    Gameplay

    MediEvil: Resurrection

    An Adventurer's Guide to Monsters entry

    These maniacal little beasties skulk within the corn fields waiting for the foolish and unwary adventurer to enter their domain. Should they detect any intruders, their frightening speed and gleeful ruthlessness will ensure their victim receives a messy and instantaneous death, plus a future as nothing more than crop fertiliser. No one has ever managed to kill a Wheat Demon, and it's probably best not to try.[3][3.1]

    MediEvil (2019 remake)

    Book of Gallowmere entry

    These dreaded corn stalkers are utterly silent, totally invisible and 100% deadly.

    They're also just about the cheapest solution a time-strapped video game developer could ever conceive to stop the player going where they're not wanted. Rejoice![4][4.1]

    Behind the scenes

    Etymology

    Wheat Daemons

    The words "dæmon" and "daimōn" are Latinized versions of the Greek "δαίμων" ("godlike power, fate, god"), a reference to the daemons of ancient Greek religion and mythology, as well as later Hellenistic religion and philosophy.
