Indeed. The Celtic pantheon of nature spirits remains a dismal parody of 
its formal self with just a few faeries, leprechauns and of course the 
Morrigan.

I cant see how Hinduism  could have a pantheon. At its core its mostly 
philosophy.

I always thought that their gods were understood to be symbols, nor 'real'

Well traditionally necromancy texts were written in Hebrew or Latin, as 
there was a close association between the religion and its antithesis.🙂

Although IIRC HP Lovecraft had a mad Arab somewhere on his demonology. 
Abdul Alhazred, creator of the Necronomicon.

I mean it wouldn't make good drama  for our Harry to mutter ' I say 
great spiwwit, turn Malfoy into a spotted toad'

Clever people spoke Latin or Greek, back in the day.
