“Did… did you bring chocolate on this mission?!?”
“It’s stress chocolate!”
“But WHY?!?”
“ASSASSINATIONS STRESS ME OUT, OKAY?!?”

things you can use in place of cultural monsters
Can't use golems in your fantasy world because they're beings that belong to Judaism and you aren't Jewish? Try using elementals!
Can't use w*nd*goag in your story because they're monsters from Native beliefs and you aren't Native? Try wraiths or forest spirits!
Can't use Skinwalkers, either? How about changelings, The Thing-type aliens or faeries?
Don't want to use Christian biblical angels? Try eldritch monstrosities from another world.
Don't want to namedrop La Llorona, Hachisukisama or the Cupecabrah? How about old-fashioned undead, zombies or ghosts?
Just because certain supernatural beings are only for certain groups, doesn't mean you have to limit your monsters! There's plenty of demographic-neutral alternatives to famous creatures that you can use without culturally appropriating or disrespecting people's beliefs.
In every alternate dimension of Earth, a different religion is real and those deities actually exist. All religions that people believe in are valid- just perhaps not in their dimension. An interdimensional traveler goes to our dimension and is stunned to see that our Earth has no 'real' religion. Rather, it is the spawning point for the religions of the other dimensions.

"W-why did you do all of this? If I'm not the chosen one, then what was the point of training me?"
"To hurt you."
"To hurt me?"
"Yes. I needed to destroy you and make you into someone new. Into the new chosen one."
"Why am I needed at all? Who's the real chosen one?"
"I am. And I've failed."

A place for thoughts no one cares about yet I still feel like sharing oh, and I like cute things.
