All canons for this exchange must be publicly available, and to help you find the tales and even versions you want to ask for, here's a list!



Fairy-tales, legends, folklore, cryptids, and where to find them:

• Project Gutenberg (especially this bookshelf of fairy-tales, the mythology bookshelf, and this bookshelf of children's literature)


• Wikisource (as well as making use of Wikipedia's category pages with examples like: Scottish Legendary Creatures, American Folklore, and Canadian Legendary Creatures)


• Andrew Lang's Colour Fairy Books


• Sur La Lune Fairytales


• University of Pittsburgh's Folktexts


• Sacred-Texts (Suggested sections: The Classics, Legendary Creatures, and Legends and Sagas)


• The Thousand Nights and a Night, which has several classic translations of the 1001 Arabian Nights


• The Internet Classics Archive


• Theoi.com - From the site: Theoi Project, a site exploring Greek mythology and the gods in classical literature and art. The aim of the project is to provide a comprehensive, free reference guide to the gods (theoi), spirits (daimones), fabulous creatures (theres) and heroes of ancient Greek mythology and religion.
