The witch wolf is a dangerous species and is very unique. It almost looks the same as a normal wolf, there is only some changes. Some differences from a normal wolf is how it catches prey, how it acts, where it lives, or what kind of powers it has. The witch wolf has grey fur and amber eyes. But, while they are on the prowl, all of their hair stands on end and their eyes turn black. A adult witch wolf is about 5.1 feet to 7.3 feet in length, which is larger than a normal wolf by a couple feet. These special types of wolves live in packs.

In American society, we believe that monsters are typically perceived as scary, with big teeth and claws, and gross looking. Sometimes they are hairy and smelly. In popular stories, we think of them as the villain ninety five percent of the time, but they can also be supporting roles to the main villain who doesn’t look as monstrous or doesn’t have monstrous actions. Despite some belief, they can end up changing their state of mind and switch to the good side, but that is rare. They are usually nonhuman, like vampires, werewolves, or even aliens. Monsters are insane and crazy. Their acts are murderous and often manipulative to get what they want in the end. They also want to take over the world and rule over mankind. Although that’s their
• Basilisk The Basilisk, also known as the King of Serpents, is one of the deadliest creatures in Harry Potter. It can kill when directly looking at its victims and petrify them when looking at them indirectly, such as through a mirror reflection. In Harry’s second year at Hogwarts, the basilisk of Salazar Slytherin terrorizes the school and manages to petrify a few students. In Harry’s world, basilisks are born when a chicken egg is hatched beneath a toad and the first to have accomplished this was a Greek wizard named Herpo the Foul.
Since grade school, kids have been afraid of monsters or any spooky creatures. Whether it would be traditional culture monsters or serial killers, it would create nightmares for children.

A monster is any being that is evil through its morals, actions, and the fear it puts in people.

Moreover, during his second year at Hogwarts, Harry defeats the Basilisk (a giant, legendary reptile reputed to be known as King of Serpents that is infamously known to have the power to cause death with a single glance) in the Chamber of Secrets and saves his best friend’s (Ron Weasley) younger sister, Ginny. In his third year, Harry fends off dementors (dark creatures that are known for consuming human happiness) from taking his godfather’s soul; he goes on to win the Triwizard Tournament through a series of rigorous trials, and eventually faces off against Lord Voldemort himself in his fourth year, battles against a handful of Death Eaters (Lord Voldemort’s faithful followers) in his fifth, aids Headmaster Albus Dumbledore in his search for one of Lord Voldemort’s Horcruxes (an object in which a dark wizard or witch has been able to hide a fragment of his or her soul that can only be created after committing a murder) in his sixth; and ultimately killing Lord Voldemort after scouring the ends of the Earth for the remaining Horcruxes before bravely giving himself up to be killed as well because he is the final Horcrux that Lord Voldemort unintentionally made the night he murdered Harry’s
In chapter 14, there is a descriptive explanation of some of the creatures that existed in Narnia: “A great crown of people were standing all-round the Stone Table and though the moon was shining, many of them carried torches which burned with evil-looking red flames and black smoke” (Lewis 151). There were also ogres with huge teeth, wolves, and bull-headed men along with evil trees, and poisonous plants. Some creatures could be described in length for the sake of the readers (Lewis 151).
Monsters, the creatures of the night who prey on our fear. The ones who have no sense of emotion and lack the ability to show remorse. The big, the bad, and the ugly that lurks within all of us. The term “monster” has been around for centuries, throughout the years the view on monsters has changed, but the one thing that has stayed the same is the fact that we have always viewed them as something negative. We view monsters as evil and scary. Personally, I think of blood and murder when I hear the word monster. A monster brings out our darkest and weakest sides, whether it’s the anger that they cause or the fear they bring upon us. The term monster can be defined in many different ways, depending on how we view them, but I feel like the
How art is presented in a museum is based off guidelines. The shows cannot be too crowded, there has to be a flow to the pieces, and there has to be a concept behind the curation of the art. This process can take years depending on the size of the show; both floor plans and 3D models are created to curate shows. Shows in other countries and cities will follow similar guidelines. Some exhibits may have more money put into them and more thought about the curation, but generally there will be a concept, and flow to the pieces shown.
Stated simply, the word myth, derived from the Greek word mythos, means story (Morford et al., p.3). However, this is an immense understatement; myth is a rich and interpretive source of information. Its value lies in the interpretation of its relationship with humanity and how it influenced, or was influenced by ancient society and culture. Myth has persisted to fascinate people by exploring the meeting place between human desires and morals. Myth uses symbolic characters and fantastic stories to portray the truths and complexities of what it means to be human.
