We've all heard famous tales of ancient mythical creatures like dragons, unicorns, and giants, but even today, people from all around the globe continue to report sightings of various mysterious monsters! So, we reached out to our readers to share any stories of such creatures from their own countries.
A) Hi, I'm Kevin from Inverness, Scotland! You've probably heard of our famous Loch Ness Monster, known for its humped back, long tail, and snake-like head. But did you know that reports of this strange creature date back to the 6th century? The first modern sighting occurred in 1933 when a couple driving home saw a creature rolling and diving in the lake. Since then, there have been over a thousand recorded sightings and even some photos taken of Nessie. Some speculate that Nessie might be a surviving dinosaur called a plesiosaur, but the truth remains a mystery.
B) Greetings, I'm Jens from Norway, and we have the legend of the Kraken, a terrifying deep-sea monster said to be a mile and a half across. As ships approached, the Kraken would wrap its giant tentacles around them or create a violent whirlpool to drag them down to the ocean floor. Giant squid, believed to be the inspiration behind the Kraken, do exist. In 2007, fishermen caught a ten-meter-long squid with eyes the size of dinner plates and sharp hooks on some of its tentacles off the coast of Antarctica. However, the true size of these creatures and whether they've ever sunk ships remain a mystery.
C) Hello, I'm Mary from Oregon, USA. As you may know, there's a strange, big, hairy creature known as Bigfoot (or Sasquatch) that's been part of American folklore for years. Since the 1800s, there have been over 3,000 reported sightings of Bigfoot, described by most witnesses as a two-legged creature standing two to three meters tall with long arms and a short neck. Investigators have determined that its footprints, measuring around 40cm in length, couldn't possibly be human. Some scientists speculate that Bigfoot might be a species of extinct ape, but so far, no body, fossil, or skeleton has been found to confirm this theory.
