Discover the Creatures of Mythology

       The creatures of mythology are strange and scary to many of us.  The monsters often came from the imagination of storytellers to help explain the mysteries of sea and land.  You may be familiar with some of the more popular creatures like the Kraken, the enormous sea monster that was known to drag ships down to the bottom of the ocean.  Or, the predatory Griffin who was said to have the back body of a lion and the wings, talons and beak of an eagle.  And don't forget the Manticore, considered to be the most menacing of all mythical creatures.  This beast sports the body of a lion, the tail of a scorpion and the head of a human with three rows of shark teeth.  Yikes!!
