Name for a village, creek, woods, and creature!?

Question

I'm writing a story and need some name that will fit a mysterious, supernatural, horror, for a village, woods, creek, and creature. Please, if you could help me I would really appreciate it! thank you!

Sorry about that, I want four different names for each place. I was thinking the setting would be in Montana, and the names I would like to sound mysterious and scary. Oh, and the village is set in a valley far from civilization, and the woods surround it. And it's very small.

Answer 1

What country are you setting it in? Merry Olde England? Or the USA? That will affect the credibility of the names.

I think Summersville would be a good name, sounds friendly and honest, summer is a nice season, yet dark things can lurk there. Using a last name, such as Sheldon, for the name of the village is good, too, since towns are often named after famous people or leading citizens. I used to live on Sheldon Avenue and there's something about that name that just seemed right to use it in a story sometime.

The woods or creek should have a "harmless" name with ominous tones like "Dyson Creek." Think about it, Dyson is basically "die" and "son."

Ack! I just looked at your name in my list of questions that I've answered and only now did I realize that your name has the word "summer" in it! LOL! OK, try "Mayfair" for the village or "Fairtown." Again, those are names that sound friendly and honest.

Answer 2

From your question, I'm not sure if you want one name to fit all, or four different names.
