European fantasy: Oh great heavens! The gnomes have tarnished my vegetable garden and harassed my plump little son for littering in the forest.
American fantasy: GoPro footage “There’s some sort of demon in our forest thats mutilated several people from my little town, Charlottesville, Wyoming, in the middle of fuck-all nowhere so I’m goin in there with an m4 and my buddies to go whoop it’s unholy ass back to the goddamn hole it crawled out of.”
There’s a certain romanticism to the unknown vastness of america. Europe has been thoroughly settled so you know what kinds of gnomes will be in your back garden. When you go to wyoming though you have no idea what monster could be there
i swear to god the american fantasy is the greatest story idea i have ever heard and i want to write an entire story on it now
This sounds like something someone would actually make, and I would love it
