Neverland Mermaids

Origin
Mermaids appear in Peter and Wendy and in adaptations of the story. Their portrayal matches the happy fantasy of pretty women with fish tails but, also the dark legend of creatures that try to drown humans.

The Mermaids live in the lagoon. They enjoy the company of Peter Pan but, seem malevolent towards anybody else, including the fairies. In J.M. Barrie's world, mermaids are dark and dangerous creatures. They lounge around in the Mermaid Lagoon without a care in the world. This is also the location of Marooner's Rock. It is not safe for mortals to visit Mermaid Lagoon at night.
