Alexis-Vincent-Charles Berbiguier de Terre-Neuve du Thym (1765 – December 3, 1851) was a French author and demonologist who may have been suffering from psychosis. He was born, and died, in Carpentras in the south of France, and was the heir to an estate, which he used to finance the publication of his unusual memoirs. He is remembered chiefly for his lengthy autobiography, Les farfadets ou Tous les démons ne sont pas de l'autre monde ("The Imps; or, All the demons are not from the other world"), originally published in three volumes between 1818 and 1820. The book was handsomely illustrated by a series of lithographs whose originals were sketched by Berbiguier himself.

  • Alexis Vincent Charles Berbiguier de Terre-Neuve du Thym, né le 3 juillet 1764 à Carpentras où il est mort le 3 décembre 1851, est l'auteur d'une vaste autobiographie en trois volumes et 274 chapitres intitulée Les farfadets ou Tous les démons ne sont pas de l'autre monde.
