Demonic ("Demoníaco" in the original version) is a Portuguese web series created for Dragonfly Studios, written and produced by Alexandre Silva, Emanuel Sequeira and Raquel Silva and confirmed to be based on factual events. The series follows the anthology mold popularized by the American television shows as American Horror Story and Scream Queens, where the series' story line, characters and scenarios change every season to form a miniseries, sometimes tangling the plot of previous seasons.
The series was set to premiere on September 12, 2016, however, it was latter postponed to September 11, 2017 due to the studios' initial lack of interest on the show. The first season takes place at the fictional St. George's High School and follows a series of mysterious murders targeting some of the high school's students.
Despite not airing until late 2017, Dragonfly Studios has already renewed the series for a second season to air in 2018.
