Could Sakuya Kira's deal with Lucifer be material for this article (although the deal was for Lucifer to inhabit his body instead of getting his soul)?

Accusatory vs Proclamative Character Omitted

There is insufficient attention being paid, in this page, to whether these folks subsequently burned (as for witchcraft) actually originated the materials (e.g. a written pact as in the case of Urbain Grandier) ascribed to them; ostensibly this is a longstanding propaganda campaign targetting victims employing farce and contrivance, directing the fear by the gullible to perpetrate violence upon them.

Tommy Johnson not Robert

Robert Palmer (the journalist/writer, not the musician) perpetrated the lie that it was Robert Johnson who claimed to have sold his soul to the Devil. Actually the claim was made by 'Tommy' Johnson, and this is well-known. Robert Johnson played and popularized recordings of his song Crossroads and this was misunderstood by potentially well-meaning fans, some of whom even made movies about the story, but Palmer actually tarnished his own reputation through his publishing and blues scholars are aware of this error.
