Boring Greek Myths For Sleep | 6 Forgotten Creatures from Greek Mythology

Описание: Boring Greek Myths For Sleep | 6 Forgotten Creatures from Greek Mythology (More Terrifying Than Medusa)


Close your eyes and drift back to ancient Greece, where the most terrifying monsters weren't the ones you've heard about. Tonight, we explore six forgotten creatures from Greek mythology that were considered far more dangerous than Medusa, the Minotaur, or the Hydra.
In this deep sleep story, you'll discover the chilling tales of Lamia, the queen who devoured her own children and became an eternal hunter; the Empusa, Hecate's shape-shifting servant who wore familiar faces; the Keres, dark-winged spirits who fought over dying souls on battlefields; Mormo, the child-stealer who haunted nurseries; the Strix, women transformed into blood-drinking creatures between bird and human; and Lamashtu, the oldest monster of them all, who chose her path of terror.
These aren't your typical bedtime stories. These are the creatures the ancient Greeks genuinely feared—the ones parents whispered about after dark, the ones that required protection charms and rituals, the ones that represented humanity's deepest fears about loss, transformation, and the things we cannot control.
Perfect for history lovers, mythology enthusiasts, and anyone who finds comfort in ancient stories told in a calm, measured voice. Let the weight of these ancient tales gently guide you toward deep, restful sleep.
