More like Lucifer
Cross-media recommendations across film, TV, games, books & music — picked by taste.
Lucifer trades on a simple but irresistible inversion: the devil walks away from eternal punishment, opens a nightclub in Los Angeles, and starts consulting with a homicide detective. What makes it stick is the tension between the supernatural and the procedural — the threat of Hell's worst escaping and the day-to-day business of human crime. If this mix of celestial mythology, urban noir, and a morally complicated protagonist who abandoned his throne appeals to you, the picks below trace the same fault lines across film, TV, games, and books.

Frequently asked
What should I watch after Lucifer?
Penny Dreadful: City of Angels is a strong next watch — it blends the supernatural with crime investigation in Los Angeles, much like Lucifer's mix of devilish mythology and LAPD casework. Paradise offers a similarly stylish murder mystery if you want less fantasy.
Are there games like Lucifer?
Lucifer Within Us is the closest match — a story-rich mystery game set in a world of daemonic possession where you unmask liars through deduction, echoing the show's detective-meets-supernatural premise. Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered is worth a look if you want hellish action with dark humour.
Are there books based on the same Lucifer character?
Yes — Lucifer, Book Two and Morningstar are graphic novels that follow the same Morningstar character the TV series drew from, tracing his attempts to build a new creation and the war in Heaven that follows.
