The words demon and daemon are spelled in a similar fashion and have similar meanings with very specific differences.

A demon is an evil spirit, a devil, an inhabitant of hell. Demons are often depicted with horns, a pointed tail, cloves hood and grotesques faces. Demon may also be used figuratively to describe an evil person, an intractable obsession or something harmful. The word demon is derived from the Latin word daemonium which means lesser spirit or evil spirit.

The idea of the daemon comes from the beliefs of the Ancient Greeks. To them, a daemon was a spiritual being falling somewhere between a god and a human, or the ghost of a fallen hero. Daemons are good or helpful spirits.

Remember, a demon is an evil spirit, a daemon is a good spirit. The word daemon is derived from the Greek term daimōn.
