Banshee

he banshee in Irish Gaeilge, is called 'bean sidhe', which means 'supernatural woman'. She is envisioned with a sunken nose, scraggy hair and huge hollow eye sockets. Her eyes are fiery red from continuous weeping. She wears a tattered white sheet flapping around her. She wails outside the door of someone who is about to die, but only for old families. All the best clans have their own private banshee



Pretty scary yeh!!!???



Actually many years ago I did watch a film (can't remember what it was called) but I do recall the horrible wailing coming from the banshee. Would not like to meet her on a dark cold night.

If you like what you read here and would like to help me reach my London Marathon target for ActionAid-you can donate online at http://www.justgiving.com/michellesmarathon it’s secure and money goes direct to ActionAid.

Creepy! That is so funny that your mom is keeping you going, too. My mom stayed up late last night emailing me cheers and just logged back on at 7:00 to give me more cheers. I guess mom's all over are the same. :)
