Well it only has 2 terminals on it so I guess its not dual coil. The
label on it is almost all gone.. all I can see is that it says its an
8ohn subwoofer. Will hooking this in parallel hurt anything even if its
not designed to be in parallel?

It depends on the existing speakers and amp. If the existing speakers are
8 ohms and the amp says it can drive 4 ohm ones, then two 8 ohm speakers
in parallel give 4 ohms. Approximately. Since no two different speakers
are uniform 4 ohms across their range.

However, the normal way to drive a sub is to take a feed from both left
and right via a pair of buffer amps and parallel them. Then have a
separate low pass power amp for the sub to allow it to be adjusted to suit
room acoustics and your main speakers, etc.
