   Not really.  Consider three of the genres within the category of   
   "Monsters":   
      
   Vampires   
   Werewolves   
   Things from outer space   
      
   Can you say that they "come and go"?    I suppose so, but they will   
   always be popular because they require suspension of disbelief.  So do   
   conspiracy theories, and look how popular they are.
