There is a myth about Lamia that interested me. In this one she is the daughter of Belus and Libya. Libya won Zeus’ heart and Hera became jealous of the unicorn and retaliated by killing all her children fathered by Zeus. In anger and frustration Lamia went into a cave and unleashed her anger by killing offspring of human mothers by sucking the children’s blood. Her actions turned her beauty into ugliness, but when she seduced men she briefly regained her beauty.

Mythical Creature Fun Fact

In Orcadian Folklore there is a creature that resembles a centaur whose legs are semi fins and had an enormous gaping mouth and a single giant eye that burns with a red flame. That still isn’t the most nasty detail, that honor goes to the fact that he is skinless, giving you a sight of the black blood that courses through his yellow veins, and pale sinews with powerful muscles visible as a pulsating mass. The Nuckelavee does have a weakness. If you run across him then all you have to do is cross a stream. He despises running water.
