Happy St. Patrick’s day y’all!
As many people know, the most classic Irish creature is the leprechaun! Rather than trying to steal your lucky charms however, these mischievous little guys are most likely to play practical jokes on you or make you a pair of great shoes. Leprechauns are considered a solitary type of fairy, who traditionally wore red and little hats, are predominantly found in later Irish folklore. So if you’re ever in Ireland, keep an eye out for these little guys or you may get tricked!

The Shtriga is an Albanian vampiric witch that can give you the evil eye 🧿 but may also drain your blood. The only way to survive the attack is to have her spit your blood back into your mouth!! These creatures have been featured in many TV shows, including Supernatural.
