Phrike

Phrike

The Greek god or goddess of horror.

*More than likely, Phrike was a goddess because the names of gods usually ended in "es" (Ares, Hades), "os" (Kronos,Dionysos), "on" (Poseidon,Aion) or "or" (Alastor,Castor).

*Female deities' names ended with "e" (Athene, Aphrodite, Amphitrite), "is" (Physis, Khloris), or "o" (Enyo, Deino).
