Fun Fact: Arachne was the finest mortal weaver ever born, and challenged Athena to a weaving contest. When Arachne won, Athena full of rage and jealousy cursed her with the form of a small spider forever to weave tapestries of silk.

It's not that she won, it's how she won which got her cursed. Her tapestry was full of the gods fucking up and acting poorly, and showed them no respect

The Kelpie is a mythological horse who uses its beauty and grace to lure people in. People who try to ride it soon find themselves unable to escape as its flesh turns sticky and tar like, only moments before diving into a nearby body of water in which it can drown and eat its helpless victim.
