In the medieval times the people had a very big imagination. They believed in many things that today, we find absolutely crazy. Some of the things they believed were true are crazy and we wonder why they believed in those things. They believed in many different monsters other things. They had one story where there was a man in the water and when they took him out the water he would not tell them anything about how he lived in the water. He wouldn't tell them even when he was tortured. They also believed that there used to be people that had dog heads. They thought even though they had dog heads that they were still completely human and acted like humans. There must be some reasons they believed in all of these and also where they came up with these stories. Since they thought that the world was going to end and that judgment was coming upon them all the people were afraid so that is probably why they were so anxious and afraid of everything.
