There are many kinds of mythical sexual predators among our
world, the Lamia is more. She belongs among the Greek mythology and is a female
demon who seduces sleeping men and devour children. There are many descriptions
of her, all of which include her having a beautiful upper body. One story
states that she was loved by Zeus, which earned her the vengeance of the jealous
Hera, Zeus’s wife. Hera supposedly kidnapped her and murdered her children in
revenge for the affair. This drove Lamia mad and into a cave, where her rage transformed
her into a hideous monster who snatched children and sucked their blood.
