Hunters

Buffy and Beowulf may have paved the way

But new monster hunters are born each day

And all get a thrill

From an epic monster kill

It's slay the beast! Or be the prey

Oh sure, the ladies love Supernatural's Sam and Dean Winchester, but these boys are more than just a pretty face. 

They're the latest breed of monster hunter, human crusaders for a paranormal-free world. And believe us, it's no easy task. 

Luckily, Sam and Dean are not the first to wield a wooden stake, or banish the undead with goofer dust and salt. Pop culture has created an army of monster-slaying heroes - from the humorous ghostbusting duo of Bill Murray and Dan Ackroyd, to the kick-ass moves of Michelle Geller in Buffy the Vampire Slayer to the fictional retelling of Abraham Lincoln, not your average monster hunter. 

The Most-Wanted Monsters series is designed to help you join a legion of fearless slayers. With more than 676 life-saving tips, our survival guides will not only help you deke out the beastie under you bed, we'll help you destroy it.

Know them before they GET you.

So, when there's something wrong, in your neighborhood, who ya gonna call? Name your favorite monster slayer in the comments below and you could win an e-copy of SPIRITED, an anthology of 13 haunting stories.
