Best Answer

The Gorgon in classical mythology was a monster who turned you into stone if you looked at her. Macduff makes this classical allusion when talking about the sight of the murdered Duncan: "Approach the chamber, and destroy your sight With a new Gorgon: do not bid me speak; See, and then speak yourselves."
