Is there a difference between a squid and a krakken?

Is the mythical beast of the kracken/krakken/kraken (however you want to spell it, really just a giant squid? Or is there a difference between it and squids? If it is just a giant squid, wouldn’t that mean that with the latest findings, that they are actually real?…or at least could be a reality verses just a myth?

Answer #1

The Kraken is believed to have been created when giant squids (which do still exist) were reportedly seen attacking ships, but there is little argument against the fact that the Kraken is, indeed, some sort of cephalopod.

Answer #2

So there is a possibility that a kracken may actually be a real animal, some sort of giant squid, verses just a myth?

Answer #3

So there is a possibility that a kracken may actually be a real animal, some sort of giant squid, verses just a myth?

Answer #4

You have to remember that many myths may have come from very real things that have been exaggerated and blown way out of proportion. Yes, the “kraken” could have very well been real, but it’s not likely that it was quite as large or fierce as the stories would have you believe.
