EuropeIsNotDead already published an article on European monsters, and it seems that you rather enjoyed it. It’s true, we sometimes have a passion for bad boys and vile creatures. It may have something to do with our inner gothic selves… But what about nice and harmless creatures? The ones we would love to host in our houses or set off for an adventure with? The ones we tend to disregard because they are too kind or too cute to be frightening? It’s time for changes! The following list of European creatures pays tribute to the most amazing magical and mythological beings of the old continent. You will discover that some creatures are fascinating. They can make you rich in Ireland, bring you gifts in Italy, warn you of upcoming troubles in Turkey, dig you out of an avalanche in Switzerland or protect your city in Czech Republic. They can speak our language in Belgium, fly in Greece, teach strangers to play the fiddle in Norway or… make roosters crow in Bosnia. Some are quite funny, others, rather powerful and most of them, very mysterious.
