The Bible speaks of “the everlasting fire prepared for the Devil and his angels.” (Mat 25:41)Also, “the one called Devil and Satan, . . . he was hurled down to the earth, and his angels were hurled down with him.” (Rev 12:9)So the consesnus here, I believe is that the Devil's angels are not demons.
