This House, as Hercules, Would stay in the human world. (Bless my soul)
View Info Slide
Info Slide
Hercules is the mortal son of Zeus who grew up with some superhuman abilities (eg strength) in the human world. He fought against evil powers in the form of trials set by the gods. He fell in love with a human, Megara. After being deemed worthy by the gods and achieving the status of a hero he was invited to live forever on the Olympus among the Gods. No human is allowed to join him, and he will not be able to return to the human world.
