I love to read about different mythological monsters and folk lores. One of my favorites is the Kraken because I am afraiad of the ocean myself and it gives almost an eerie feeling to being near. The Kraken is said to be a giant octopus that can wrap its tentacles around ships to sink them, as well as swallow them whole including the people occupying it. I think it could be real because in the deep sea it is said that there are species of giant octopi and there could be one that is bigger than most.
