Our history is filled with all sorts of stories and legends about ghosts, vampires, werewolves, and other mythical creatures, legendary monsters, and supernatural beings. Most of them, of course, are fiction, others – probably too, but, it’s possible that a tiny part of those stories is true. Instead of talking about the same old Hollywood monsters like the aforementioned vampires and werewolves, we’ll look at some little-known, but just as mysterious creatures from legends and mythos of different countries, cultures and continents.

25 Exceptional Dollar Bill Origami Examples
One of the coolest Japanese arts, aside from Kendo, is indisputably Origami. It’s an ancient art of folding paper, and while it may sound meh, once you’ve tried you yourself – you’re hooked! Too bad we can’t see any of the first origami pieces, since the paper isn’t very good at keeping it together for more than a hundred years or so. The art of folding the paper became popular around 200 years after it boomed in Japan.

This sub-genre of origami later became known as Orikane (“paper money”).
So here’s the question: if you could choose between an awesome origami piece, and a crisp $20 bill, which of the following masterpieces would you try to recreate?
