This article is about the fictional character. For the musical projects, see Drew McDowall. For the mixtapes, see DJ Screw.
Screwtape appears as a fictional demon in The Screwtape Letters (first published in The Guardian 1941, collected and published in book form 1942) and in its sequel short story Screwtape Proposes a Toast (1959), both written by the Christian author C. S. Lewis. Screwtape is also the title of the stage adaptation of the Letters by James Forsyth (originally Dear Wormwood, 1961).
Screwtape holds the rank of Senior Tempter and serves as the Undersecretary of his department in what Lewis envisages as a sort of infernal Civil Service. The Screwtape Letters represent his side of the correspondence with his nephew Wormwood, as mentor to the young demon who is charged with the guidance of one man. He has a secretary called Toadpipe. The Toast is Screwtape's after-dinner speech at the Tempters' Training College and satirises American and British or English public education.
Screwtape appears to understand very well the nature of human minds and human weaknesses, although nothing about human love. He also has a way with words and a fondness for sarcasm.
