Society of the Exterminating Angel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Society of the Exterminating Angel was a possibly apocryphal[1] Catholic group in Spain that was created to kill Spanish liberals, founded in 1821. It was revived in 1834 under the presidency of the Bishop of Osma.[2]
The film The Exterminating Angel, by Luis Buñuel, may have been named after this society.[3]
