The demon-locusts from the fifth Trumpet Judgment (the first woe) in Revelation 9:1-11 are demons that take the form of locusts; however, with bodies like horses, hair like women, faces like men, teeth like lions, and scorpion-like tails. In fact, they might not look anything like locusts at all, and rather be described as being like locusts because of their swarming movement and large number.
Books[]
Apollyon: the Destroyer is Unleashed[]
In this book, they are led by the fallen angel Apollyon, which could definitely be Satan. They go out and sting those who don't have the seal of God on their forehead. It is unknown why they are attacking their own team, but it is known that this is the most common behavior when it comes to the action of demons.
They chant "Abaddon" — the name of their leader.
In Left Behind: The Kids book 20 A Dangerous Plan, Global Community workers erect an "electric shield" around hospitals and government buildings that prevents the locusts from entering the premises.
