R Chetwynd Hayes famous "Monster Family Tree" as outlined in his 1976 short story collection "The Monster Club".

Not on the list, but part of the book, are the rare cases where humans can survive crossbreeding with one of the "primal monsters" and produce, in the specific case we find out about, a "Humegoo"

Monster Chetwynd: A CAT IS NOT A DOG - Announcements

The Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt is presenting a location-specific installation by Monster Chetwynd (b. 1973) in its public Rotunda. The artist achieved fame with her exuberant and humorous performances using handmade costumes, props, and settings. Her works are often absurd and full of joie de vivre; they refer to popular culture or iconic works from art history. In […]

Junkspace Workshop- This week i partook in Kate Macleod’s Junkspace Plaster Workshop. I thought it would be beneficial to me to choose this workshop as it would give me a base to work with for my cat tree and allow for me to make some spontaneous work. It’s unlike me to not have a fully planned piece before going into the process but this was very eye-opening and loose. We used found objects, scrap wood and plaster to make sculptures. I picked a piece of chipwood countertop and some planks and got to work. The learning curve on working with the plaster and skrim was a good exercise as it taught me to actually be patient and work with my mediums rather than not using them correctly and hoping for the best. In the end, i walked away with a new skill and the base for my cat tree.

In conjunction with the Junkspace workshop i also did a bronze casting induction. We made sand moulds, i chose to carve a breast plate into the sand so my piece would still be on theme. I discovered a love for the foundry this day, from sculpting into the sand, watching the bronze be poured, sandblasting, patenating, the works. This new skill is a skill for life, Roddy also gave us some sculpting wax to use in lost wax casting. I might try to make a Canopic jar, but also might make an ankh depending on how easy the wax is to work with.

I also took to looking at monster Chetwynd and Alastair Maclennan this week because Chetwynd makes Lo-fi sculptures and performances with found objects, this would be good for figuring out what i can use to build onto my cat tree. Maclennan is more intentional with his objects, this is something to keep in mind when thinking about if the cat is actually going to play on the tree.

Thinking about sculpting again, this is an interesting sculpt.

So I'm ready, let's go!

There was british horror writer, Ronald Chetwynd-Hayes. He has a unique kinds of monsters in his works. The most fascinating to me are all from the short story The Shadmock.

It is about a man and a woman who purchased a mansion along with an old family of servants.

Those servants are descendants of various monster breeds with new horrifying abilities.

See what people on the web say about the story:

"A "shadmock" is a third generation hybrid of vampire, werewolf and ghoul, all of which are distinctly nonhuman and hideous. The shadmock, however, looks like an innocent, angelic and perfectly human being".

"When Vampires, Werewolves and Ghouls mate with one another, you get WereVamps, WereGoo's etc, and then we see what happens when they mate, you get monsters like Maddys, Shaddys and Raddys and then when they mate you get a mock, and then if a Mock mates with any of the other hybrids you get a Shadmock".

"All of the monsters have their own unique ways of killing. (The Shaddy for instance has a massive long tongue that it uses to skin its victims alive, whilst the Raddy has a Yawn like scream that is uses to steal its victims soul)"

"Wonder not why your hair stiffly bristles, just abandon all hope when the shadmock whistles."

So Shadmock is whistles and it is deathly.

If I ever finish my Harry Potter fanfiction, Shadmock will be there.

There is also a 1980s movie about the Monster club, where Shadmock is featured, but it has slightly different plot.

From the story: "Vampires sup, Werewolves hunt, Ghouls tear, Shaddies lick, Maddies yawn, Raddies drool, Mocks blow, but Shadmocks only whistle"

Outcasts I'd like to see in Wednesday

More greek mythology

Gorgons are cool and all, but I'd like to see more, like Minotaurs, Hydras or anything! And yes, I did just list all the greek creatures I could think of. But come on, wouldn't it be cool if instead of a hyde, Wednesday would have to fight a 3(+- how much they cut off) headed hydra in s2? Like I'd love to see more of sword wielding Wednesday, all armored and stuff. She'd totally rock chainmail, and she could be riding her werewolf gf!

Other mythology

I have a genie OC, and I really like the idea. Like why can't genies and other contries' mythical creatures exist and go to Nevermore? Just some ideas: Oni, Cyclops, mummies, etc.

Pop culture monsters

Idunno if that's the right expression lol, but I also have an invisible OC, and they could add more of the classic monsters and creatures too! Fairies, unicorns, you can imagine!

Biblical monsters/demons

Like angels, succubuses, I can't say much, but it'd be cool!

More originals!

I think they did a pretty good job on the hyde, so if they were to create something new again, they'd be more than welcome to by me! Wether it's something totally new, or just a twist on something that already exists, idc!
