Maniae

Maniae

In Ancient Greek mythology, the Maniae or Maniai are the spirit or spirits of madness. Later poets also used the singular form (Mania), considering her as an independent personification of insanity, madness, and frenzied delusion, symbolizing various forms of mental disturbance such as hysteria, delirium, delusion, obsession, and possession. The Maniae are also associated with the Erinyes, the three fearsome goddesses of vengeance.
