14. Onoskelis
Onoskelis is a demon that only appears in female form and was first introduced to the world of demonology in the Testament of Solomon where she is described as a beautiful fair-skinned woman but with a scary, freaky disability: she has the legs of a mule. As for her purpose and intentions? We’re afraid that we have some bad news for men. See, Onoskelis enjoys activities such as strangling men to death and when she’s in a better mood, she likes to “pervert [men] from their true natures”…whatever that means.

This weird demon with an even weirder appearance comes from Indonesia and is, according to Javanese religion, a swine demon that looks like (what else) a wild pig. According to the local theological beliefs, the demon is associated with people who practice black magic with the goal of becoming filthy rich overnight. The price of this, however, is awfully high: they must give up their human form and allow the demon to transform them into a boar for a short time, or the ones who are luckier (maybe?) get to keep their human appearance but the demon possesses their souls.
So, next time any of you are waiting in line to pig out in a fast-food restaurant, beware of the swine demon that waits in the corner to possess your greedy belly.
