How can you tell the differnence in an evil spirit& a demon?

Question

Do they do different things...look different...? What are some signs if it's a demon? (I hate talking about them...just wanted to get these questions about them out of the way)

Answer 1

Demons and Spirits have no scientific base. You can not prove that a spirit exist nor can you give credibility to a demon. It is within the mind of the beholder.  The demons are self inflicted and they have no power unless you give them power. You are in total control even if you do not know it.

Answer 2

well an evil spirt was once a evil person and a demon is a evil thing i think

Answer 3

Yeah, an evil spirit was once human, so they still have human form. A demon does not. I'm not sure what they look exactly, but I have friends who've seen them; apparently they're not pretty.

Answer 4

Yeah an evil spirit is from an evil person who has passed away, and remains evil, as a ghost pretty much...A demon is of totally different form, and has a completely different energy about them...You can usually tell when a demon is interacting with you, an evil spirit gives you a very bad vibe, as in energy, but a demon is really different......

Answer 5

Well, in all truth, They can look the same. Though demons usually look more demonic than an evil spirit, which I would presume to be somewhat transparent.

Though have you ever heard of The washer woman? -Or in all sense a Banshee- If not let me tell you, they all appear the same. Long white hair, in a white dress with no decorations on it. Often they have rags in there hands covered in blood, the rags. For instance when I saw...the Washer Woman.

Well, I was young, loved to explore and see cool things. I went outside into the forest, since we lived in mane at the time. There was a rather large stream that ran near the back of my house, I had a quiet hiding spot there. Well one day while I was down there, I saw a woman keeled down at the stream cleaning what seemed to be rags. I assumed that it was blood that was on the rags since each time she put one in the water it would change color as the stream moved. I was only lucky enough not to see her face, the sight of her was bad enough. I could not take my eyes off of her, I don't know what it was, but I just couldn't. The air around me was cold, I could even see the breath streaming out of my nose as I exhaled.  Then as quick as I had came and saw her, she seemed to turn into mist. Like, first her arms vanished, then the rest of her. Almost like it was in segments. The worst part of this story was that when I instantly ran home and told my father, he had bad news for me, about my mother.In fact she was in the hospital, she had been in a car wrek, and was not expected to live. It was like a nightmare come true...

But all and all, the Banshee-Washer Woman- was an Evil spirit. Though in a way, I thought of her as a good one, in warning me that something was going to happen. My Nana Karina told me that I was glad to not have seen her face, for it would have meant my death.

OK, now onto demons. The most I can tell you about them is that they must bring bad luck, and cause horrid things to happen with there  dark magic's, if I must say so myself. I have not had personal experiences with them, so I would not be able to fully clarify anything about them.

Usually and evil spirit wears dark blue trousers , where as a demon like brighter colours like yellow and often has turn-ups or flares . Also , if you grab and evil spirit it makes a noise like a bat , but a demon makes more of a yelping nosie . The best way to tell the difference is by placing a mountain elk near one - elks can't stand demons but are drawn to evil spirits and get the urge to mate with them .
