If something isn't undead, and it isn't really a spirit, and it isn't really a demon, what is it? The best word we can come up with is "monster." Now, this is a fluid category, we'll grant you that. But to us, a spirit is something that died and refuses to leave. A demon is something that lives in hell and only comes topside to spread pain and chaos. And a revenant is something dead that won't lie down.
The other kind of sucker's a monster
The word "monster" comes from the Latin monstrum, which means - well, it means "monster," but it also means "portent" or "omen." Bad sign. From a root, monere, that means "warn." People used to think that monsters were signs of impending disaster. Our experience has been a little different. We think that monsters are disasters all by themselves. Nothing impending about them.

Eikö oo ihan normaalia odottaa törmäävänsä monsteriin koska tahansa?
Eikö oo normaalia opetella latinaa osatakseen manata demoneita?
