Comments: I pretty much have always been interested in Werewolves. I watch just about every show that has them, like Teen Wolf, True Blood, The Vampire Diaries, The Originals, and Supernatural. I am interested in how Werewolves came to be and have adapted over time. Also I like that they form pacts that protect each other, much like a family.
Sample Story: When I searched for stories related to werewolves, I found a cool short story about a woman who is always has meat, but no one can understand how until she transforms into her werewolf form.
Bibliography Information:
Sample Story: A Women Transforms Herself into a Werewolf
Book Title: Werewolf Legends from Germany
Book Author: F. Asmus and O. Knoop
Year: 1898
Storybook Topic: Gothic Creatures
Comments: I found this interesting by reading a storybook about a ghost. I always find interesting to watch shows or movies about ghosts. Most of the time, they are linked to some sort of object and cannot be at peace until that object is either destroyed or exorcised. I think writing a story about a possible ghost who tries to find someone to help him or her be at peace by telling their story, but first finding out how to reach out to someone who can help them.
Sample Story: I found a Hawaiian myth story about different types of ghosts. This follows along the lines of what I want to write about. This storybook also has other stories that I can possible get information or inspiration from.
Bibliography Information:
Sample Story: Homeless and Desolate Ghosts
Book Title: Sacred Texts
Book Author: W. D. Westervelt
Year: 1916
Storybook Topic: Vampires
Comments: Vampires have always been interesting creatures to me. As you can see from my comments about werewolves, I definitely watch a lot of television about vampires as well. Everyone likes to always think about Vampires as all bad, but I am maybe interested in writing vampires who don't kill humans, but live off of animals to survive. I am also thinking of writing a possible teenage drama about a couple of college kids who get turned into vampires (but don't realize it), and are being hunted by hunters.
Sample Story: I found a Vampire Index when searching the sacred texts. I found this very interesting and hard to just find one single story to pull from. This specific story is about the awakening of vampires or how they are born or reborn.
Bibliography Information:
Sample Story: Awakenings
Book Title: The Vampire Codex
Book Author: Michelle Belanger
Year: 2000
Storybook Topic: Heroes
Comments: I am utterly fascinated with heroes! I watch like every superhero show and movie! Batman is my favorite hero because how awesome is that he can fight crime a villains without supernatural powers. I also love what heroes stand for, especially when they stand up for something like protecting the people of their city. Also when they don't make it their mission to kill, but fight for justice.
Sample Story: I found this storybook in the sacred texts. It is about the birth of hero Hercules. One that is told much differently than that of the Disney movie, which is pretty interesting. This version is much more fascinating and one that I could write a story about.
Bibliography Information:
Sample Story: The Myth and Birth of a Hero: Hercules
Book Title: Sacred Texts
Book Author: Otto Rank
Year: 1914
(Hercules fighting the Nemean lion by Peter Paul Rubens)
