The following verses are from Garuda Purana, Brahma kanda, 16th Adyaya:

 

maNimAnnAma daityastu shaN^karAkhyo bhaviShyati |

sarveShAM saN^karaM yastu kariShyati na saMshayaH || 3:16:70

tena shaN^karanAmA.asau bhaviShyati khageshvara |

dharmAn.h bhAgavatAn.h sarvAn.h vinashyati sarvathA || 3:16:71

 

A Demon by name maNimAn will come into being as Shankara, who will, no doubt, pollute everything. This is why, O King of birds (Garuda), his name will be Shankara; he will pollute and destroy all BhAgavata Dharmas.

Curiosity Query:

It's said 80% of Hindus worship Sankara, does that mean Christians are right in calling Hindus 'demon-worshippers'?

The above sloka is not in Garuda Purana. It is a lie. Most probably by some christians.
