Word origin

The word 'pandemonium' originated from Greek mythology. It was coined by John Milton in his epic poem 'Paradise Lost' to describe the capital of Hell, the place where all demons gather. The term has since evolved to refer to a state of wild and noisy disorder or confusion, often used in literary and dramatic contexts to evoke chaos and uproar.
