Guest Commentary: Getting the Myths Wrong

Some guest commentary to fill some space.

Getting the Myth Wrong
As a warning this is a bit of a rant. It is a pet peeve of mine when they do not get the myth of a supernatural creature right. There are countless novels where they just seem not to care if they follow the well established rules of that supernatural creature. Some examples are:

• Werewolves hurt by holy water.
• Vampires hurt by silver bullets
• Ghost hurt by crosses

There is a reason that these stories are popular. Feel free to drop some elements if needed, but adding in wrong ones really annoys me.
