Book Overview Have you ever thought about the strange creatures and supernatural beings hidden in human history? From scary sea monsters to clever shape-shifters, every culture has its own chilling tales. In The Most Scary and Mysterious Myths of the World, we look at 20 of these eerie legends from around the world. Meet the Kraken from Norse tales, a giant sea monster that could pull whole ships under the waves. Explore the icy mountains to find the Yeti, the mysterious creature of Himalayan stories. Learn about the Djinn, ancient beings from the Middle East that can grant wishes, but often with a dark twist. Travel through time and space as we uncover the Naga, serpent-like beings from Hindu and Buddhist beliefs, and the Kitsune, a magical fox from Japan known for its playful tricks. Hear frightening stories about the Chupacabra from Latin America and the legendary Mokele-Mbembe, a dinosaur-like creature said to live in Central Africa's jungles. From England's ghostly Black Shuck to the Native American Thunderbird, which is said to create storms with its wings, each myth has a unique and spooky story. You'll also meet terrifying beings like the Wendigo from Algonquian tales, a spirit of hunger and greed, and the mournful Banshee from Irish folklore, whose cry signals death. In this book, you will also encounter the Nuckelavee, a skinless horseman from Scotland, the shape-shifting Popobawa from Tanzania, and the Golem from Jewish stories. Be cautious of the water-dwelling Kappa from Japan and the eerie Mothman, an American legend that appears before disasters. Remember to listen for La Llorona, the crying woman from Mexican tales, and the Bunyip, the scary creature hiding in Australia's swamps. You will also meet the Kelpie, a water spirit from Scotland, and travel back to ancient Greece to confront the Minotaur, the creature that is part man and part bull, stuck in a maze.
