Tag: exophilia

hello! I’m loving your blog and I heard mention that you had a good list of monsterxhuman media? I’ve just finished Radiance by Grace Draven which was a delightful romance fantasy novel between a human woman and nonhuman male. And now I’m so desperate for more! Shape of Water is an obvious pick, but do you know any other media, especially books, with romance between humans and nonhumans? Thank you so much, and I hope you have a lovely day!

Hi! Thank you for your nice message! I’m glad you like the content of my blog 🙂

I guess you mean this list:

Books with monsters as love interests

This list by @primus-why is really helpful if you are looking for films:

Films With Relationships Between Humans and Non-Humans

I have also added new tags to the older content of my blog. These tags are now searchable on my blog:

#terato movie

#terato film

#terato book

#terato comic

#terato short film

#terato tv series

#terato short story (original fiction by writers on tumblr)

Not all (but most) of the media feature a canon relationship between humans and non-humans but all of the tagged stuff is of interest for teratophiliacs.

Hope that helps!

According to “In Search of the Supernatural/搜神记”, a 4th-century compilation of legends about ghosts and spirits, jiaoren lived in the South Sea, spent their days weaving cloth, and if they cried, their tears would turn into pearls.
