Demonic Marketing

posted by Jaye Wells at 11:59 PM


Sometimes, when I feel like my evilness quotient is slipping, I like to surround myself with demonic marketing gimmicks and foodstuffs.

For example, I have a framed version of this poster hanging in my living room. Yes, I'm a sucker for demonic art, especially when it combines alcohol and French--the official language of evil.

But many option exist when it comes to demon-themed products. Witness the following...if you dare! (insert evil laugh)

From Lush bath products, we have Demon in the Dark , which is a "minty and mysterious body soap to tingle sluggish skin."

What could be tastier than a Demon Pig? Well, now there's a sauce for all your evil BBQ needs.

For those who prefer their food to taste like burning hellfire, Demon Ichor is the sauce for you.

And how about a Satan Red beer to wash down all that brimstone?

Last, but certainly not least, the classics: Deviled eggs and ham.

What's your favorite demon themed marketing gimmick?

Hey Jaye, who knew there were so many avenues into hell? Demon themes? Commercials for Christian Rock--Stadium Rock. I bring it on myself watching the Hallmark channel, but boy those things are dangerous.

I'm a huge sucker for Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab which has, in addition to demonic themed perfumes (in the Diabolus section), perfumes for pretty much every Goth/fantasy/mythological/literary figure ever. (My favourite perfumes are Alice --- from the Wonderland books, Rose Red, Persephone, and Imp.)

Kathie, the Christian rock commercials kill me.

JJ, I love Black Alchemy Lab! I haven't ordered anything yet, but I love scrolling through their scent descriptions. Cool site.

Laughingwolf, Regis is rather impish.

Hey you guys are too funny! Kathy and Cruise Line of Satan. Now, FINALLY, the Love Boat show makes sense... And I too love Black Phoenix Alchemy! Love to read their descriptions!

For the demons ads I will submit to you Great Lakes Brewery's Nosferatu beer, and Stone IPA's Ruination and Arrogant Bastard. Love the demons in their advertising! My favorite to drink is the Russian Imperial Stout--love dark beer--but the others have cooler demons on them.

todd- lmao! - my knee jerk reaction was anything Oprah or Martha Stewart... I'm fairly certain they have signed deals to each rule their own levels and hell.

My addiction to BPAL (as us Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab afficionados call it) knows no bounds. I've amassed quite a collection and I've only been dabbling with their perfumes for a little over a year. They're incredible! Service is great, there is a forum for us fans to post and shoot the breeze about life and occult things, and the perfumes themselves are a work of art.

Before there was Red Bull, there was Red Devil. It was sold at a single Amoco station on Route One in Jessup, MD.

I'm pretty sure it contained pituitary gland.

There were the ill-named INCUBUS sneakers, before the people in charge realized that they were selling tennis shoes that were named after demons of sex. Hee hee hee...
