Shadow People/Creatures are definitely #1 for me. So mysterious.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_people

#2 would probably be Hydra, because I like serpents, and heck... It's a 9-headed immortal monster that grows back two heads for every one it loses. What's not to love?

The Common-sense beast of Washington D.C.

Werewolves, Chupacabras, and The Jersey Devil.

Eh, favorite mythical beast... Umm, Well.. I think the beast Gilgemesh faught with the mouth on it's...err... penis, was interesting, to say the least.

But, hmm... I'd like to say 'good people' are my favorite mythic beast. Heh. The great unreality.

Seconded by the Catoblepas. You can't beat Catoblepas. Oh, and Baldlanders may be in there too...

I will have to say "Dragons" they represent...
-Wisdom
-Strength
-Wealth
Etc.

werecats, a lot different then werewolfs and are 500% cooler than werewolfs

Know what's really cool? All the Zooanthropes roster from Bloody Roar!

has to be a vampire for me:)

what is a Zooanthrope?

Were-animal.

^OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH thanks

I like the Esquilax!

"Behold, out of the mists of time, the legendary Esquilax, a horse with the head of a rabbit, and the body....of a rabbit."

that was almost funny

I think that's from monty python.

^IMHO...it's funny!

I thought it was funny. Some people are just humorless.

i have 2 favorites that i cannot decide betwen, the werewolf and the vampire, the werewolf with its untamed fury and iron will to do what it wants and not obey anyone else,the brute strength of these creatures just appeals to me, and the vampire, incarnate of evil as some people say, survives living off of others, hides among the living, just to pick them off, to me they are so...interesting, i dont know why, but those 2 have to be my favorites

Simpsons:P

Me it's the vampire .

mothman.

my #1 would have to go the the widely popular, Gryphon.
#2 goes to the Manticore.

My first love is a dragon My second love is a werewolf.
I think Cerberus is a nice one, too.

I like goblins.

Fairies!

talking animals, always good for a laugh

Pokemon =)

My favorite mythical creature? The honest politician.

Madusa is REAL! I was married to the b**** for 9 years!!!!!

Definately the aequoreuscryptoslephalopolysfrendorhinoceripollexdillophylodendrakylisaurus .....
but thats just me...
kidding, sasquatch for me.
my best answers award goes to to: Pull my finger: Honest politicians.. LOL good 1

Cryptid: The BearWolf -inspired by the recent sightings here in Wisconsin.


Below is a detail from one of a series of illustrations i'm doing based on different sightings in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Illinois.

That's creepy!!

I would have to say that my favourite would have to be the monster birds in America that I heard about.
That gave me nightmares...and had a hand in my fear of magpies.

My favorite is Pegasus. What do you want? It not only flies...but you can ride it. And if you start to fall, you can always grab the horn on its forehead.

I like you way of thinking.

Agree, Pegasus!!!

Iv'e always been fond of the mythical beings that inhabit dwellings, such as the Brownie or Domovoi. To me it would be cool to have a little being running around my house cleaning it and protecting it from evil spirits. I'd just have to treat it nice and leave out food for it. (although some have very certain rules and restrictions so say the myths....)

I don't know, I just always found them cool, and underappreciated in the legend category; seeing as how so many beleived in them in the old days.

either dragons or the minotaur

Mine would be the unicorn or the winged dragon (a la McCaffery)

Did Pegasus have a horn on it's forehead? I thought Pegasus was a winged horse and a unicorn had the horn. Two different things?

Just for the record, the Thylacine is not a mythological creature. Neither is the Pleidiasaur.

But I think that if I could be a mytholigical creature, I'd be a Leprachaun. The gold, the green, the glamour, not to mention those sweet, sweet, leprachaun women! Leprachauns are small enough to hide, innocent enough not to get taken down by some hercules dragon slayer, and rich enough to get humans to do their bidding for them!

I don't think Pegasus had a horn Ethyl, just a winged horse that kicked serious ass

my favourite cyptif would have to be el chupacabra, i mean, a small creature with massive spines and huge eyes, and sucks internal organs out through tiny holes, i mean, how cool?

Ah yes, the Mexican Goat Sucker! A classic!

I'd have to say my favorite mythological creature would be Big-foot. He was a loner who hated the popular mosters, yet longed to be one.

(Five points if you got the referrence)

i have 3 favourite mythological creatures, amongst many other which i like too

1. the classic vampire, gothic style type, thats too classy
2. elves, i find them mystical.
3. the inari fox.. a japanese god in the form of a fox having several tails which mean power.

another fave of mine is Nessie, the alleged monster of loch ness. i especially like the Wetherell Fiasco, with the daily mail and all that, he was such a raud, but a good one, he fooled the nation.
he was also involved in the surgeons photo, when that gyno from lodnon got a photo of the monster. it was only revealed as a hoax on wetherells stepsons deathbed as a hoax, whcih to me i think is devotin, even if it is a bit stupid. overall kudos to you maramaduke, youve done us proud.

another thing, does anyone know where i can get some info on mokele mbembe?

links would do fine ppl

watch the skies!

My favourite monster is the one that lives in my backyard (well, the lake in my backyard), the Igopogo (aka Kempenfelt Kelly). It's too much fun, having your own dog-faced Nessie wanna-be less than 20 feet away!

Other than that, I was raised on stories involving the Daoine Sidhe and was threatened more than once with a visit from a Púca... You can bet that kept me in line! Not to mention the stories about the fear dearg... Yeesh, even 25 years (or more) later, they still give me the shivers!
