Meet the monsters in this who's who of the baddest of the bad!
Like those supernatural beasts everyone knows and fears-the bloodsucking
vampire, Count Dracula, and that eight-foot-tall mash-up of corpses,
Frankenstein's Monster. Or that scariest of mummies, Cheops, who scientists
revived after 4,700 years-big mistake! Or more horrifying yet, the Horla, an
invisible, havoc-wreaking creature that herds humans like cattle and feeds of
their souls.
Drawn from the pages of classic books and tales as old as time, this frightfully
exciting collection features 25 of the creepiest creatures ever imagined, from
witches and werewolves to dragons and ghosts. Every monster is brought to life

Monsters is an exciting introduction to literature and langua...
