One of the most entertaining aspects of "Jabberwocky" is that the beast, who shares a name with the title of the poem, is not clearly described, except through nonsense words such as "galumphing" and "whiffling." Though there are some concrete details such as "eyes of flame" and "jaws that bite," this open-ended description leaves a lot to the reader's own imagination. Because of this, many people have portrayed the Jabberwocky in different ways.
