Even though all monsters (in the sense of MSM characters) are monsters (in the sense of "mythical beast"), it is not a good idea to refer to monsters as different types of mythical beasts. I was reading Oxford Dictionary and read "boggart", which is "an evil or mischievous spirit". The Bowgart itself is not a spirit, even though its name origin is similar to "boggart". Just because the dictionary or thesaurus says a word is similar to another, it does not mean the word is the same. An example includes in Wikipedia, where admins and bureaucrats are different in the sense of their community culture, despite thesauruses saying that admins and bureaucrats are just synonyms.
