I hope you'll explore the areas that you may not be as familiar with along with the creatures you think you know well. To that degree I'm going to lump all of the mythologies together.
As this list of mythical creatures starts to grow the Greek monsters will probably shrink down relatively, but the truth is, Greek monsters are the heart and soul, and in many cases the origin of where our more modern monsters come from. But then again, how could you have a site called "Gods and Monsters" without mentioning myth's most famous beasts? You might notice that a lot of the monsters listed here are from ancient Greek and Roman origin. Of all of the projects here on, compiling a list of mythical creatures and their stories is going to be one of the toughest. So forgive me if I'm a little slow on putting this list together. I'll be honest, putting together a complete list of mythical creatures is intimidating, mostly because there are so many.
