Monster

type of fictional creature

A monster is a type of creature in fiction. They are usually found in legends or horror stories. They are often ugly and may make people and other creatures scared. They also eat people sometimes. A monster could really be any creature, like a vampire, a wizard or even a werewolf. Figuratively, a monster is a very evil person. Sometimes these creatures are not bad or monsters as you would say because some protect other people and/or are inoffensive.
