Are there any original Werewolf / Vampire / Witch ideas left in the Horror-Fantasy genre?
From my perspective, there are always some original ideas left, however the writer needs to be original presenting these ideas to the media, find an original way to write them out, present the characters differently, for example witches are touched less than the vampire or werewolf, therefore I focus on the witch’s character as my protagonist, and being the Vampire has been so humanified, I make him my villian…with werewolf as the lover to the witch. However with the right amount of creativity you can go further, in exploring the depth of the characters, in trying to touch particular areas which hadn’t been touched before…..for example my vampire doesn’t drink blood but feeds in another way, while my werewolf may handle things differently….to make it unique. Now I am not trying to give ideas, however figured I’d touch some aspects that were mentioned, I agree it does get tiresome to go to the bookstore and feel like I am reading the same book all over again.
