- Not to be confused with Flame Elemental.
Efreet is an enemy in the Castlevania series. It is a monster enveloped entirely in flames. Uses its complete control of this fire to attack.
Origins
The Efreet (or Ifrit) is a jin-like being and also held to be a death spirit drawn to the life-force of a murdered victim seeking revenge on the murderer.
As with ordinary djinn, an efreet may be either a believer or an unbeliever, good or evil, but it is most often depicted as a wicked, ruthless and evil being. Efreets are believed to inhabit the layers of the underworld or desolated places on the surface, such as in ruins or caves. According to Islamic sources, efreet are a fiery appearance with flames leaping from his mouth and may endanger people, but can be destroyed if someone recites a Islamic prayer near it.
For Christians, making the sign of the cross also let the Ifrit disappear. In folklore, they are commonly thought to take the shape of the deceased at the moment of death, or the appearance of Satan.
