Blood and Guts

The media dubbed her the ‘Damsel of Death’. The world labeled her a cold-blooded killer. In the early 90’s, Aileen Wuornos shot and killed seven men in Florida, claiming she was attacked, though the evidence tells a different story. Was Aileen truly a victim? Or was she simply a monster?

In the ancient lands of the Middle East and the Mediterranean, these monsters took their place among some of the most dangerous creatures in history. Whether it be the sounds of beating wings or claws against metal, the effects of these beasts have rippled throughout history. From the infamous leonine mythologies to ancient immortalized artworks, their legacy is nowhere near over. Can you survive the catastrophe?

Slinking through the forests and waters of North America, these beasts emerged from folklore to become predators, guardians, and powerful myths. Whether it be six paws hitting the earth, or a thundering roar in the eye of a storm, these legends have been immortalized for centuries. What can you do but watch their eyes gleam in the dark?

Deep in the rolling hills of Lycia, foxes aren’t the only ones in the henhouse. The lithe body of a lion, horned head of a goat, and a serpentine tail make this monstrous feline a deadly (and powerful) force of nature. More than a match for many, let alone one. Are you any match for the fire of the vicious chimera?

Cultures and traditions across the world are familiar with the idea of a sphinx, responsible for some of the most benevolent and malicious acts in mythological history. With a pair of mighty wings, monstrous claws, and an all-knowing intellect, she has devoured her way into the archaeological record for good. From friend to foe, protector to huntress, she’s always waiting. But will you have the answer for the cunning sphinx?

Rustling through the grasslands of Persia, not everything is what it seems. The man-eater slinks through the trees, devouring anything and everything in its path. With three rows of fangs and a poisonous tail, do you even stand a chance among the unconquerable?

The Internet. A wonderfully weird place to browse topics endlessly and connect to other people. However, in 2009, the Internet would welcome something sinister into its forums. Slenderman. A tall, faceless, man that haunted the dreams of children all over the world. He became a sensation practically overnight, but for two young girls in Wisconsin, he became their entire life. As well as a means to a very bloody end. Did Slenderman actually tell these girls to kill? Or was he simply a scapegoat for their crazed plan?

A lonely young woman, ten terrifying rules, and one disgusting doll. Talk about a recipe for disaster. Directed by William Brent Bell, “The Boy” was yet another 2016 film ravaged by critics, but is held in our own personal regard as nothing short of a cult classic. With a creaking old house owned by a passive elderly couple, what could go wrong? A lot. Who lies behind the mask?(And… why is he hot?)

On May 6, 1996 Sherri Dally dropped her children off at school and went off to run her errands at her local Target. Little did she know something more sinister lurked around the store aisles. She never made it home. Behind her she left her purchases, her van, and a trail of unanswered questions. Who could do such a thing to an innocent mother? The answer might hit a little TOO close to home.

Named in 1923, the disorder turns everyone you love into a carbon copy, a mirror image with something just… a little off. This impostor delusion has traveled through history masquerading, ironically, as a symptom of various other diseases, before finally coming to scientific light. Everyone is different now. Everyone, except for you. Can you trust who lies behind the mask of a friend?
