Fairies

Faeries, also known as fairies, fey, or fae, were first mentioned in Old French romantic tales. These supernatural beings or ghosts have been mentioned in various myths, folklore, and stories throughout history and even today. Most people imagine small, winged, mythical creatures when they think of fairies or faeries. Fairies were rarely depicted with wings outside of Victorian paintings. According to legend, fairies were said to travel by sorcery and often hitch a ride on the back of a friendly crow.

Gorgon

Like Medusa, the Gorgons were terrifying creatures capable of turning their prey to stone with a single glance. The Gorgons were a strange mix of lovely and terrifying, with their most distinguishing feature being that they wore live snakes instead of fur. Gorgon myths teach us not to be fooled solely by appearances.
