MONSTERS - In one family's home there is a section of the basement locked-up. After their mother doesn't come home and their drunk dad refuses to contact the authorities, the kids take it upon themselves to uncover their family's secrets. What they find is more disturbing than they ever could have imagined. ANIMALS - In New York City, there is an underground S&M scene where any decadent and depraved pleasure can be had for a price. When a young man gets caught up in the scene and disappears, his friends go in search. But their path will lead them to the darkest pits of human desire. MONSTERS AND ANIMALS is two novella prequels to the cult favorite hardcore horror masterpiece SURVIVOR. This edition also includes two more bonus stories, "Shooting Schedule" and "Mabel's Recipies," that further explore the world of SURVIVOR.

Monsters, Animals, and Other Worlds is a collection of twenty-five medieval Japanese tales of border crossings and the fantastic, featuring demons, samurai, talking animals, amorous plants, and journeys to supernatural realms. The most comprehensive compendium of short medieval Japanese fiction in English, Monsters, Animals, and Other Worlds illuminates a rich world of literary, Buddhist, and visual culture largely unknown today outside of Japan. These stories, called otogizōshi, or Muromachi tales (named after the Muromachi period, 1337 to 1573), date from approximately the fourteenth through seventeenth centuries. Often richly illustrated in a painted-scroll format, these vernacular stories frequently express Buddhist beliefs and provide the practical knowledge and moral education required to navigate medieval Japanese society. The otogizōshi represent a major turning point in the history of Japanese literature. They bring together many earlier types of narrative—court tales, military accounts, anecdotes, and stories about the divine origins of shrines and temples––joining book genres with parlor arts and the culture of itinerant storytellers and performers. The works presented here are organized into three thematically overlapping sections titled, “Monsters, Warriors, and Journeys to Other Worlds,” “Buddhist Tales,” and “Interspecies Affairs.” Each translation is prefaced by a short introduction, and the book features images from the original scroll paintings, illustrated manuscripts, and printed books.

Non-human and near-human creatures inhabited art, myth and scripture across ancient Mediterranean cultures. This volume assembles a truly interdisciplinary collection of contributions: some treat scriptural texts and some focus on art; some treat individual creatures (the snake, the horse, the crocodile), while others consider animals across the whole of a religious structure. All, however, trace the influence of ideas across Mediterranean cultures, demonstrating diffusion through contact, cultural influence and common patterns of thought. The contributions are presented in four sections: the first asks what makes an animal sacred, looking at both religious practice and written texts; the second section explores the idea of hybridity, drawing on visual material and exploring the boundaries between animal, monster and human in Greek and Near Eastern religious thought; the third section looks at the topic of the monster in more detail, tackling questions of definition and explaining the role of monstrosity in religious thought, in the Mesopotamian, Assyrian and Greek traditions. The final section collects five synoptic studies of the animal and the monstrous across the Zoroastrian, Biblical, Christian, classical and Quranic traditions.

Eason provides an extensive overview of the mythology, legends, and folklore surrounding fabulous and strange fantasy creatures from diffferent lands and ages, from Chinese dragons and the Native North American thunderbird to the demon hounds of Celtic and Norse legend. She describes how in various ages and cultures people have identified with the idealized qualities of wise creatures as a source of power and better understanding of their own personalities and used the behavior of birds and other sacred creatures to gain oracular information in Ancient Egypt and the Classical and Celtic worlds. This book offers both traditional and little known folklore and legend about familiar real life creatures such as the horse, the cat, and the raven and delves into the weird and wonderful world of saints who claimed to change into deer and modern cryptozoological monsters such as Bigfoot, Mothman, and lake and sea monsters, as well as the rationale behind animal or headed deities of the Aztecs, Egyptians, and Celts in whose name people went to war.

Excerpt from Extinct Monsters: A Popular Account of Some of the Larger, Forms of Ancient Animal Life I have been requested by my friend Mr. Hutchinson, to express my opinion upon the series of drawings which have been prepared by that excellent artist of animals, Mr. Smit, for this little book entitled "Extinct Monsters." Many of the stories told in early days, of Giants and Dragons, may have originated in the discovery of the limb-bones of the Mammoth, the Rhinoceros, or other large animals, in caves, associated with heaps of broken fragments, in which latter the ignorant peasant saw in fancy the remains of the victims devoured at the monster's repasts.
