Charybdis is far more terrifying than her sister

She is a deathtrap for all sailors of the sea

[jackielinde]

We all know who the true monster of the sea is: Poseidon. Just ask Medusa and Demeter.

[garretmorris]

makes sense that H.P Lovecraft got all of his influences from ancient mythologies, he just explained in more detail on the various monsters.

[jacopoarmini]

I don't exactly know why, but I always imagined Charybdis to be a giant... frog, whose belly would inflate with water before she spewed it all out again.

It is excellent that you covered the changes in the story over time. These were stories in the bardic tradition, orally told and seldom written down. Hence, constantly changing. For a good reference on Greek and Roman mythos covering these stories from their earliest to their last versions, I can highly recommend Bell's New Pantheon. It was written in the 1700s and can be difficult to find; but, is well worth the effort.

Hey, that’s the thing at the bottom of my toilet!

The saying 'stuck between a rock and a hard place' comes from the myths of Scylla and Charybdis.

[V-man]

I remember being a young kid and being absolutely terrified of Charybdis. I am 21 now and Charybdis still haunts me...

[godofcola]

I never comment but I've got to say your channel is one of the few that excite me when there is a new video the way you explain things and add in a bit of your own interpretation all while telling a grand story is just wonderful dude keep it up love your content and hope to see more from it!

[Daimon-X]

Godzilla vs Charybdis... Let them fight!

[NegiTaiMetal]

Torn Between Scylla and Charybdis! It's a cool song about them by Trivium.

[justinhillard]

I can’t wait for them to add this to smite

[mariagabriellemueca]

i don't know anything abt this mythology but i'm learning it so i can understand enhypen's next comeback

[antmakov]

reminds me of the scene from Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, where Calypso (if I'm not mistaken) did the turbulence in the water

[Jormyyy]

My favorite part of reading the odyssey was when they came across Charybdis and Scylla!

Edit: and now I'm back 3 years later to touch up of Charybdis lore since now she is in Smite!

[KingLamink]

Charybdis is far more terrifying than any other greek monster, the only one I am genuinely scared of

[spudferdpowers]

If you asked me to name the first Greek sea monster I would say




RELEASE THE KRAKEN
