Yes to vampires, werewolves, and mermaids. That’d be something else if we existed in a world with all three wtf!
I would literally want to be a vampire or mermaid or both. Since I was a child, I’ve always wanted to be a vampire so I’d pester Dracula to turn me if they were real :cry:

Dragons. But specifically, Night Furies.

I mean, could anything be cuter?
Falkor the Luck Dragon is another cute one.

My aunt always used to say that these creatures did exist and were not mythological.

She said people have a tendency to discount ancient people (dismissing them as having wild imaginations), but there is proof of these creatures showing up in different cultures (separated by geography/race a lot of the time) going by different names/having slight differences but in essence, probably being the same sort of creature. Sure, it could just be cultural exchanges but I think she was onto something.

I remember coming across passages of the Leviathan in the bible and being scared but also thinking it could be a pre-historic animal/ some sort of sea dinosaur-esque thing.

As a kid I always thought they were just ancient creatures that went extinct like dinosaurs. So it was weird to learn that they were supposedly made up.

I thought that was just me. I was a full grown ass adult before I learned Dragons and Unicorns never existed.

I would love if:

Unicorns
Mermaids
Fairies (both the African type and European type)
Vampires
Werewolves
Genies
Elves (not tiny ones but the taller, more beautiful elves)

All existed

Mythological genies don't grant wishes.

In the original Arabian Nights stories the genies that were trapped in lamps didn't even grant wishes. The first appearance of genies granting wishes came from the French story The Three Ridiculous Wishes in the late 1600s.
Bummer. I'll vote for the Disney version then lol.
