Well, first, you need to do thorough research on the person. Know their life events, the era they lived in, and the social context. Then, blend in fictional elements to make the story engaging while staying true to the essence of the person's character and achievements.
Sure, it can. Many fictional stories draw inspiration from real people's lives, traits, or experiences. Authors often take elements from reality and build a fictional narrative around them.
Generally speaking, novels should avoid directly describing real people in history because it might violate the intellectual property rights and historical value of others. In addition, the evaluation and description of historical figures should also be based on their personal experience, personality, behavior and other aspects of imagination and understanding, rather than directly copying historical records. Of course, in some cases, the novel might refer to or hint at real people or events in history in some way. In this case, the author of the novel had to be careful to ensure that it did not negatively affect the image of historical figures or historical events, nor did it violate the intellectual property rights of others. The creation of a novel should respect history and intellectual property, and try to imagine and portray it appropriately.
I recommend the following two novels to you, both based on real characters: 1. " That Year the Cherry Blossoms Have Not Fallen ": This novel described the life experiences of three generations for 20 years. The story covered campus, growing up, work experience, family, marriage, workplace conflicts, and so on. The characters were all based on real characters. The story was closely linked, reflecting the different family backgrounds in contemporary society through emotional issues, and the impact of educating the next generation. 2. " The Psychologist ": This novel tells a suspense story based on psychology and chemistry. The author himself is a psychologist and a chemistry worker. The cases in the book are adapted from the author's true story. The book contained a lot of real science knowledge about psychology, chemistry, and other sciences. It did not affect the reading, and it could also give you a warm feeling and experience the joy of knowledge.

Yes, often real boogeyman stories are based on real people. For example, the killers I mentioned before like Albert Fish and John Wayne Gacy are real individuals whose heinous actions made them into figures of extreme fear, much like the boogeyman. Their actions were so terrifying that they became part of the horror stories that people tell to this day.
