Monster is a term for any number of legendary creatures that frequently appear in mythology, legend, and horror fiction. The word originates from the ancient Latin monstros, monstrum, from the root of monere, "to warn", also meaning prodigy, miracle.

By common knowledge, a monster is a being above the laws of nature by holding any unnatural, strange or inhuman characteristics. It is necessary to say, that average people claim creatures to be monsters only if the creature is dangerous and aggressive. In the scientific terminology, everything unnatural, strange or inhuman being is a monster since they are not supposed to be here in our world. So the average people call them fairy-creatures, elves,...but they are MONSTERS after all. These fantasy creatures are the creations of the human mind, which have a fear of reality in a specific level of existence.
The term MONSTER is also used to people behaving on an inhuman and disgusting way.
We also have to fight with our own monsters who symbolize our inner desires.

A monster is anything that the imagination sees as frightening or Odd.
Such as the "Boogeyman."
The bogeyman, boogyman, or bogyman, is a legendary ghost-like monster often believed in by children. The bogeyman has no specific appearance. He is sometimes equated with specific real-life persons, such as serial killer Albert Fish. The term bogeyman is also used metaphorically to mean a person or thing of which someone else has an irrational fear.

Monster is an energy drink. It comes in a can bigger than Red Bull, but it really tastes pretty good. There are different kinds: No-Carb (Blue label), Chaos (Orange label), Assault (red label with camo), and regular (green label). I hope I didn't leave any out. Anyways, the best tasting one, I think, is the blue label.
