마수 can be some kind of mysterious and frightening beast.
마 part can mean 'the mix of mysterious, evil, otherworldly'. Personally, I think the word 'witch'(마녀) represents the feeling of 마 well.
[ FYI, 녀 in 마녀 means female, woman.
And 마 is also used in 마법 (spell, magic) ].
수 means a beast here. The most common word made of it would be '야수(wild beast)' as in '미녀와 야수 (beauty and the beast)'.
