Frankenstein, Cthulhu, Dracula, the Xenomorph ...
At first they scared us. Then they intrigued us, they became familar and ended up cute and cuddly.
That's why we have plush Cthulhu figures, Herman Munster and Twilight.
Monsters, over time lose their ability to inspire fear and then they are slowly absorbed by pop-culture, which completely declaws them and renders them mostly harmless and a bit of fun.
