30 Day VILLAINS challenge, day 17: Satan, Demons and devils (and lords of the underworld)

Welcome to another 30 day challenge which in honor of spooky season will cover the topic of Pop Culture Villains!

Todays topic deals with what is often seen as the very face of evil itself, namely demons, devils, and Lucifer himself. And so, whether we’re talking demonic possession, devious soul-coveting corruptors, or Burning Chaotic Legions of burly horned pink dudes running wild on Azeroth, Mars, or across the warhammerverse, the main prompt of today is: What are the best and worst demonic villains in pop culture? As well as satan/hell flavored characters such as Disney’s take on Hades, as seen in the header there.

Bonus prompt: Least intimidating/effective demonic villains?

Maniacal prompt: Do you prefer demons as more physical or psychological threats?

Machiavellian Prompt: Best and worst takes on Hell in general?
