"The Devil and Tom Walker" is a short story which is written by Washington Irving that initially showed up in his 1824 accumulation Tales of a Traveler, as a component of the "Money Diggers" segment. The story is fundamentally the same as the German legend of Faust. Stephen Vincent Benét drew quite a bit of his motivation for "The Devil and Daniel Webster " from this story.
