Mythical Creatures: Mongolian Death Worm By Aaron Johnson, Joel Anderson, 2022
- Mythical Creatures: Mongolian Death Worm
The Mongolian death worm is a creature alleged to exist in the Gobi Desert. The creature first came to Western attention as a result of Roy Chapman Andrews's 1926 book On the Trail of Ancient Man. According to legend, the dreaded Mongolian Death Worm — which local people call olgoi-khorkhoi or loosely translated, "large intestine worm" — has lived up to its name. It can kill in several fearsome ways, including spitting a stream of corrosive venom that is lethal to anything it hits. Inspired by the legends of mysterious creatures and mythical monsters from around the world, Anderson Design Group poster artists hand-rendered a vintage-styled poster of this Mongolian desert terror. This classic monster design is available as a poster print, canvas, metal sign, mini-canvas, or as a notecard or postcard.
