Demons in the Bible

Satan was referred to as Belial in the book of Judges.

No one's worshipping that statue

Did you seriously use BCE and CE in your image…

Except for places like India and Latin America where people literally honor fictional saints like Santa Muerte as idols; the World may have outgrown the fleshly mindset of worshipping fictional creations that represent power over the elements, but the fleshly principle of "give me this, Oh great thing in front of my eyes" remains, with the demons moving the hearts of many towards the sins of idolatry and coveting.
Moloch and Mammon are pretty much interchangeable in our modern society; like women sacrificing unborn children for their career. Moloch represents the hidden evils that people do with money in the high places as well as the destructive aspects of desiring money, while Mammon represents the desire for more money.
The fallacy of unlimited economic growth, the perpetual bull, is an idol that leads many companies towards cutting costs, ignoring consumer demands, mismanaging brands with poor quality products, and withholding wages from their employees(James 5:4).
Even though nobody directly worships the statue itself, there is still wickedness in the high places.

Psalm 96:5 (LXX): "All the gods of the nations are demons".
Justin Jones
They aren’t absent in the Old Testament. There is an incident at the end of numbers, and there is a very weird summoning the dead seance this scene just prior to the death of Saul in (1 Samuel I believe, or maybe beginning of 2 Samuel?) David goes off to pray and fast and consult with the Lord, Saul goes to a witch and summons the dead.
I also have not quite finished Old Testament just yet , but there are at least a few incidents , and the one in numbers especially is referenced elsewhere a lot more times than just the time there.

Thank catholicism for not genociding the native when they had the chance and for being indifferent with it's heresy.

It's Psalm 95 though. 96 is from the MT.
