My favorite creepy creature is a Wendi-go. They are supposedly just humans that starved and started eating human flesh to survive and the commission of their own kind changed them into a monster. I think people enjoy the thought that there could be something more in this world that isn't "normal" or "human".

Those are really creepy. I agree that people enjoy them because we think there is something more in this world that isn't just humans.

Vecna from Stranger Things season 4 is the creepiest character in my opinion. He is frightening because of his skin and his face, and the noises he makes. People are fascinated because he is the main villain in the new season of one of the most popular Netflix series.

My favorite creepy creature is probably a skin walker. They are shape shifting creatures and you don't know if they are near you. I believe that people are fascinated by the horrific because it represents what could be real and leaves people open minded when thinking if these horrific monsters are real or not.

Skin walkers are creepy because they are an urban legend that has been around for a long time.

My favorite creepy creature is Grendel's Mom. She is so scary because she is good at manipulating people and I would definitely fall for her tricks. I think people like scary things because it gives them a thrill that they can't many other places.

My favorite creepy creature is Bigfoot even though I don't believe in it. Bigfoot is frightening because we don't know anything about it and it comes out of nowhere. People are fascinated by the horrific because we want to learn more about it gives you an adrenaline rush.

My favorite monster is Cthulhu, I like Cthulhu because he's represented as a large and mysterious cosmic force. Along with this, the universe that he resides in has many large and mysterious and cosmic forces that control certain aspects of human life. I think we like horror because it can give us an adrenaline rush, it can be nostalgic, or it can present a new interesting genre of story compared to other genres.

A scary creature is a tommyknockers. They are spirits of old miners who either help other miners while they work or lead miners into abandoned shafts that eventually cave in on them or have poisonous gas that kill the miners. People are fascinated by the horrific because being scared gives people an adrenaline rush that makes for excitement.

My favorite creepy creature is a black cat. There is nothing scary about them except for the superstition that they bring bad luck. People are fascinated by this for the same reason we are fascinated with murder trials and car wrecks. Just the idea of something scary that doesn't really affect you draws people in.

My favorite creepy creature is a ghost. Ghosts are so frightening because they appear in our world when we least expect it. People have adrenaline when they get scared. This is why people are fascinated by the horrific.

My favorite creepy creature is jotunn. They grab people and make them do a blood eagle on a tree. They like to see many think that may or may not be true and why take into account that they could be real or not and they like that thriller.

I'm glad the short guy did a blood eagle on a tree. And when the main character decked the old lady.

My favorite creepy creature is probably Diana from lights out. She is creepy because she only appears in the dark and is fast and just looks sketchy. Horror gives an adrenaline rush that's why people like it.

This being is frightening because he knows everything and changes whoever he meets to the way he needs or wants them. People are fascinated by the horrific because they bring the other side of the world and people want to know the evil side that they see less of normally.
