What is hatched by a cockerel from the egg of a serpent and is reputed as the king of serpents?  It's not a riddle...it's a Basilisk! This week, Megan tells us about this mythological creature found in European Bestiaries and legends. The basilisk is known for appearing in Harry Potter lore and for killing people with one simple look.
