Monster Isle
A monster is a type of fictional creature found in horror, fantasy, science fiction, folklore, mythology and religion.

Monsters usually resemble bizarre, deformed, otherworldly and/or mutated animals or entirely unique creatures of varying sizes, but may also take a human form, such as mutants, ghosts and spirits, zombies or cannibals, among other things.
