mythological beings
Gods and monsters
Mythological beings are creatures from myth, legend, and folklore—gods, monsters, spirits, and fantastical animals that populate traditional stories across cultures.
Dragons, unicorns, centaurs, and phoenixes are mythological beings, as are deities like Zeus or Thor.
The term encompasses any supernatural entity whose existence belongs to narrative tradition rather than documented reality: The forest was said to be home to mythological beings that protected travelers.
