The word was first used in the 17th century and is derived from John Miltons epic poem "Paradise Lost" (1667). In the poem, "Pandæmonium" (note the spelling difference) is the name of the capital city of Hell, built by the fallen angels after they were cast out of Heaven.

The word "Pandæmonium" is composed of two Greek words: "pan" meaning "all" and "daimon" meaning "demon." Therefore, "Pandæmonium" means "all demons" or "a gathering of all demons."
