Pagan Regeneration is a book by Harold R. Willoughby, first published in 1929. Subtitled 'A Study of Mystery Initiations in the Graeco-Roman World', this work uses classical historical methodology to give a profound exposé of the ancient religions of Rome and Greece.

His work aims to reveal what can be known of the mysteries and secret rites of these ancient religions.
