The Kraken (/ˈkreɪkən/ or /ˈkrɑːkən/) is a legendary sea monster of giant size that is said to dwell off the coasts of Norway and Greenland. A number of authors over the years have postulated that the legend originated from sightings of giant squids that may grow to 12-15 meters (40-50 feet) in length, despite the fact that the creature in the original tales was not described as having tentacles and more closely resembled a whale or crab. The sheer size and fearsome appearance attributed to the kraken have made it a common ocean-dwelling monster in various fictional works.
The English word kraken is taken from Norwegian. In Norwegian and Swedish, Kraken is the definite form of krake, a word designating an unhealthy animal or something twisted (cognate with the English crook and crank). In modern German, Krake (plural and declined singular: Kraken) means octopus, but can also refer to the legendary kraken.
In the late-13th-century version of the Old Icelandic saga Örvar-Oddr is an inserted episode of a journey bound for Helluland (Baffin Island) which takes the protagonists through the Greenland Sea, and here they spot two massive sea-monsters called Hafgufa ("sea mist") and Lyngbakr ("heather-back"). The hafgufa is believed to be a reference to the kraken:

Link to Sam's BE AMAZED Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkQO3QsgTpNTsOw6ujimT5Q The history of the Kraken goes back to an account written in 1180 by King Sverre of Norway. As with many legends, the Kraken likely originated based on sightings of a real animal, the giant squid. Back then the any encounter with an unknown animal could gain a mythological edge from sailors' stories. After all, the tale grows in the telling, especially when that tale involves a slimy dangerous sea creature that has been known to attack humans and boats - Even as recently as 2003 one attempted to take down a french sailing yacht! However, as giant squid aren’t likely to surface, others claim that volcanic activity is a better explanation for these myths. Underwater volcanic activity is common around t...

Libres son los sentimientos,
como espíritus salvajes,
Aunque estemos sin aliento y las fuerzas con el tiempo
se hayan ido de viaje,
En estas junglas de cemento,
Se vive o se muere,
Eres amo de predios o el esclavos de otros reinos.
En esta extraña y gran ciudad, me siento ausente,
Simplemente si no estas,
Y en las afueras, de mi fortaleza,
Lanzo al viento una oración,...
Y pregunto,... Donde has ido?,
Tu que viajas por mis venas y te desplazas cual tormenta en ellas,
Corazón, corazón felino,
No detengas tus latidos,... ni pronuncies el olvido,... por favor.
Ayúdame!,... a romper el hielo de mis miedos con la magia de tu ángel,
Ayúdame!,... que las sombras de otros cuerpos no me asombren ni se apropien
de mi carne.
En este extraña y gran ciudad, entre la gente,
Sólo encuentro soledad,...
Y pregunto, donde has ido?,...
No es igual estar vivo, que existir en el olvido,
Si mi sangre es tu vino yo confió en tu instinto felino,
