    flaws onto monsters in order to deter the realization that they are the real monster. In John Gardner’s “Grendel”; Grendel is the victim to this concept because society has a preconceived notion about him and automatically stigmatizes him. Grendel is an embodiment of mankind’s greatest fears and a reflection of them selves.
