I need ressurected monsters!

C"mon people, saddle up and list me some monsters/things/whatevers which riseth from the dead (at elast once).

Thus far, I have Mummies, Vampires, and Phoenixes. Anyone have some more ideas? No Zombies, please.

Are you planning to become a modern day Victor Frankenstein? :wink:

Revenants
Barrow-Wights
Nazgûl
Banshees

Are inferi zombies, technically?

Lich

Ghosts, obviously

Jason, from the Friday the 13th series

Why not Zombies? They seem the other obvious choice.

Dread Cthulhu.

Nah…'e’s only sleeping.

If Jason counts, you totally have to count the Joker and Catwoman.

Pinin’ for R’yleh?

And The Crow

Frankenstein’s Monster

Dream of the Endless

Good catch! :wink:

Draugr or draug

Son of Kyuss ( from the old Fiend Folio - D&D has a wealth of undead )

I don’t recall their name; but I recall a form of undead from an obscure fantasy novel that were created by decapitating a victim, then raising the headless corpse. They grew an eye to see with at the base of the neck in the process, and without a head lacked the will to disobey their creator.

Nightwalkers of Touched by the Gods. They are corpses possessed by ancient, bodiless spirits that are enemies of the gods. They cannot move during the day - sunlight ( in that universe ) is created by the gods and disables them. They have the durability of zombies, but aren’t slow or stupid.

Paul Carleton Savage of A Jungle of Stars died, and was offered a return to life and immortality by the alien named The Hunter.

Ma’ar of Mercedes Lackey’s Valdemar books died and returned to life again and again, possessing his descendants’ bodies.

Hawk and Fisher in the last* Hawk and Fisher *novel died and were returned to life in the last novel; so did an awful lot of the people who were killed by the army of animals returned from the dead.

In the Nightside novels, you have Merlin, Dead Boy and others as undead; John Taylor also died and came back at one point.

Godzilla, in Godzilla: 1980, was killed by the Super X Attack Craft, & resurrected by the effects of a Soviet nuclear weapon.

The demon-thing from the movie Jeepers Creepers was resurrected every 23 years, I believe.

The children of the Earth Masters in the* Riddle Master of Hed* trilogy are dead, yet speak to Morgan and give him his starred sword.

Kratos of God of War returns from Hades might count; he’s sort of human, but certainly a monster.

The ancient sorcerer *Xusia of Delos * was resurected in **The Sword and the Sorcerer **

As a generic class, you have the archtype of the Dying God. Not just Jesus, but examples going back to Osiris.

I’m 30 years old, and have laughed at a lot of things. Today is the first time I have ever screamed with laughter. Thank you.
