Kraken

For those who might be lacking in the knowledge of ships capsizing due to being taken down by a giant tentacle monster, let me clear up a few things about this mythical beast’s past. The stories of the Kraken go as far back as ancient times when the Greeks were trying to navigate the seas. As the years progressed, people would tell stories of seeing a giant monster. Some even reported that the creature was mistaken for an island due to its large size. Other accounts depict the creature with large tentacles, able to reach to the highest mast of a ship. As history moves forward, the accounts depict the creature dwindling down in size, but still large enough to bring fright into the hearts of sailors. Even to this day, there are accounts of large creatures in the deepest depths of the ocean. Of course, we have those who swear by their lives that the creature is real.
