The Gorgons, in Greek mythology, were three monstrous sisters: Medusa, Euryale, and Stheno. They were often depicted as having snakes for hair.
History
It is unknown whether the Gorgons ever actually existed. However, a Gorgon's head appeared on the floor of the main room of Gallowmere's hilltop mausoleum in the late 14th century.[1][2] A Gorgon also appeared on the floor of a room in the Wulfrum Hall, a vampire residence in London in the late 19th century.[3]
