This Monster Hunter's Compendium combines "Van Richten's Guide to Vampires," "Van Richten's Guide to Werebeasts," and "Van Richten's Guide to the Created."

I highly recomend this to anyone who wants to make the traditional "monsters" just a bit more frightening and a little less predictable.
Excellent resource
