The Monster Who Birthed Legends of Terror | Ep84

Beneath the earth’s surface, where light dares not linger, resides Echidna—a creature whose beauty and horror intertwine in a form that haunts both gods and mortals. Half-woman, half-serpent, she is the mother of some of the most notorious monsters in Greek mythology. From Cerberus to the Hydra, Echidna's children have become legends in their own right, yet she herself remains a shadowy figure, lurking in the dark recesses of the world. Born of primordial chaos or divine mischief, her power is as unsettling as her legacy. She is a force of nature, a matriarch whose very presence spells doom, her immortality a reminder that some forces cannot be contained—only survived. Dive into the myth of Echidna, where monstrous creation and the threat of destruction are inseparable, and discover the untold depths of a creature who is more than just a villain—she is the dark heart of myth itself.
