Halloween is upon us and we all know what that means! Scary monsters everywhere! But while we're all used to seeing hundreds of different horror monsters in popular culture, did you know that almost all of them fit neatly into 5 simple categories? All thanks to Noel Carroll's Taxonomy of monsters! What do you think of his categorization? Did he miss any traits? Can you think of any monsters that don't fit the mold? Let us know in the comments!
