I know most people are instantly going to say "Fallen angel" or "unclean spirit", but this is not always true. That's like saying all "angels" are flying good guys in the sky with wings and harps.

A Demon is simply a supernatural being from various religions, occultisms, literatures, and folklores that is described as something that is not human.

The term "demon", in current colloquialism, usually refers to "evil spirit", "fallen angel" or "unclean spirit", and have a malevolent connotation (ex. "demonic" means sounding evil and scary). This is because in Christianity and Judaism, the term "demon" usually refers to angels that rebelled against YHWH, the Abrahamic God, and sided with Satan/Lucifer. Satan is considered the chief "demon" in the Bible, the most powerful angel who rebelled against YHWH. They supposedly cause possessions causing people do to malevolent acts. In the end, they, along with Satan, are damned to hellfire for eternity.

The term is derived from Ancient Greek δαίμων daimōn, which is a word for "spirit" or "divine power", much like the Latin genius or numen. However, the Greek term does not have any connotations of evil or malevolence. In fact, εὐδαιμονία (Eudaimonia), literally "good-spiritedness", is a term for "happiness". The term first acquired its now-current evil connotations in the Septuagint translation of the Hebrew Bible, informed by the mythology of the ancient Semitic religions. This connotation was inherited by the Koine text of the New Testament. The medieval and neo-medieval conception of a "demon" in Western civilization (see the Medieval grimoire called the Ars Goetia) derives seamlessly from the ambient popular culture of Late (Roman) Antiquity. Greco-Roman concepts of daemons that passed into Christian culture are discussed in the entry daemon, though it should be duly noted that the term referred only to a spiritual force, not a malevolent supernatural being. The Hellenistic "daemon" eventually came to include many Semitic and Near Eastern gods as evaluated by Christianity.

Now that you know, please note that there is a difference between a "demon" in general and an "evil spirit". If they exist, you would NOT want to mess with them.
