Etymology

From demon + -ial (adjective suffix), directly from Latin daemon and Greek daimon. An alternative form to 'demonic'.

Kelly Says

This is a rarer, more archaic synonym for 'demonic'—you'll find it mostly in older theological texts and fantasy literature trying to sound appropriately ancient and mystical.
