Evil being (5)

I believe the answer is:

demon

(Other definitions for demon that I've seen before include "Evil spirit, devil" , "Imp" , "Devil - master performer" , "Evil spirit or cruel person" , "Expert" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, The Mirror, the Universal and the King Feature Syndicate.
