Best Answer

Depictions of the kraken show a giant tentacled monster that is clearly some sort of cephalopod (octopus, squid, or cuttlefish). The closest creature to this known to science is the giant squid.

Is the kraken a real thing?

I think yes. Why else would there be so many paintings and drawings of a colossal creature that looks like a squid taking down ships all the way to the depths. I honestly do not think they were lying when they painted them. So YES i think it does OR at one time did exist because it might be dead by now. I also think yes and i even heared a story about it a couple years ago. it was about a squid with hooks on its tentacles and it was the as long as ten busses. they captured it and took it. they did research on it and it was only a baby one so to this day they don't know how big they get and some think they don't exist at all. But that story i heard got me to trust it was real. But we are not sure if it still does.
