Antichrist characters have been the continuing subject of speculation and attraction, often explored in fiction and media, and the character has developed his own sort of fictional mythology apart from biblical scripture. For example, the Book of Revelation does not say the Antichrist will be the son of Satan, but the idea was made popular in at least two movies, ''The Omen'', and its sequels, with the evil child, Damien, who grows up with the destiny to rule and destroy the world, and ''Rosemary's Baby'' with her son, Adrian. == Portrayals == Antichrist characters portrayed in fiction and nonfiction include: *A nameless leader that assumes the reinstituted office of Roman Emperor, in ''The Tale of Anti-Christ'' by Vladimir Solovyov *Jake Gray in ''Devour'' *Jesse, a human/demon hybrid in the ''Supernatural'' episode "I Believe the Children Are Our Future", is confirmed as the Antichrist by the angel Castiel.
