Well, it depends. Just because the story is based on a real story doesn't necessarily mean the serpent is a literal, physical snake. It could be a symbolic serpent representing something in the real - life events, like a person or an organization that acts in a sneaky or dangerous way, much like how a snake is often seen in literature. But if it is a more straightforward account, then it could be a real snake.
Giant Snake Island was a small island located near Dalian port, with an area of about 1 square kilometer. The highest point on the island was 215 meters above sea level. The west and north were bare cliffs and cliffs, while the southeast was distributed with four ravines, lush vegetation and snakes. The discovery of Snake Island could be traced back to the early 1930s. At that time, people were sent to the island to survey the site for the construction of a lighthouse, but they found that the island was full of poisonous snakes. After Snake Island was announced to the world, the Lao Tieshan Nature Reserve was established in 1963 to protect the birds and snakes that fed on birds. There was no exact data on how many snakes there were on Snake Island.
Well, 'The Serpent' takes inspiration from actual incidents. It weaves a narrative around real-life circumstances, but with some creative liberties for dramatic effect.
Well, it could be inspired by real elements but not necessarily a 100% accurate account of something that happened exactly as told. Many such stories blend fact and fiction.
Definitely. In the comics, Jughead's character took on the role of being a Serpent at some point. This development added an interesting twist to his storyline.
