This source depicts a song titled Nightmare written and composed by Park Jihyo. The song is about a person being stalked by her, and how they should run home quickly. Yet they can't escape, as she is a nightmare. This song is very catchy, so it could latch onto students senses easier if they can find a song they enjoy listening to.

When we think of monsters, often times we think of literal colossal beasts, and Godzilla is no stranger to this thought. With his intimidating scale, atomic breath, and colossal strength, Godzilla is nothing short of a monster in the eyes of those he terrorizes.

Steve Harmon is a black teenager living in Harlem when he is tied to a murder scene. Written through his diary entries, Steve must try to prove he is not guilty any means possible. Even gone as far as being called a monster. Is Steve Harmon really a monster, or is he as innocent as he says? This book can captivate students and get them thinking just what a "monster" is.

Many consider children innocent and sweet, but can that be said for Yummy? During a gang initiation Yummy shot at someone but accidentally killed a young girl in the process, now Yummy finds himself on the run. After trying to seek help from the gang he was looking to impress, Yummy finds himself in a world of trouble. I feel like it's important for students to look at the social and economic problems in our country, so they see why younger children are turning to a life of crime. Especially if students come from a more privileged area. Is Yummy a real monster, or was he led astray?

Hotel Transylvania follows hundreds of years old Dracula and his daughter, Mavis. In this movie all of the monsters come for Mavis's birthday party, from Frankenstein, to wolves, and to a colossal giant. Ironically enough despite all of this, humans are actually viewed as monsters after they killed Dracula's wife. I feel like this movie is important to show students, because it shows that humans in the long run can be viewed as monsters by other species.

Frankenstein's monster is a grotesque humanoid in the eyes of those who view him. Yet, despite his form Frankenstein has qualities those would find child like. In this classic movie, they explore the theme of monster with Frankenstein and his monster. I feel like this would be appropriate to show my students a clip of the video to expose them to different kinds of monsters in media, even classical ones such as this movie.
