A poltergeist is another type of ghost. However, these are easily confused with demons. The reason is because not only do they possess the powers of a spirit and apparition, they can touch and move things as well. Demons usually possess these powers and that's why they are usually all confused with demons. Comes in ball, shadow or full detail form.
Poltergeists are ghosts that can move objects, touch objecrs, make noise and can appear and be sensed like a spirit.

A Wraith is a paranormal being dating back to castle times. These beings are people that were not read their rites when they died. Examples are plague victims and people that suffered things much like plagues and other dangerous means of death. These beings can be 1 to many people combined into a walking/floating skeletal being. These beings are very dangerous and aren't a force to be reckoned with. They may guard areas and relics of importance, and may even be controlled (however they are very hard to tame, with them being people, or were). These beings let out loud whines and crys of what almost seems like pain (that may be due to multiple people bombarding the main skull with thoughts causing the beast to become distressed), and sorrow of not moving on to the afterlife. These creatures are featured in many games and movies (I.e. Slender Origins by BIGZUR).
