Aren't the "Voidwoken" the equivalent of demons?

Not sure. Voidwoken seem to be animals that have been incredibly beefed up and posessed.

Which some should call demonic possession. I can understand that when its normal animals being effected but there are fully fleshed void creatures that spawn from the use of source magic - they are the ones I refer to.

I refer to something more akin to the Demon of Lies.

Ah maybe, after hearing the origin stories I recon we will run into some special demons in some forms.

I believe one of the messages that appear during the loading screen goes like this:

Always keep an eye out for new and interesting gear. A demon will make short work of an old, rusty sword.


Since they specifically use the word demon I personally believe they eventually will show up. Otherwise, why wouldn't they just have used 'monster'?

Probably yes based on the behind the scenes videos
In one of the kickstarter updates one member of the team was working on the model for a unit called the "Demon caster."
and the origin character backstories
Red Prince was banished for cavorting with demons and Lohse is possessed by... something.

I would really love it if Lohse was possessed by the Trife.

Didn't we have part of the map occupied by demons, because of some demonic heart or so, which you needed to destroy?

Yes, D:OS1 was full of demons.

What do you excactly mean with demons? Maybe demons in DOS are evil spirits, in the primitive sense invented by Christianity? Or just otherwordly entities?

There are at least some demons in the game, they call themselves "gods". A demon in the original sense is a certain higher power or ghostly incarnation, good or bad.
