Relating to daemons; having a supernatural, evil, or possess-like quality.
From daemon with the suffix -ic (possessing the quality of). Originally neutral in Greek philosophy, it became associated with evil in Christian contexts.
The shift from daemonic (neutral spirit) to daemonic (evil) happened because Christians reinterpreted pagan spirits as demons—the same word got a major personality change!
