Theseus encounters the giant named Procrustes in Greek mythology. Procrustes is known for his cruel practice of fitting travelers to his bed by either stretching them or cutting them down to size. This brutal method ultimately leads to his downfall when Theseus defeats him using his own twisted methods against him.
