Once upon a time a young farmer lived east of Eyjafjollum (Eyja Mountains). He was diligent and hardworking. Where he was, sheep were aplenty and he had many of them.

The Flying dutchman

724px-Flying_Dutchman,_the

“I had often heard of the superstition of sailors respecting apparitions, but had never given much credit to the report; it seems that some years since a Dutch man of war was lost off the Cape of Good Hope, and every soul on board perished; her consort weathered the gale, and arrived soon after at the Cape. Having refitted, and returning to Europe, they were assailed by a violent tempest nearly in the same latitude. In the night watch some of the people saw, or imagined they saw, a vessel standing for them under a press of sail, as though she would run them down: one in particular affirmed it was the ship that had foundered in the former gale, and that it must certainly be her, or the apparition of her; but on its clearing up, the object, a dark thick cloud, disappeared. Nothing could do away the idea of this phenomenon on the minds of the sailors; and, on their relating the circumstances when they arrived in port, the story spread like wild-fire, and the supposed phantom was called the Flying Dutchman. From the Dutch the English seamen got the infatuation, and there are very few Indiamen, but what has some one on board, who pretends to have seen the apparition.”

Why do people believe in monsters

Frankenstein's_monster_(Boris_Karloff)

Why do people believe in monsters?

Now that is a good question and one that we are going to have to take a look at from many different angles. To begin with, believe in mythical creatures has been with us for as long as man has walked the earth. We see ghosts during the night when it is dark and the next day we might be thinking about a strange creature shambling through the swamp that is behind the house we live in. Fact of the matter is we have all kinds of creatures and the answer might be different for each one.

Imagine laying there frozen and confused, not sure whether you’re awake or asleep. Imagine the fear when you notice the horrible face for the first time, the breath on your face like death in your nostrils.
