Parademons
In the second official trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, it seemed that those flying humanoid objects were helping Batman during his nightmare. However, upon closer inspection and a freeze-frame, we see that they are pretty much attacking anything and everything. Batman’s just lucky that he’s not the focus of their attention at the moment. These creatures also look like giant insects. Could these be the live-incarnation of the Parademons? If they are, then it can mean only one thing: Darkseid’s presence.
