Verbis Diabolo language

Verbis Diabolo, also known as Verbis Diablo, is a language created by David J. Peterson for the Showtime and Sky Atlantic series Penny Dreadful. It is used in magic and spellcraft. While Verbis Diabolo, meaning "from the words from the Devil" in Latin, is the name Peterson uses, the series instead uses the name Verbis Diablo, which does not mean anything in Latin. Peterson had no involvement in the writing system featured in the show, which is gibberish. Furthermore, he was only involved in the Verbis Diabolo dialogue featured in the show's second season, and not in the dialogue featured in the third season.
