The rise of the guardians portayed Jack well. He is the embodiment of winter and in my opinion the a fairy for youths. I loved this episode, i cant wait for the next one.
Speaking of antagonist figure, the Frosty the Snowman sequel is where I first learned about Jack Frost. But like the Grinch, he was redeemed in the end.
Thank you Mythology Unleashed for expertly breaking down Jack Frost's roots in ancient folklore and mythology. A Brr-illiant watch for the winter solstice season❄️
About time. Was watching rise of the guardians yesterday and search for myth or origins about jack frost like krampus or other folklores in youtube but to no avail. Finally you guys made the first origin documentary story about Jack Frost
The slavic winter goddess Moranna/Marzanna could be an interesting topic for a winter video. Besides the mythology around her there are the end of winter/ beginning of spring traditions some areas still do.
Wow, another unexpected cover. People only know this by Shin Megami Tensei franchise since the mascot of the game is Jack Frost. Seeing this make me even "Chill" in night XD
my fav depiction of Jack Frost is in Rise of the Guardians,not only because I love animation,but also because,living in Italy,I didn't hear of him before watching that movie. I'm pretty sure we have our own Jack Frost or we have a different name for him,but he's not as popular here
Perhaps the next Winter topic could be the Gaelic Cailleach Bur? I know she started in Scotland. Not sure if she ever made it to Wales. Blue skin, red/orange teeth, and only one eye. She is The Vailed One. Queen of Winter. Creator of the Isles.
This was a character whose history i knew nothing about. This was so informative! I would definitely love to see more in-depth videos for these old winter gods. That would be fascinating. 😃 And favorite version of Jack Frost has to go to "Rise of the Guardians." Wonderfully engaging character in a fun movie.
Could you please cover The Morrigan? Or details about The Questing beast? Heard the latter's story on your channel, around a year ago, and it's been haunting me ever since..
As in the story that Frozen is loosely based on? Unfortunately that story isn't a myth or a folktale, it was written by Hans Christian Anderson! But if you're referring to any number of the goddesses and winter spirits who are referred to as the "Snow Queen" then that's another story!
I would like to hear about Suzy Snowflake ❄ more. She's basically like Jack Frost but a female symbolism of winter. (She sounds like the perfect girlfriend for Jack Frost if you ask me).
Great video thank you for all you do on here! I probably like Jack Frost in Rise of the Guardians best but I have a limited set to pick from don't watch too many Jack Frost movies.
In Slavic Mythology and Pre Christian traditions we have Marzanna/ Morana who's a Godess of Winter and Death, but a literal personification of Cold, Snow and Ice is a deity known as Deda Moroz, who in former Yugoslav republics is lnown to bring gifts around the New Year
In Hans Christian Anderson's classic fairytale "the Snow Queen" it mentions another such character. The way Anderson explains it snowflakes are like bees and like bees they have a queen.
Here’s another personification of winter, of more recent vintage than the ones in this excellent video: Heikki Lunta. He was dreamed up in 1970 by David Riutta, who worked at a radio station in Michigan’s upper peninsula, where they have rather authoritative winter weather. The story is that a snow mobile club had scheduled a race, but snowfall was uncharacteristically late in arriving that winter, and they feared that they might have to cancel. David Riutta hastily invented the character Heikki Lunta, a sort of snow god from central Finland, who could be invoked to make it snow by singing a special song, to which Heikki liked to dance. Mr. Riutta also created the song, a very brief little ditty that he came up with in only twenty minutes or so, and performed on the air. And the snow began soon thereafter. The Heikki Lunta Winter Festival, a sort of celebration of the winter season and of community, still takes place annually in parts of the upper peninsula of Michigan. When I first learned about this, only a few months ago, I had to wonder whether this was something like the way that the old classic folk tales that we know began.
Great series. You might want to consider the winter witch in tales of narnia too. Freezing everyone with her magic, until the summer sun (Aslan, Jesus) returns to blow warmth and release them from the spell.
Yes, an entire series on the winter gods from different cultures would be really...cool.
Yeah, I said it.
The rise of the guardians portayed Jack well. He is the embodiment of winter and in my opinion the a fairy for youths. I loved this episode, i cant wait for the next one.
Living in hot dry Australia, I love hearing all the stories of snowy winter creatures. I love Jack Frost in Rise of the Guardians.
Speaking of antagonist figure, the Frosty the Snowman sequel is where I first learned about Jack Frost. But like the Grinch, he was redeemed in the end.
So there is a legend bout Jack Frost, I was beginning to think that there isn’t one about him.
Thank you Mythology Unleashed for expertly breaking down Jack Frost's roots in ancient folklore and mythology. A Brr-illiant watch for the winter solstice season❄️
I remember Jack Frost from the rise of the guardians movie and from the old stop motion Christmas movies 😊
As a rotg stan for eleven years this comment section gives me life
Jack Frost nipping on your nose

Also Deda Moroz
My favourite Jack Frost is definitely Rise of the Guardians
Mine to
Same
Same here.
same!!
That's my favorite one as well. The version of him in The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause was probably the most relatable for adults.

I always love all animated movies about Jack Frost but I might try to find something about The Gaelic Cailleach Bur to see what’s to be seen.
This was a character whose history i knew nothing about. This was so informative!
I would definitely love to see more in-depth videos for these old winter gods. That would be fascinating. 😃
And favorite version of Jack Frost has to go to "Rise of the Guardians." Wonderfully engaging character in a fun movie.
This channel and specifically the narrator is better than Netflix!!
Can you do videos about the Tooth Fairy, the Sandman, The Easter Bunny, and the Bogeyman?
As they're all figures of folklore, yes we can and will!
Bro rounding up the cast of Rise of the Guardians but forgot North, for shame
@@gremlininblue2601 Santa Claus is North!!
@@garveyneal1672 ik lol, did they do one already? I'll have to check it out
I like 1979's Jack Frost
I enjoyed that. Thankyou
Great video, thanks MU.✌️❤️🌍🌌
Yes more please
Don't forget about Surt, the evil undead Frost Wizard.
My favorite Jack Frost is the Rankin Bass Jack Frost.
Could you please cover The Morrigan? Or details about The Questing beast? Heard the latter's story on your channel, around a year ago, and it's been haunting me ever since..
We could swing that!
So glad to hear that!
You should do the Snow Queen next.

But if you're referring to any number of the goddesses and winter spirits who are referred to as the "Snow Queen" then that's another story!
@@MythologyUnleashed Understandable. Even though it’s just a fairytale, I was just wondering about that.
I would like to hear about Suzy Snowflake ❄ more. She's basically like Jack Frost but a female symbolism of winter. (She sounds like the perfect girlfriend for Jack Frost if you ask me).
@@christineking2855 Never heard of her, honestly.
@@DaughterofAnubis you can look up her song
I'd love full videos of all the winter deities.
Great video thank you for all you do on here! I probably like Jack Frost in Rise of the Guardians best but I have a limited set to pick from don't watch too many Jack Frost movies.
I am learning about the geometric constructs of the Flower of Life and the elementals of fire, earth, air and water so yes to all of them. 🌼🔥❄️🕸️⚡👀
New mythology acquired
Near Montreal, Canada, three days before Christmas, no snow... Thank god there's YT!
The MST3K version is my favorite Jack Frost movie! 😂
Love this! More on the winter beings please!
Don’t forget to cover the personifications of the other seasons across cultures.
jack frost was always my favoriet in rise of the guardians❤❤😎
The best Jack Frost features Shannon Elizabeth in her first film and is a decent B horror movie.
You should make a video talking about giants.
There needs to be a Christmas Mythology video about Mariah Carey.
Can you mythology about the 7 Deadly Sins? Like Lucifer, Asmodeus, Satan and Beelzebub?
Please more elemental videos!
Happy Solstice ❄️
This was interesting! And i would really enjoy more videos about the gods and spirits of Winter.
Great video and I think Rise of the Guardians is my favorite.
My favorite is Jack Frost in Rise of the Guardians, like what everyone else says.
In Slavic Mythology and Pre Christian traditions we have Marzanna/ Morana who's a Godess of Winter and Death, but a literal personification of Cold, Snow and Ice is a deity known as Deda Moroz, who in former Yugoslav republics is lnown to bring gifts around the New Year
A very good and very informative video!

I remember in 70s Toronto asking my mom who put cracks in the road in our crummy neighborhood she said Jack Frost I was 4 so I believed her Hahahaha
❤🤍💙 all your videos mate👍
I love this! I would love to see more on Skadi and Old Man Winter please :) And especially the Chinese Goddess :)

You don't hear about Jack Frost as much anymore not enough modern stories or depictions
MORE WINTER STUFF
Rise of the Guardians for sure, It shows his mischief and loneliness that would come with being invisible and unable to be heard by others.
Rise of the Guardians has my favorite Jack Frost
Nice video
Loved this video.
FYI Cailleach is pronounced like Kyle-luck!
The best Jack Frost wasn't mentioned, hee-ho 😢.
Do tell!
Go for the a series of elements that were made "people". Just like Jack Frost
An episode about the Norse goddess Skadi would be cool
I wonder if it’s possible to build Jack Frost as a “Dungeons and Dragons” character.
Winter eladrin?
@@LunaticoniSolar , Exactly!!
Feels like he'd be a arch fey npc but hey you can be anyone in your games.
Would love to see a video on the individual winter spirits from Native American lore or Celtic🥰🥰🥰💞💞❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️
You should definitely do a video on Pitch Black aka The Boogie Man!
Elsa from Frozen would definitely like him. 💙
There's a story about him called King Frost.
I would like to see a video on Tengliu
In Scotland, we have our version of Jack Frost which is Beira goddess and queen of winter from celtic mythology ❄️
You forgot to mention he and Elsa the snow queen of Arendelle are romantically connected. (There’s also the Slavic figure of winter, Ded Moroz.)
yeah,in FAN FICTION
@@gianmarcozampella5138 I still ship it!
@@jacobshore5115 I'm happy for all of you who ship them,but I don't why,even loving both Elsa and Jack,I can't get myself to like the ship
Rise of the guardians
Can you do spring heeled jack please
Way ahead of you!
th-cam.com/video/0CZs3LSOUB0/w-d-xo.html
In Russia there is Grandpa Frost (D'ed' Moroz) who works like New Year version of Santa Claus.
Great series. You might want to consider the winter witch in tales of narnia too. Freezing everyone with her magic, until the summer sun (Aslan, Jesus) returns to blow warmth and release them from the spell.
Hee Ho!
👍🏾
Michael Keaton's worst role since he played the Yeti in Little Bigfoot.
I'd love more indepth old man winter.

Jack Frost is not only a wintery artist but the king of winter as well. 💙🤍❄️🌨☃️⛄️
