Tom's Games >  Monster

A monster is an individual or a creature whose appearance or behavior does not correspond with the rules and codes of society. Thus, it is quickly rejected by the world in which he lives.
The term used pejoratively, could include either fantastic creature or real being.

Etymologically the construction of the word monster is unclear; it may come from the Latin verb ?monstro? which means ?to show? or from the Latin word ?monstrum? which means ?omen?. In the first case it can be deduced that the word characterizes freaks of nature. In the second case the definition seems less clear; the monster would be the harbinger of things of ill omen or good omen.

From time immemorial, the monsters have always fascinated humans. Indeed, we can see that from the earliest artistic representations, human beings drew men with heads of animals or creatures that are combinations of several characteristics of different animal species. Mankind has always liked to invent frightening and worrisome creatures. In many culture and folklore monsters are fantastic creatures like vampires, ghosts, gremlins, undead, were-wolves, , ghouls, and many more. Some even helped the success of great films like Dracula, Frankenstein or Alien.
