Sorry if someone has already spoken of this in a post but I found it very interesting. In Episode 9 of “Haunted Hotel” we are told by the Assyrian demon possessing the Mailman that Abaddon is of the Gerasenes. I would expect that this is a direct reference to the Biblical story of the Gerasene Demoniac. The story follows a man (or 2 depending on the version) possessed by a Demonic Legion who lives among the tombs and cuts himself with the stones surrounding him because he cannot be chained down by the people for very long at least. Needless to say, Jesus shows up and exorcises/casts out the legion into a herd of pigs who immediately rush down the steep bank of the hillside and drown themselves in the sea.
Why is this important? This explains why Abaddon is so persistent on proving himself whether it be a game of Connect Four or restoring the roof to the snow globe (not to mention consistently able to break away from restraints). The Gerasene Legion as a whole are failures as demons and what do they do when they fail? Drown themselves. It just puts a deeper layer of meaning to Abaddon sitting at the bottom of a lake for 2 days and even his love of bones as the possessed hung around the tombs. It also makes him even more of a tragic character as it frames why hell hasn’t come for him if he has consistently failed them.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk 😂😉
