Irish Mythical Creatures: All About Demons, Ghosts and Monsters in Irish Mythology

By Trident Books

Step into the enchanted and often terrifying world of Irish mythology, where ancient spirits dwell in fairy mounds, shapeshifters roam the countryside, and supernatural beings guard the threshold between life and death.

This comprehensive guide reveals the haunting creatures that have captivated Irish imagination for millennia from the death-heralding spirits whose cries echo through the night, to the shapeshifting water dwellers that lure the unwary to watery graves. Discover the headless harbingers of doom, the blood-drinking undead rising from their graves, and the mischievous fairy folk who can bestow either blessings or curses upon mortals.

Explore the malevolent beings dwelling in Ireland's lakes and rivers, the fearsome giants representing chaos and destruction, and the protective household spirits who reward respect but punish neglect. Through tales drawn from ancient manuscripts, oral traditions, and Celtic lore, uncover how these supernatural entities shaped Irish culture, belief systems, and the Emerald Isle's legendary mystique.

Essential reading for mythology enthusiasts, Celtic culture students, and anyone drawn to Ireland's rich supernatural heritage.
