The Netflix fantasy series The Witcher, based on the book series of the same name, stars Henry Cavill as Geralt, who uses his magical powers to protect the world and fight all kinds of mythical beasts and monsters. While some of the show’s legendary creatures may be quite familiar to audiences, like elves or djinn, others are taken from mythology that is less popular in America.
However, you shouldn’t view the show as a mythology textbook, as a lot of things have been changed to fit the story. Let’s take a look at the real mythology behind The Witcher.
