The Legend of the Kraken

For centuries, sailors spoke of a terrifying beast — a creature so massive it could drag entire ships beneath the waves. They called it the Kraken.

But was the Kraken pure myth, or was it inspired by something real lurking in the oceans?

In this episode of The Deep Dive, we trace the legend of the Kraken from ancient sea shanties to modern science, explore the truth behind giant squid sightings, and uncover why this creature still haunts our imaginations.
