Trivia[]
- The Basilisk is a legendary creature that looks like a snake and has a deadly glance.
- In the Harry Potter series, the Basilisks are also snakes with deadly stares, though when someone indirectly looked at its eyes it would have a petrifying effect instead.
- The Basilisk in Winx Club however looks more like a Wyvern, which is a dragon with only two legs and whose forelimbs are wings, than like the snake-like Basilisk of legends
- The Basilisk's power is similar to the mutant jellyfish that attacked the Winx in The Shimmering Shells and to Medusa from Greek mythology whose stare could turn people into stone.
- According to the official Winx Club website, the Flying Basilisk is a type of Dragon.
- This is the second legendary creature that appears in two episodes.
