I don't think "elf" or "demon" fit here... 山魈 has a definition of "monster/demon/spirit/mythical thing that lives in the mountains" (some sources say it only has one leg) but even then "elf" gives the wrong idea. In either case nowadays it usually refers to the mandrill.
Diff:
- 魈 魈 [xiao1] /elf/demon/
+ 魈 魈 [xiao1] /used in 山魈[shan1 xiao1]/
