There was a red head 13 year old was screaming and knocking at the door fast. We opend the door and she ran in and closed the door fast. We noticed her hand was bloody and a knife was sticking out of her back and was covered on blood. We helped her out and called our parents. We lied and told them she was a friend from school. She explaned that her boyfriend has gone crazy. He tried to kill her. We clean up the blood and removed the knife. It wasn't in too deep. We were cleaning the cuts when we heard somebody opened the door. We forgot to lock the door. We ran downstairs to the tv and turned it off. Then we shut the lights off down stairs and hid in a big closet down in a trap door we go down in case of bad storms. We put furniture and a food storige. There was a food we never seen before. Appearantly it couldn't go bad. We brought some into the closet with us. The girl told us her name and we told her ours after that we were comepletely quiet.

Is there a book with the complete cthulhu mythos?

If by the Cthulhu mythos you mean any story written about Cthulhu, you are probably out of luck. Writers have been adding stories to the mythos since Lovecraft started it, and depending on how you define it, even before (Bierce and others).

If you mean specifically those written by H.P. Lovecraft, there are several. Even a sub-par iPhone app. For theme, I recommend the Necronomicon, the complete works of H.P. Lovecraft. It's on amazon for about 20$.

All of his works are public domain now, so a quick google search for complete works of lovecraft will also grant you access.

Now, if you want to keep reading about the Cthulhu/Lovecraft mythos, it's a loooong road, and 90% of it is pretty rough stuff. But there are some good gems out there. Start with Clark Ashton Smith, Derleth, Zealia Brown Bishop and other contemporaries and work your way outwards, until you hit the new lovecraft circle. Then, if you are truly brave, you can wade into more modern waters.

Happy hunting!

What are some monster story ideas?

Some monster story ideas are making the monster scary, funny, and creative. It's how YOU want the monster to be like.

If you're asking for a STORY, here are some examples:

(1) The story can be based on a monster can be a transformed human that accidentally drank a dangerous potion and he searches for a way for him to transfer back into human with the help of friends or so.

(2) There can be a legend on a monster that lived 3,000,000,00 years ago and still lives in a empty cave in the far west that's called "The Devil's Dungeon." No one has yet to explore it.

So, there can be three kids on a plane, yet it crashed in the area where the monster is hiding, and they go into the cave, and they discover the monster yet unnoticed by it. (I think you can get the rest of the story from there ;) )

(3) A lonely monster that is known as a dangerous, malicious, and scary monster, but all he wants is a friend since he doesn't have a place to belong in the human world.

Yet, a little boy that was walking across him befriends him and they have a deep bond.
