Joseph-Antoine Boullan

Abbé Joseph-Antoine Boullan (Saint-Porquier, Tarn-et-Garonne, 18 February 1824 – 4 January 1893, Lyon) was a French Roman Catholic priest and later a laicized priest, who is often accused of being a Satanist although he continued to defend his status as a Christian.

He was a friend and inspiration of the writer Joris-Karl Huysmans.[1][2] Huysmans with Henri Antoine Jules-Bois supported Boullan in a celebrated occultist feud with the Marquis Stanislas de Guaita.[3]
