Daemons are benign spirits of nature They are said to be beings of the same nature as both mortals and gods. Damons are considered to be similar to ghosts, spirit guides, and forces of nature or even the gods.

A demon is a supernatural creature that is common is Christianity or other religions. They are malevolent and usually quite evil, causing pain and suffering for others (minions or beings of hell).

 

Daemons and demons are terms that are often used interchangeably. Though this is not exactly incorrect, it is not accurate either. While “demons” and “daemons” are similar in their mythology, daemons are Greek mythology based and demons are religiously based. Daemons are not based off of the negative and aggressively violent connotation that demons are.
