Being of solid Irish stock, we were raised to fear the banshee.

We never knew what they would do or what they wanted but our elders reminded us to either do or don’t do some thing to avoid the screams of the banshee outside our windows at night.

We now live in a high rise unit — we’re not bragging but it is impressive to have a two story double-wide trailer home — so the banshees’ wailing would be heard by our downstairs neighbors. We doubt they would hear the noise but they would act as a good sound buffer for us.

This all comes up due to our tripping over this article on the very topic.

It is not strictly magic, but it is mystical; so it sort of counts.
