They should really fix that in GURPS Horror!

I'd like to see a 3-5 page bibliography of sources on monster folklore and monster fiction. I'd settle for a web link, but being able to go back to the original sources would be *extremely* helpful for the campaign I'm running.

A couple of worked examples of monsters would be nice, but I'm supposing that's either already in there or one of the things likely to be cut because Powers already does a lot of that stuff.

If there's significant amounts of stuff that doesn't make it into the final book, it'd be cool if that got released somehow (either via Pyramid or a separate e23 supplement).

Powers certainly doesn't, it is about abilities not creatures. However the Creatures of the Night pdf series is exactly that.

The Watchtower, pg 15 of Creatures of the Night 5. Awesome. Awesome and creepy.

But, Powers plus the Basic Set gives you all the tools to stat up, say, a werewolf if you like. For instance, I'm using Powers to write up a werewolf template for a PC in my campaign. Creatures of the Night is just exactly what it says... a few worked examples of creatures.
