Creatures from your culture
Snakes, poisonous or not, don't bother me. Neither do spiders, mice, other various insects and small critters. No you want to see me head for the hills screaming like a little girl...bees. Since I am allergic, and they hurt when they sting to boot, I am a big sissy when it comes to them. I can face down a snake with a hoe without flinching, I see one bee and I am cowering under the bed wimpering. (Ok maybe not that bad but close).
Warning, may cause confusion, blindness, raising of eybrows, and insanity.

Here in Poland we have no many special creatures from mithology maybe cause we are very christian country.
Yes I ve heard about some werewolves, but most popular are local devils and worst is propably Boruta
And about baba yaga; she flying on a broom, and she like to eat childrens.
There are a lot others witches, and they meet on the top Bald Mountain

Real animals beats any mythology fantasy monsters any day:
I could find more, but I better stop here.

I'm surprised this creature wasn't mentioned before.
Legends have it that a few bold men saw it, and one survived, It was so ugly and strange that noone believed it had really existed. Later a community picked up on the ancient legends of the sighting and used it to make a game called Heroes of Might and Magic a bit more humerous. The beast was called: The Giant Mutated Whale.
Also I live in Holland which is (according to politicians at least) a multicultural sociaty. That means that all mythical creatures are somehow entangled in my culture, because many cultures are entangled in mine.
