Azazel

"In the Hebrew Bible, the name Azazel represents a desolate place where a scapegoat bearing the sins of the Jews was sent during Yom Kippur. During the late Second Temple period (after the closure of the Hebrew Bible canon), Azazel came to be viewed as a fallen angel responsible for introducing humans to forbidden knowledge, as described in the Book of Enoch. His role as a fallen angel partly remains in Christian and Islamic traditions." [Azazel, Wikipedia]

At Dunwich Village in 1747, the Rev. Abijah Hoadley preached that the cursed voices of Azazel and other demons had been heard from underground. [HPL Dunwich (online text); AWD Watchers]

The Bishop Azédarac had subterraneous connections with Azazel and the Old Ones. [CAS Holiness (online text)]
