Biography
The Box Demon was hiding and living in Horst's inter dimensional money box. It appears as two long, black arms and hands with a green glow that stretch out of the box. The rest of its body is never seen outside of the box.
The demon appears after Eustace opens the box despite Shirley, Courage and Horst telling him not to. Once outside of the box, the demon grabs Muriel and Eustace as Courage runs to find Shirley (who was told to leave by Eustace after the box was opened). When Shirley returns to the farmhouse she walks up to the box before kicking it closed, causing the demon to drop Muriel and Eustace before retreating back into the box. As Shirley gathers the $100 that falls from the box, Eustace says he knew there was money inside of it. Eustace reopens the box before getting pulled inside of it as the box slams shut.
Personality

After she seals the box to save Muriel, Shirley hopes Eustace has learned his lesson. The demon rewards her with $100 for proving herself to be selfless.
