Demon of the Himalayas (German: Der Dämon des Himalaya) is a 1935 German-Swiss co-production adventure film directed by Andrew Marton and starring Gustav Diessl, Erika Dannhoff, and Günter Oskar Dyhrenfurth. It is part of the Mountain film genre which was popular during the era.
Interior filming took place at the Grunewald Studios in Berlin with sets designed by the art directors Fritz Maurischat and Karl Weber.
