ABOUT SCOTTISH FOLKLOREScotland has a rich tradition of storytelling and fables that have been passed down through generations. I have included some of the most creatures found in Scottish folklore, as well as a number of lesser-known monsters from Scottish folklore that are not as famous as the Loch Ness Monster or the Kelpie. Here are those I have chosen to focus on:

The Selkie: This fable tells the story of seals that can shed their skins and become human. They are said to be capable of great magic and often lure humans into the sea.

The Kelpie: A shape-shifting water spirit that is said to inhabit the lochs and rivers of Scotland. It is known to take the form of a horse and lure unsuspecting travellers to their doom.

The Brownie: A helpful house spirit that is said to come out at night and perform chores for the household. They are known to be shy and reclusive but can become mischievous if not treated with respect.

The Loch Ness Monster: One of the most famous Scottish fables, the Loch Ness Monster is said to inhabit the depths of Loch Ness and is often depicted as a giant, serpent-like creature.

The Fairy Folk: A collection of stories about faeries, also known as the "wee folk", who are said to inhabit the hills and forests of Scotland. They are known for their mischievous nature and love of music and dancing.

The Each Uisge: Also known as the water horse, this creature is said to inhabit bodies of water such as lochs and rivers. It appears as a beautiful white horse, but when someone attempts to ride it, it plunges into the water, drowning the rider.

The Nuckelavee: This creature is a demonic horse-like monster with a man's torso instead of a head. It is said to be one of the most fearsome creatures in Scottish folklore, capable of causing disease and destruction wherever it goes.

The Bodach: This creature is a spirit that is said to haunt old houses and ruins. It appears as an old man and is said to be friendly to some but malevolent towards others.

The Bean Nighe: Also known as the washerwoman, this creature is said to appear at rivers and streams, washing the clothes of those who are about to die. It is a harbinger of death and is said to be an omen of bad luck.

The Am Fear Liath Mòr: Also known as the big grey man, this creature is said to inhabit the mountains of Scotland. It appears as a large humanoid figure covered in grey fur and is said to be responsible for causing fear and panic in those who encounter it.

These are just a few examples of the many Scottish fables that have been passed down through generations. There are many more fascinating creatures and legends to be discovered in the rich and vibrant folklore of Scotland. Each one offers a glimpse into Scotland's rich cultural heritage and the imagination of its people.

Please enjoy reading!

Fond Regards,
Alistair Grant
