Battles have been waged against nightmares from the shores of Greece and the Far East to those lurking in wooded backyards and subways.
Now monsters will leap off the page or through the screen. And appearances can be deceiving, sometimes the worst monsters look just like everyone everyone else! Enjoy these human monsters from literature, TV, and movies.

Remember, you can spin for monsters from any wheel, just no more than 5 monsters at a time. The tasks are in the Master List of Tasks spreadsheet on the tab labeled Fictional Human Monsters.

*A big thank you to Jenny and Lexi who assisted with this wheel.
