Monster Mash Final Vampire vs. Wendigo
Monster Mash finals
Vampire vs. Wendigo
It all comes down to this. The NCAA basketball tournament has nothing on the Monster Mash. We’ve seen vampires bust through the Chupacabra and the mummy on the road to the finals. Some interesting facts about vampires. Many believe that the first vampire in history is Judas Iscariot. The aversion vampires have to silver stems from the payment that Judas received after betraying Jesus. The oldest vampire legend is Lilith, from Sumerian and Babylonian mythos. Lilith has recently been popularized in the show True Blood. Although there are vampire myths from around the globe, most of the current beliefs about vampires stem from Romanian vampire legend.
The Wendigo is very underappreciated as far as monsters go. There has not been much made about them. There was a pretty mediocre movie called The Wendigo from 2001. If you really want to dig deep into a good Wendigo story, check out Graham Masterton’s novel Edgewise, which is pretty awesome and gives a good depiction of them. A creature of magic, they are exceptionally strong and excellent hunters, mostly targeting cannibals.
So, who will win? I had to think long and hard about this one, because both characters bring a lot to the table. Vampires are fighting machines if you take away the aversion to silver and that a stake to the heart can kill them. The Wendigo is hard to kill and can only be seen if you are facing them directly. All the same, I don’t see how they would take out a powerful vampire. So there you have it. The winner of my first monster mash is the vampire, just as long as they aren’t the sparkly ones found in the Twilight movies.
