She's a Demon
sharei haven't seen the film yet, but to me one of the more brilliant aspects of the novel is that it works when you interpret it either way- that beloved had come back from the dead, or if it was just a girl who'd escaped from a white man who was taking advantage of sethe.
one thing to keep in mind (in the book again) is that the people in that particular community were disposed to believe in supernatural occurences- thus you can interpret beloved's haunting and then reappearance logically because all there is a whole community, including most of the main characters, who are narrating the events in a supernatural light.
Yeah. Beloved was a demon. She was a baby when she died and her 'spirit' went to Heaven while 'this' Beloved is a demon from Hell. Obviously, she was very vengeful and wrathful, even though she displays the characteristics of an innocent, young woman. Sethe killed her because she didn't want Beloved to suffer in slavery the way she did. As a haunting spirit in the house, she did some awful things and scared her family. She even carelessly scared off the boys, sadly to never be seen again.
You know, Beloved's eyes were BLACK, even though those were contact lens LOL! But, it was showing that she had darkness in her.
She was both real and a demon.
