Notice that is where the highest concentration of demons remain, where they're most conscious of the material world, and where they become familiar with psyches through dream.

They in turn wish to possess human forms because they've become addicted to those qualities, and are driven to experience them more intensely. Not all spirits who come to inhabit the mortal plane are demons, Great Oak for one example, it's just that the most destructive ones that are as [[Humans Are Bastards|big a bastard as humans]] get all the attention. |
