    1.Unicorn
    The unicorn is a legendary creature that has been described since antiquity as a beast with a single large, pointed, spiraling horn projecting from its forehead. Some writers in history were so convinced to consider the creature to be real.However, none(scientist) have ever proven its existence. Some mythological powers and beliefs associated with unicorns includes;its horn can neutralize poisons,it can only be captured by a virgin,its presence can heal the skin etc. Up to this very age,people still claim they sight unicorns.

    2.Mermaid
    It is a fabled marine creature with the head and upper body of a woman and the tail of a fish. Merman is sometimes used to refer to a male of this creature. Many cultures believe strongly in their existence and some worship them as goddesses. It is believed by some that mermaids can fall in love with humans and have the ability to bestow special gift on humans. Despite no concise discovery or scientific explanation of mermaids,many humans still claim they see them occasionally.

    3.Dragons
    A dragon is a legendary creature, typically scaled or fire-spewing and with serpentine, reptilian or avian traits, that features in the myths of many cultures around world.
    A lot of stories, books,shows and TV series have been made about the creature over the years making the creature seeming more realistic. The truth is,dragons never existed.

    4.Centaurs
    They are mythical creature believe(d) to be a tribe of half-man, half-horse savages who inhabited the mountains and forests of Thessalian Magnesia.
    They were a primitive race who made their homes in caves, hunted wild animals for food and armed themselves with rocks and tree branches. They were considered to be very aggressive and strong. But they never existed but rather mentioned in Greek mythology.

    6.Vampires.
    They are undead beings who subsist by feeding on the blood of the living. At the moment,larger part of the world believe in the existence of these creatures. Around the 19th century, the belief in the existence of vampires in Europe was so strong that the dead were staked(punctured with wood) in the heart to prevent them from returning to life as vampires and greater deal of persons(not proven) were accused of been vampires then. However,vampires don't/didn't exist. At least, science and history haven't proven their existence.
