THE MONSTERS AND CRYPTIDS BUNDLE

The Monsters and Cryptids Bundle - Curated by Robert Jeschonek

We live in a world of things that are out to get us. We always have.

From our ancient days huddling in caves, wondering what beast was growling in the shadows, to our modern times browsing the internet, wondering what cyber-criminal might be lurking and waiting to pounce, we have feared the unknown monsters of our times. And we have captured those creatures in stories told around campfires or on social media, giving shape to our deepest fears and seizing a kind of power over them that enables us to go on with our lives instead of cowering from danger.

We all crave these stories on some level. We all love a good scare and a monster that disturbs us, one we may face and conquer vicariously through the heroes and heroines of such tales.

That is why this StoryBundle exists, unleashing monsters and cryptids in ways that thrill and shock us. We have brought together here—for your terrified enjoyment—books in which monsters of many shapes and forms challenge protagonists who seek to tame or destroy them.

Dive deep into this set of novels, and you will come face to face with ancient demons, bloodthirsty sasquatches, unseen, mind-controlling parasites, a murderous snack cake, a zombie Bigfoot, and much more. You will read about the epic battles waged against them by heroic figures who refuse to accept fear and defeat.

In this way, by reading these stories of fictional creatures and the struggles to contain them, we might all feel a little less scared of the all-too-real monsters stalking our lives. We might be better prepared to endure the infestations, ailments, accidents, disasters, setbacks, and troublemakers that inevitably afflict us...to stand against the phenomena that lash at us in our daily lives, whether with genuine wicked intent or simply the brutal physical laws of our planet, our universe.

And, hopefully, we will worry a little less about which monster might finally defeat us, because worrying does no good. Because it is much more empowering to believe in stories of triumph over danger, to hold on to the bravado, however false, that comes with experiencing the victories of heroes over the dark, nasty things that lurk online, in the shadows, in our dreams, and in our hearts.
