I always enjoyed people making OCs based off famous horror movie monsters. I mean... Dream Demons and Slasher Killers are monsters too! The point of a fandom is to be able to explore things that often wouldn't appear in canon, by limiting things so much you limit the creativity you give to creators.

Also by saying you don't allow things that are 'technically' human, you also 'techinally' say that any Mad Scientists, Any Jeykll/Hydes, An Phantom of the Opera kids, and any Igor/Renfield etc. kids aren't allowed because they 'are' 'techincally' 'human'.

It won't stop me from making OCs, it just feels very limiting to a certain demographic. Especially when you have the chance to have fun with all these Horror inspired looks. Horror is a broad genre and exploring it should be something this fandom encourages. This is like... baby's first horror show. Lead them into more things they can enjoy. I disagree. You actually limit yourself by being way too specific about Monster Parents actually. Just go and create a son or a daughter of whatever "out of the place" monster you like, and start to research them a bit more in-depth, because MOST OF THEM actually have been inspired by mythology to begin with and thus have an actual mytholigical counterpart somewhere...and then just name them as parent. Look at my Sirens for example: visually completely based on the Zora and Rito race from the Legend of Zelda, yet I still call them daughters of Sirens and everyone is happy ;)
