Monument Mythos

The Monument Mythos is a pseudo-analog horror series created by Alex Casanas, otherwise better known as ALEXKANSAS on YouTube. The Monument Mythos takes place in an alternate history; one where James Dean became president, personal computers were banned in the late 20th century, and national monuments hold dark secrets.

The World of The Mythos
The world of the Monument Mythos remains shrouded in mystery, with details revealed by both The Archivist in Season One, and The Maize Corporation in Season Two. National monuments in the Mythos are known to hide monstrosities not seen in the everyday world, and many events that define the history of America have been modified or left out.

The TFMDs
In the Monument Mythos, the creatures and monsters seen throughout have been identified as TFMDs, or "True Forces of Mass Destruction". One peculiar case with TFMDs is that humanity has labeled itself as a TFMD in the Mythos. Some TFMDs seen in the series are: The Liberty Lurker, Lincoln Lookers, The Suez Canal Crab, Mt. Rushmore, and Special Trees.

The Special Trees
One of the most prevalent topics in the Monument Mythos have been those of the Special Trees. Making their first appearance in the episode, WASHINGTONWORMHOLE, they have continued to be an important aspect of the lore, bleeding into many facets of the Mythos. They are strange, other-worldy being that still do not have a concrete identity and motive in the series. They have been shown generally cause nothing but chaos and pain in the paths of whoever meddle with them.
