About this list

Demonic possession is a topic addressed by various religions and cultures worldwide. An alarming number of demons contribute to the world's troubles. Some rule in hell, while others stir up trouble on Earth for amusement. The vilest creatures take control of humans, turning their world upside-down. When people hear 'possession,' Satan comes to mind, but many other demons are more likely to possess people, according to lore. Demonic possession takes time - allegedly, a demon haunts and oppresses its target for months, wearing them down physically, mentally, and spiritually. This breaks the target's will, allowing the demon to take over. Then, the havoc begins. This list highlights some of the worst demons to be possessed by and how they can wreck your life.

He then perfected the method demons use now. Azazel enjoys killing those near him. He prefers setting up situations that look impossible for someone to survive instead of killing them himself.
