The evil gods 'unnamed good beings' are terrifying in myths
The goddess Hel, the god of war Sekhmet, evil god Chernobog . are little-known gods in myth.
Let's review the three mysterious "evil" gods little known in ancient myths, according to the list of Listverse below.
1. The goddess Hel
There are many myths about Deaths in the world like Hades in Greek mythology, Pluto of Oriental mythology or Egyptian Anubis . Besides a little Death is mentioned - that's god Hel.
Hel is described as an evil spirit who aspires to bring death to humanity.
Hel is a female death god of Norse mythology. Hel is described as an evil spirit who aspires to bring death to humanity. Hel has a strange and frightening body, the upper half of the body is a woman with sharp eyes, a half body under an ulcer that even the gods feel terrified to look at. And more specifically, if an ordinary person accidentally saw Hel, the blood in their body would freeze and hit the road 'meet an ancestor' immediately.
In the world of the dead, Hel sat on a scary throne decorated with skulls, bones and snakes. In front of Hel is the "book of destiny" or "the book of the dead".
Every time a naked person or a god leaves his life in hell, the notebook will show their names and backgrounds as well as their crimes when they are alive.
Thanks to that notebook, Hel was able to manage countless souls as well as giving them proper jobs in this cold, sad hell."Heavenly Book" does not have a fixed page number, when the page is over it will automatically add a new page when there is a soul leaving the earthly place.

According to legend, after a fierce fighting, if the blood thirst of the god was not satisfied, Sekhmet began slaughtering all living creatures throughout the land. And to appease her, the gods sent a vial of blood-like medicine, to contain Sekhmet's madness.
