Christian School Bans K-Pop 'Demon Hunters' Songs Over Faith Concerns

On November 18, 2025, it was reported that a Christian school in Dorset, England has barred its students from singing along to the popular K-Pop film 'Demon Hunters'. The Lilliput Church of England Infant School, which caters to children aged 4 to 7, cited concerns from some members of the community who are "deeply uncomfortable" with the song lyrics' references to demons.

In a letter to parents, the acting head teacher Lloyd Allington explained that for some Christians, even fictional depictions of demons can conflict with their faith, which emphasizes rejecting evil. The school aims to foster its "Christian ethos" and help students understand that their peers may hold different views on such themes.

However, the school also acknowledged receiving positive feedback from some parents, who said the 'Demon Hunters' songs encourage values like teamwork and kindness. The school reassured that it is not asking parents to tell their children the film or its music is wrong, but rather to explore how to respectfully support those with differing beliefs.

The 'Demon Hunters' film, released earlier this year, has become a global phenomenon, earning multiple Grammy nominations and becoming Netflix's most-watched original title. The school's decision to restrict students from singing the hit songs has sparked discussion around balancing religious sensitivities with artistic expression.
