My favourites are Scylla and the dragons of the old Scandinavian myths, such as the one in Beowulf and that of the Volsunga Saga.
Scylla is one of the threats between which Odyseus and his companions must sail in 'The Odyssey.' (The description of Scylla gave me nightmares, when I was younger.) The other threat is Charybdis, a perpetual whirlpool.

Skintakers, or dopplegangers
The doppelgängers of folklore cast no shadow, and have no reflection in a mirror or in water. They are supposed to provide advice to the person they shadow, but this advice can be misleading or malicious. They can also, in rare instances, plant ideas in their victim's mind or appear before friends and relatives, causing confusion. In many cases once someone has viewed his own doppelgänger he is doomed to be haunted by images of his ghostly counter-part.
Other folklore says that when a person's dopplegänger is seen, the person him/herself will die shortly. It is considered unlucky to try to communicate with such a dopplegänger.
