The Kraken is a legendary sea monster that is said to dwell off the coasts of Norway and Greenland. It is described as a giant, squid-like creature with tentacles that can reach up to 60 feet in length, and eyes the size of dinner plates. The Kraken is said to be so massive that it can drag down entire ships with its tentacles and devour entire crews.

The origins of the Kraken legend are unclear, but it is believed to have originated in Scandinavian folklore. The first written accounts of the Kraken date back to the 12th century, in the writings of the Norwegian historian and chronicler, Snorri Sturluson. In his writings, Sturluson describes the Kraken as a creature so large that it was mistaken for an island by sailors.
