Monster Mail Rises from the Dead
Since 2018, our Monster Mail service has been helping curious monsters get in contact with humans. The idea is simple – you write a letter to a monster and they write back.
But the closure of Hoxton Street Monster Supplies left the future of the service hanging in the balance and our monsters have been devastated by the lack of human contact since the shop closed (Himani the Yeti is even giving us the cold shoulder).
So, after much debate between our two communities, we’ve decided to re-open the Post Mortem service! Afterall, someone’s got to maintain harmonious monster-human relations.

Alas, the shop curse still lingers so the only way to get a Monster Mail Writing Pack is to donate to the Ministry of Stories. But we think that helping little humans explore their imaginations is a small price to pay for the chance to correspond with real life monsters.
Using the Monster Mail service is dead easy, just follow these steps:
- Click the link to our Monster Mail Enthuse page https://ministryofstories.enthuse.com/monstermail
- Choose the monster you’d like to correspond with; Vlad the Vampire, Elgorn the Dragon, Himani the Yeti, Red the Werewolf, Nettle the Fairy or Pearl the Mermaid.
- Donate £15 and fill out your details (including home address).
- We’ll send you a Monster Mail Writing Pack (this will take around a week), complete with an introductory letter from your chosen monster, a pre-paid envelope, stationary, stickers and a set of instructions.
- Once you’ve written your reply, simply seal it in the pre-paid envelope and drop it off at a postbox or Post Office.
- We’ll receive your letter at the Post Mortem sorting facility and make sure it gets safely to your chosen monster (we’ve got letters flying all over – to the top of the Himalayas, the shores of the river Thames and even the innards of a Transylvanian castle).
- You’ll receive a monstrous reply, within three weeks, to your home address.
“Chatting with humans used to be like getting blood from a stone. And that’s hard (believe me, I try it every Veganuary). Now, thanks to the Post Mortem Monster Mail service, I can get in contact with humans through the post!” – Vlad the Vampire
