Succubus discussion
Demons, Werewolves, and Mortals, Oh my!

There are other readers (especially in the paranormal and erotic genre) that like their demons, ghosts and werewolves to be more accessible; more human.
My question, therefore, is: which do you prefer? Do you lean toward the traditional as seen in classic horror movies, or do you prefer a new twist on such beings?


In my story "Lovestruck Succubus" I actually surprised my own editor when she read about my character Raif Lungren and found out, about halfway through the book exactly what secret he was holding. I dropped hints throughout the story about his true nature but she read them as something completely different. I was relieved when she told me she was surprised in a good way and liked the twist. It was a twist not only within the plot, but within his character.
My question is this: Do you prefer reading about succubi in the traditional sense? (wings, horns, red skin) Or, are you okay with a succubus that looks like a normal person. What about a shapeshifting demon succubus?
And should werewolves be traditional, or can they be able to shapeshift at will?
