Oh man...I'm not spiritual by any means, and I'm generally the sort who thinks that natural phenomena should only be explained by natural means.....but, as an Irishwoman, I can honestly and unashamedly say that banshees scare the everliving buhjeebus out of me. Seriously, yikes.Haunted Serenity said:Banshees...my worst fear but one of the coolest spirits
They are about to be destroyed by New Moon. Lets jump ahead and find a new new monster. How about the gaint squid.Vanguard_Ex said:Werewolves. Pure awesome.

actually i dont think harry potter has griffins in it... those are hypogriffs half horse half eagle/hawk...InvisibleSeal said:I like griffins: they weren't ruined by Harry Potter I don't think. I think everyone knows what they are, but for the people who don't, they are half lion half eagle (eagle's head and talons, lions hindquarters).
They just look so awesome, but I'm not really sure which mythology they are from.
Then again, I'm not sure if I can say "I like griffins" since they aren't technically real...
EDIT: Plus they aren't really mainstream like dragons etc.
EDIT again:
Probably the best kind of mythological creature to "get behind" or something would be something that would specifically target humans I suppose. So ghouls, from your suggestion, are a good idea. Also, what about doppelgangers (they copy the voices and semblance of a person and then target new people).Drakmeire said:I suggest "Ghouls". for those of you who don't know much about ghouls, they are basicly intelligent zombies that gain the memories and appearance of any creature they consume (at least in some versions). Any thoughts on that?
Vampires are only as successful as they are maybe just because they seem to be specifically malicious towards humans, and are stealthy. I suppose this should be the kind of thought process people go through when thunking of game enemies or whatever.
Wow, really long post - sorry!
No more goddamn zombies. I still can't understand the draw. I've been trying to get it.Drakmeire said:Myself and many others feel the "Twilight" and similar series have ruined vampires for the masses and turned them into some sort of joke. So any suggestions for a new mythological creature to support in hopes of it becoming more mainstream and filling our newfound void? I suggest "Ghouls". for those of you who don't know much about ghouls, they are basicly intelligent zombies that gain the memories and appearance of any creature they consume (at least in some versions).
