Jules de Grandin is a fictional occult detective created by Seabury Quinn for Weird Tales. Assisted by Dr. Trowbridge (a Dr Watson-like figure), de Grandin fought ghosts, werewolves, satanists, etc. in over ninety stories between 1925 and 1951. Jules de Grandin and Dr. Trowbridge lived in Harrisonville, New Jersey. De Grandin was a French physician and expert on the occult, and member of the French Sûreté. Often, the supernatural entities in the mysteries are revealed not to be supernatural, but the actions of insane, evil, depraved human beings.

The entire series of stories has been reprinted in a three volume set called The Complete Adventures of Jules de Grandin.
