''[[http://misspiesmonsters.tumblr.com Miss Pie's Monsters]]'' is a {{Tumblr}} webcomic and [[Blog/AskAPony Ask Blog]] by [[https://derpiboo.ru/profiles/4fe24e617f123b7aca0030ac DanielTepesKraus]], based on ''MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic''.

The comic takes place in an [[AlternateUniverse alternate Equestria]] where there are two different subgroups of ponies: Equestrian ponies (the 'normal' ponies seen in the show) and Everfree ponies, a diverse group of ponies that have traits of fantasy creatures and monsters.

In this universe, Pinkie Pie is a psychic Equestrian pony who is on a mission to make friends with Everfree ponies, and attempt to reconcile the two groups. The rest of the Mane Six appear as Everfree pony counterparts of their canon selves, each with the traits of a different monster from the show:

* Applejack's counterpart is Tatzlpony, a pony with Tatzlwurm traits, most notably a [[OverlyLongTongue very long tongue]].
* Fluttershy's counterpart is Flutterbat, a vampire bat pony.
* Rainbow Dash's counterpart is Aurora Dash, a windigo.
* Rarity's counterpart is Clarity, a crystal golem pony.
* Twilight's counterpart (still named Twilight) is a breezie.

The comic is deliberately lighthearted in tone with a cartoonish atmosphere, and doesn't take itself too seriously. Pinkie Pie can take questions from the Tumblr audience using her CrystalBall, and answer them herself or relay them to other characters to answer.

* BadassNormal: Pinkie Pie is the only regular pony in the group. She does have psychic powers, but otherwise is just an ordinary earth pony - well, as ordinary as Pinkie can get, anyway.

(This being Pinkie, it's possible she didn't even ''notice''.)
* CloudCuckooLander: Pinkie Pie, as per canon.
* CrashIntoHello: Clarity meets Flutterbat by landing on her.
* CrystalBall: Pinkie's standard device for information gathering and for receiving communications from the Tumblr audience.
* CuteLittleFangs: Flutterbat has them.
* CuteMonsterGirl: Flutterbat, a vampire bat pony who still has the gentle demeanor of canon Fluttershy.
* DidntThinkThisThrough: Pinkie Pie brings a group of Everfree monsters into Ponyville, in the presence of a royal guard whose specific duty is to prevent Everfree monsters entering the town.
* ADogNamedDog: Tatzlpony is named after her own species.
* ForHalloweenIAmGoingAsMyself: The Monsters are able to enter Ponyville because it's Nightmare Night, so everypony mistakes them for costumed ponies.
* ForScience: Twilight's justification for spying on Pinkie.
* GenkiGirl: Tatzlpony.
* GentleGiant: Lemon Hearts is twice the height of a normal pony, but blushes at being complimented on her looks.
* GravityIsAHarshMistress: Clarity walks off a cliff and gravity doesn't kick in until she notices.
* HeadbuttingHeroes: Twilight and Aurora Dash have a history, and seem to hold a grudge toward each other.
* AnIcePerson: Aurora Dash is a windigo, and thus has ice powers.
* InsaneTrollLogic: Pinkie's attempt to solve a quadratic equation is this. It's so insane that Twilight can't stand it, causing her to accidentally reveal herself.
* IronicFear: Flutterbat is scared of all the monster costumes in the Nightmare Night festivities (although if she's anything like Fluttershy, she's probably scared of ''everything'').
* MathematiciansAnswer:
-> '''Tumblr follower''': Hey Tatzlpony, how do you talk so clearly with your tongue taking up most of your mouth?
-> '''Tatzlpony''': Like this! See?
* {{Irony}}: Pinkie Pie is a psychic, but completely fails to notice that ''a sentient creature has been living in her mane'' for quite a while.
* MixAndMatchCritters: Tatzlpony is a Tatzlwurm/pony hybrid.
* MonsterMash: Essentially the theme of the comic.
* MythologyGag:
** The very first line of the comic is Pinkie reprising her "Giggle at the Ghosties" song from [[MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E2ElementsOfHarmony the show's pilot two-parter]], although it takes on a somewhat darker tone here.
** The notion of Pinkie being a psychic, and the outfit that she wears, originated in the show episode "[[MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E20ItsAboutTime It's About Time]]".
** All of the titular monsters have been seen in the show:
*** Flutterbat is almost identical to Fluttershy's accidental bat pony transformation in the show episode "[[MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E7Bats Bats!]]"
*** Aurora Dash is a windigo, a wind spirit first seen in "[[MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E13HearthsWarmingEve Hearth's Warming Eve]]"
*** Tatzlpony is based on the Tatzlwurm from "[[MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E11ThreesACrowd Three's a Crowd]]".
*** Clarity is a crystal golem, which greatly resembles (and may be the same as) a crystal pony, first seen in "[[MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E1TheCrystalEmpirePart1 The Crystal Empire]]".
*** Twilight is a breezie, first seen in "[[MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E16ItAintEasyBeingBreezies It Ain't Easy Being Breezies]]".
* OhCrap: Twilight's face on realising that not only has she given herself away unnecessarily, but she's done it right in front of one of her old enemies.
* OverlyLongTongue: Tatzlpony's defining feature. It's longer than her whole body, prehensile, strong enough to hold up its own weight whilst carrying a pony, and she has at least two of them. If she's related to the Tatzlwurm, then it's possible she has three, although the tongues aren't always visible (she's able to fully contain them inside herself).
* NeatFreak: Clarity hates getting dirty so much that she places disposable tissues wherever her hooves are about to fall, so that they don't touch the ground. At least until she runs out of tissues.
* PunnyName: Clarity (a crystal pony version of Rarity).
* ShoulderTeammate: Twilight rides in Pinkie's mane.
* ShoutOut:
** Doctor Whooves makes a brief cameo as a ''DoctorWho''-themed monster - specifically, a Weeping Angel.
** Pinkie Pie's attempt to solve a mathematical equation makes references to both ''{{VideoGame/Pokemon}}'' and ''{{VideoGame/Hearthstone}}''.
* SuperiorSpecies: Breezies appear to be this, looking down on ponies for some reason.
* TemptingFate:
** Aurora Dash gloats that Pinkie will never see her coming when she sneaks up to scare her. Unfortunately for Dash, Pinkie is a psychic, and manages to sneak up on Dash instead. And she's not even scared.
** Clarity muses that this couldn't be an adventure without a tiny bit of peril... and then realises that during her musing, she's walked off a cliff.
* UnwittingTestSubject: Twilight is secretly studying Pinkie, at least until she gets discovered.
* WallOfText: Happens twice - once with Pinkie's explanation of her mission, and once with Tatzlpony's attempt to make friends with a merpony. Both of them have energetic personalities, so this is to be expected.
* WideEyesAndShrunkenIrises: Accompanies Twilight's OhCrap moment upon her discovery.
