* {{Misblamed}}: Many fans of the series constantly blame Evan for continuously using the Monster Blood on his tormentors despite knowing how dangerous it is when in reality, Andy is the one who always suggests it. What's more, is that she's the one who keeps bringing it back and even used it to feed the class hamster some right behind Evan's back in the second MB book all for the sake of a good laugh. Yet Andy remains one of the most popular characters of the series while Evan is the one who takes all the criticism for the plight.

* RootingForTheEmpire: Evan is such a whiny brat that readers hope the Monster Blood will eat him.
* TheScrappy: Nearly all the characters from the ''Monster Blood'' books are this, with the exception of Andy and Trigger.
** Evan Ross, the main character, is a ButtMonkey like many of the other protagonists, but he's also incredibly whiny and often comes across as just plain dumb to the point of making him unsympathetic.
** Evan's parents consistently unload him on relatives that are either unfit to take care of him or just plain treat him like crap, while also telling him to suck it up.
** Said aforementioned relatives include Evan's Aunt Dee and her son Kermit. Kermit is a SpoiledBrat InsufferableGenius that spends most of his page time either using Evan as a guinea pig for his insane experiments (that almost always backfire) or getting Evan in trouble just to see him either punished or beaten up (and many fans speculate that Kermit may actually make his experiments backfire on purpose just to get Evan in even more trouble). Aunt Dee lets Kermit do whatever he wants and always believes his lies about Evan picking fights, leading her to scold him and treat him like crap.
** Finally, there's Conan Barber, a horrendous example of one of the many bully characters in the series. Conan only seems to exist for the sake of making Evan's life even more miserable, has no redeeming qualities, and almost never receives any punishment for it. You'd think after Evan saves his life at the end of ''Monster Blood II'' Conan would leave him alone, but he still beats Evan up whenever he can. With some many unlikable reoccurring characters, it seems to make more sense why an entirely brand new protagonist was created for ''Monster Blood for Breakfast!'' in the ''Horrorland'' series.
* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Andy was far more likable than Evan Ross was and many readers wished that she'd been the main character. There were four ''Monster Blood'' books in total during the main series, but Andy was just a supporting character in all four of them. This is especially true in the last two, where Evan's cousin Kermit becomes a primary character and Andy's practically DemotedToExtra. And then, for ''Monster Blood for Breakfast!'' in the Horrorland series, an entirely new protagonist was created with none of the original ''Monster Blood'' cast returning.

* DarknessInducedAudienceApathy: The ''Monster Blood'' subseries, aside from the incredibly poor plots, has a lot of unlikable characters. Evan Ross, the protagonist of all four books, is an incredibly whiny preteen to the point of irritation and constantly makes the stupidest decision to tell others about the stuff when it's predictable no one will believe him. Conan Barber, who appeared in the second book of the series, is a ruthless bully who [[DisproportionateRetribution beats up Evan for minuscule incidents]] and [[UngratefulBastard doesn't even seem thankful for Evan saving his wailing skin from getting eaten by the class hamster who had grown into a beast due to the green stuff]] [[AesopAmnesia judging by his actions in the third book]]. Evan's cousin Kermit is an InsufferableGenius who often uses Evan as a guinea pig for his experiments and even gets him in trouble with Conan (and was even ''laughing'' at Evan getting his ass handed to him by said bully, according to Evan himself), as well as blaming Evan for his own troubles to Aunt Dee, who proves to be equally as despicable for not even taking the time to at least hear Evan's side of the story and automatically believes Kermit's lies, even when they are incredibly ridiculous. The only genuinely likable character in the series is Evan's friend [[GenderBlenderName Andy]], and even she can come off as the DesignatedHero, as shown in the second book of the series, in which she feeds Cuddles Monster Blood right behind Evan's back, thus getting in trouble with science teacher Mr. Murphy, who, too, fails to take the time to actually listen to what Evan has to tell him and [[MisplacedRetribution punishes him for things he didn't even do]], making him just as despicable as the other characters. Needless to say, there's a perfectly good reason why even the diehard fans of the series consider the ''Monster Blood'' series the most detestable of them all, and there's an equally good reason why ''Monster Blood for Breakfast!'' in the ''Horrorland'' series introduced a new protagonist.
