Creatures from HELLas
In this category you will have to guess if the creature we present you is from a horror movie or from the ancient Greek mythology! Enjoy!
Strix
Let me introduce to you a not so famous kind of creature, the strix. You will have to guess if it comes from the ancient Greek mythology or from a vampire story...
The strix is a kind of daemon, half a woman, half a bird. Their name means “night bird”. They have a woman body with birds' wings and birds' legs with long talons. Their eyes are yellow and round and they are screaming loudly during the night.
Occamy
You might know this little guessing game already. It is time for another episode of creatures from HELLas, where we present a creature every week and afterwards it is our audiences' part to guess if this creature is either a part of the Greek mythology or just an invention of Hollywood.
Sphinx
"Which creature has one voice and yet becomes four-footed and two-footed and three-footed?" Do you know the answer of this riddle? I would recommend to think about this very carefully. If you aren't able to find it out, the Sphinx will strangle you, bite your throat and holds it down until you will die. This creature rather sounds like an invention of a horror movie, doesn't it? Or is it a creature of the Greek mythology?
Dschinni
Today on Creatures from Hellas I want to present you something really special. We are not talking about an animal, neither a person, today I want to introduce you to Dschinni, a ghost. But what is so special and interesting on a ghost? Well actually it is a bit more, than a usual ghost and not only because he has a mind. First of all he looks a bit like a human.
Damned sailor
There is a creature known by all seamen, a figure so horrible, it fills even the bravest of all sailors with nervousness and fear. Of course, there are no real monsters, this is just a made up tale. The question is: Who invented the creature I am about to describe? Was it an ancient Greek storyteller or did a more modern mind produce this idea?
Cerberos
Today we will have a closer look on a creature and later you can decide if the creature is part of the Greek mythology or an invention of Hollywood.
Basically, the monster I am going to talk about, is a dog called Cerberos.
But of course the Cerberos is not a usual dog as you or your neighbours maybe have at home.
