Okay, so I'm writing a book centered around witchcraft. For the most part, it will be the horror/suspense type. Would you, as a reader, be disappointed if a werewolf was brought into the story? I know that to many people Stephenie Meyer had kinda made werewolves lame...but, the one in my story, should I choose to add it...would stick more to the lore about it--a human who is cursed by a witch to turn into this monster. Or, do you think it would be better if there were no supernatural monster added?
I wouldn't put a dragon in a horror book. Lol. That would turn it from horror to fantasy and I'm not looking to make this Harry Potterish. This will be based on beliefs about witchcraft from the medieval times, which even exist today. I most likely will put zombies in it because I'm wanting something devilish like that in it. And the werewolf is quite a devilish creature.
Sam - I do agree with you about some things in Twilight being random, but still, I love the saga as well. I've just noticed that other people weren't very thrilled about the way werewolves and vampires were portrayed. But, that's unique and creative for you..and I applaud her for that. But for a story like mine...horror that is...it would be better to just stick to the frightening lore about the character. Makes it more exciting.
