Abstract
The article is devoted to the comparative analysis of demonic images and plots in the works of Pushkin and Lermontov about the Demon and in the series “Lucifer” by Netflix. Perhaps this topic goes beyond the scope of scientific discourse, but now the series enjoys such popularity that it has become perhaps the most binged show. This explains the decision of the author of the article to draw parallels between literary masterpieces and not their film adaptations, but a product of popular culture. Of course, the creators of the series did not read Russian literature, but typological similarities are obvious and can be revealed. As a result of the analysis, the series “Lucifer” can be understood as a completely human story of “the most dysfunctional family in the universe”. Our interpretation throws light on it in the aspects of rethinking biblical motives, the provisions of the Christian faith and literary tradition.
