The Lost Sinner is the Witch of Izalith. No I'm not making an assumption, or stating a theory. The Collector's Edition Strategy guide calls the Lost Sinner out as the Witch of Izalith. It is not infered that it's her, it flat out says "the Witch of Izalith". Note that it also says "THE Witch fo Izalith" and not "A Witch of Izalith". Supposedly she placed herself in the shackles and straight jacket to punish herself. But yes, I assume that bug is also the centipede demon, only further hinting at the identity of the Lost Sinner.

I assume it merely means that it is the soul of the Witch, but this still upsets me.
