Section1 & 2 In the beginning, a furious and crazy dictating monster was heard growling impatiently. Everyday music was playing about “The ancient beginnings of us all” (Raffle, 21). Hrothgar’s men lived in a great friendly environment until the mean and Evil monster; Grendel came and haunted the warriors. He was conceiving by a pair of monsters, who were the blame for the death of Abel. The almighty kept the demons out, but soon split into different forms of evil.
In the book, Victor is a radical thinking and determined young man who had experienced love from his parents and Elizabeth; and friendship; and cared for him. Victors has always longed to be with them. On the other hand, the monster only had observed the love and friendship from the cottagers, De Lacey family, whom him had tried be friend with; but, only be shunned away. The Monster also resorted into kidnapping a boy, whom turned out to be Victor Frankenstein’s brother, and thought to keep him as a companion; but ending up killing the boy, William Frankenstein, because of William’s relationship to his creator. This is especially evident when the Monster demanded Victor Frankenstein to create another female whom is just like him by threatening to never leave him alone.
Modern Monsters Todays world is full of monsters, from addictions to diseases, it doesn’t matter what it is. They could happen to anyone at any given moment.

For most people the birth of your baby is life changing in thrilling ways, however not so much for Paul.
Technology Will Kill All Science fiction typically depicts visions of what life will be like in the future. In “The Veldt,” Ray Bradbury subverts what too much technology will do to the human race if it progressively continues to overcome life itself. In this story, George and Lydia Hadley live in a Happylife Home that does every task and chore for them, leaving them carefree. The house features an extravagant nursery that George and Lydia’s children control with their mind. Originally, the nursery is constructed to help the children; however, it actually turns the children against the parents, resulting in the parent’s death.
In the epic Beowulf, the protagonist, Beowulf, faces three different monsters. Much like Beowulf we each have our monsters that we face and it is up to us to decide whether to stand up or cower away. After being terrorized for so long, king Hrothgar and his people and his people the Danes, are in need of a hero to vanquish their curse, which is Grendel. In the epic, Grendel is the first monster Beowulf has to fight. This monster attacks at night, usually after people are “sprawled in sleep” for a quick and effective kill (Beowulf 33).
Secrecy plays a major role in the story of Frankenstein. Without secrecy, the monster would have never learned how to speak, read, or conjure up feelings. The monster learns of how to read by skimming through the Frankenstein’s journal he had secretly taken while finding clothes to use to conceal his identity when he ran away from the laboratory, as well as learning how to speak and read by observing the De Lacey family, hidden inside the family’s property. He also learns how to love by watching the De Lacey family, while hidden, which allows the story to continue on how and why the monster desired to come out of secrecy to persuade his creator to make him a partner for his own. Physically speaking, the monster’s character is built by combining raw materials from dead and useless body parts; although, secrecy is how the monster’s mental character is built in both the film and book.
Victor’s plans for his creation were more than great, but once he had actually created the Monster, all of his past feelings turned into disgust and horror. Frankenstein finds himself "…capable of bestowing animation upon lifeless matter" (Shelley 51) and attempts to put himself on the same level as God by giving life back to the dead. Although Victor thought otherwise, the creature that he thought would bring him fame and do good for society became a murdering monster. "…I thought that if I could bestow animation upon lifeless matter, I might in process of time (although I now found it impossible) renew life where death had apparently devoted the body to corruption." (53)
Fairly quickly the idea of playing outside went from “boisterous games” to being “too poor to sit in the house.” With this sentence the manipulation of Hurston’s point of view begins. Through the eyes of a child playing outside is a wonderful privilege. Through the eyes of Hurston’s mother, it was the only way to experience “any pleasure.” To Hurston’s parents, life was a test and they were trying to get themselves, and Hurston, through it. Hurston’s father had a negative point of view on life and always seemed to be putting Hurston down (for her own good perhaps?) he often threatened to break her spirit or “kill [her] in the attempt.” In a perhaps less blunt way, Hurston’s mother showed that she too, had a fearful and negative outlook on the world.
