If you want it a bit creepier you can live in a village that would roughly translate into "Dwelling of the dead":

. . . .

But as the wikipedia article states: The creepy name derives from an entiry different origin ;-)

It does. Monster is also a dutch word, with the same meaning as the English monster (horrid creature), but can also be used as synonym for "a sample".

In this case, the name of the village probably comes from the same word as the English "Monastry". Other places have the same etymology, e.g. the city Münster in Germany.

I think the horrid creature meaning and the sample meaning are cognates (both from Latin for 'show', in one case because the sample is made for purposes of showing it to someone, and in the other case because you can't look away, so to speak). (Or because the gods wanted to show you that they were displeased with you, maybe.)

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/monster#Dutch sure it does. Probably not how this town got its name, but it does.

I figured that. Neither does *UCKING, Austria have the same English meaning:
