I feel this is probably a lost cause, as I've posted on a different subreddit specific to deleted fanfictions before with no results, but I loved this fic so much I figure it's worth another go of seeing if anyone has any information.

The fic was called ATEEZ UNDERGROUND, posted by user anonytiny sometimes in october of 2019. The members were spies in an underground crime agency, and it was incredibly well written, with in depth world building and lore and files for each of the characters.

This is a link to a tumblr post about the fic, with the fics exact description and tags—

And this is the link to the original fic page before the author presumably deleted their account—

I don't know. I read it back when I was younger, before I knew to download fics I loved. If I could find someone that has the fic saved, or find the author somewhere else so I could reach out to them, it would be amazing. I am aware that the chances of this working out or being possible are slim to none, but I've always kept all this information saved in the slim hope that someday I could find them again and tell them how much their fic has stuck with me. If anyone is willing to help me in my search or knows anything about this, I would appreciate it deeply. Thank you for your time.

Me and my little brother are looking for a childrens (?) book from our youth, but can not find literally anything online even resembling it and I'm starting to think it was a joint fever dream shared by the two of us.

It was I think like an encyclopedia of sorts. Not a story, but a compendium of monsters / creatures, sorta wood drawn / grungier style of art, like it was done messily with pen. Each page would be a different monster, with their name and a description of it of sorts including how to avoid them or protect yourself from them. Not real monsters, made up ones for the sake of the book, I believe. A specific one my brother recalls, he describes as "coat hanger man." Not his actual name, of course, but all we have to work with.

Coat hanger man—with no kid in sight, the drawing was of a closet, with sliding doors, and in it there were a bunch of clothes hanging up. In the middle was him, a guy / monster. Not a scary monster in the sense of lots of teeth or something, but he was mostly white, outlined and mildly shadowed. Not grotesque or a demon, just like if a guy had a coat hanger in his back who would hang in your closet pretending to be a coat or clothes. And then would eat you or kill you or something.

I dunno, I feel as though we both remember it so vividly but can't remember enough to actually find it. Any help would be appreciated !!<3
