"Vintage Monsters" most commonly refers to the Universal Classic Monsters, a collection of iconic creatures from films produced by Universal Pictures between the 1920s and 1950s. These include characters like Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster, the Mummy, the Invisible Man, the Wolf Man, and the Creature from the Black Lagoon. The term can also be used more broadly to include other classic horror monsters from early cinema and literature.
