Peter Fabell

Peter Fabell or Fabel (fl. 15th century) was a reputed English magician who lived in Edmonton. A literary figure during the 16th and 17th century, he is considered by David Kathman to have been a historical figure, whatever the accretion of folklore to his name.[1] He appears as the protagonist in the play The Merry Devil of Edmonton, printed 1608.
