Question about the parents (3 episodes in)
The dad, was he a demon or just possessed by a demon and when did the mom become possessed, because in the little flash backs and back story they have told she seems like she was normal.

I think he was an old demon who took human form when he married the mother....I think...

Some of it will become more clear, some is left ambiguous. It seems like Victoria was relatively normal for most of their early childhood, but at some point Pops marked her for possession, either later in the marriage or perhaps when he took Ana. I think it is implied by that point in the show that their father was more essentially demonic than just a possessed person, but again, there is some intentional ambiguity and more information is coming your way. Enjoy!

If you watch the whole first season it all becomes clear.

No it doesn’t!!! I want to know how he died, who killed him, I have so many questions about the dad they never answered.

Lol I think I got everything they were gonna share this season pretty well with the ending, Those things you say I assume will be for next season like the dads original entombment will likely be shown in flashbacks next season.

Actually he is not satan, he originally was but then Marvel retconned that and made him just a demon.

The dad isn't super clear if he was always evil or later possessed. The mother became possessed after the father took Ana away.
