Mythical Menagerie

fiction · EN

Welcome to the Mythical Menagerie. Pull your chair a little closer to the fire, mind the damp by the door, and listen well. Each week, the Curator opens another dusty drawer from the archive to examine the strange creatures humanity has carried through myth, folklore, literature, and the tales travellers whisper. Some are beautiful. Some are monstrous. Most are at least a little tragic. From forgotten spirits lurking in ancient towers to things waiting in marsh water for unwary travellers, the Mythical Menagerie explores the stories behind the world's most fascinating mythical creatures. Expect folklore, cryptids, literary beasts, eldritch oddities, strange history, and creatures both magical and horrific. The fire is lit. The kettle is on. The Menagerie awaits.
