    FOLKLORE---Demonology is NOT a SCIENCE, it is a BELIEF.

    Mythology.  Which is folklore, not science.

    I've answered a question recently with facts from anthropology, i.e., the relatively small number of cultures that have a belief in demonic possession. If there is such a thing, we would expect belief in all cultures or at least the great majority.

    It can't be a field of science, because it's not falsifiable.

    Non-science, and indeed nonsense.

    The "Defunct ideas landfill" of science, where it got scrapped with alchemy and suchlike.

    Demonology is more of a theological subject or maybe philosophical. Pseudoscience, but that's a stretch.
