name.

And here, from the B Text, Pippi uses Satanic verses to increase her powers to cause harm--even death--to her enemies, whose souls she will presumably devour in the process.

We're off to Pirate Island;
It's a merry song we're singing.
We're not afraid of pirates,
And we'll even leave them trembling.

[In this stanza, the unholy triad is journeying to "Pirate Island," or a place of great evil. They are not afraid of the evil, however, just as normal men are not afraid of air. It is what sustains them.]

Pippi's one they can't stop;
Those pirates should stop trying.
We'll smash them dead once again
And make those pirates cry.

[Remember that Pippi's father, by her own admission, is a cannibal king, so it is not out of character for her to turn on her own evil kind and devour their evil, increasing her own power as she does so.]

If those pirates trap us,
And they do their best to grab us,
We'll outsmart them, you'll see,
Tommy, Annika and me.

[The names of the Unholy ones are here listed together, a powerful incantation of the power of deception.]

Here comes Pippi Longstocking,
Hope and a heigh and a hope sha na.
Here comes Pippi Longstocking:
Watch out here I come.

[We cannot know, of course, the meaning of the second line of this stanza, as it is in an alien tongue. However, the implication is clear: Pippi has arrived, O ye foolish men, and you'd better watch out!]

Pippi is seen here riding Old Man (Obadon, the angel of the pit from Revelations 9:10?), accompanied by the other two sides of the Triad of Evil: Tommy and Annika. She walks in our midst now, people!

Later, once she has overcome the minor demons of Evil Island (namely, "200 reinforcements, 200 musket thunderguns and 1,000 rifles, swords and carbines"), she proclaims:

I am Pippi Longstocking,
Hope and a heigh and a hope sha na [q.v.].
I am Pippi Longstocking,
And I opened up the gate.
