Check the official store first
The Steam store page is the most reliable place to check for a public PC demo. At the time of this guide's review, the official listing presents the full game and Deluxe Edition rather than a separate Download Demo entry.
Demo versus early access
A demo is normally a limited, separately labelled trial. The official launch announcement described a four-day Digital Deluxe early-access window before the public launch; that was paid access to the full game, not a free demo.
Avoid unofficial downloads
Do not download a file described as a demo unless it is linked by the official Steam page, the official Halloween site, or an approved console storefront. A convention build or a gameplay video is not a public download.
