Lenglet-Dufresnoy's work deals with apparitions and demons, and includes reprints of curious pieces: Le Retour des Morts, ou Traité pieux, Qui prouve par plusieurs Histoires authentiques, que les Ames des Trépassés reviennent quelquefois par la permission de Dieu, published in Toulouse in 1694, Le Palais du prince du sommeil où est enseigné l'Oniromancie, published in Bourges in 1667, and others.
