- With St. Patrick’s Day right around the corner we thought we would talk about some Irish Fairy Tales, or more specifically the fairies that live inside the fairy tales. Just a fair warning though, these fairies aren’t quite as happy and helpful as our beloved Tooth Fairy or Tinkerbell. In fact, some of these fairies are downright scary and have got us thinking that we might just need to start celebrating Halloween on St. Patrick’s Day instead. So let’s sit down and go through some Irish Fairy Tales.

The banshee calls for those to die.
The dullahan comes for them.
The two often travel together, according to lore.
Sooo.....my friend and his lady, from high school?!
Banshee is the respell of the real spelling *Beansidhe* which is pronounced more like B-ahN-ShEE.
I love the fact people don't know pooka means ghost
What does dullahan mean?
Just a name
@@corettaha7855 its it's a man who rides a horse and carries his head under his arm. The headless horse man, like the film sleepy Hallow with Johnny Depp
its spelt puca
@@ciaran6309 I'm spelling it out the way it's said so non-irish know what word I'm saying
(Oh btw if u can remember Púca- Ghost you are good at irish)
Pooka saved a poor fox from being torn apart needlessly. Sucks for the dogs but teach that human a lesson . Those woods are protected.
Also of note, leaving an offering of crop makes them also harvest spirits. As in what people once called gods of agriculture, and some want sacrifice.
pu fada c a. Puca its spelt.
Happy St.Patrick's day! 2022🥳💚🧚♀🐲🍀🟢🟩
What kind of monster pronounces dullahan that way?!
Joshua Davis americans lmao
@@user-go3jv8rw7i first time I've ever heard anyone mispronounce it so badly.
🤣 ... I'm American (but of Irish ancestry & spirituality).... It frustrates me to no end how folks mispronounce "Celtic" (re: the sports team) & how they completely butcher the sacred holy-day: "Samhainn"! 😥 ~ But, honestly, we can probably thank the English for most of the destruction of the Gaelic language.
lets remember the irish also invented hallowe'en. meaning all hallows Eve.
Samhain
@@EmmaAppleBerry Samhain - pronounced SAH-WIN. Never SAM - HAIN. In Irish the combination of MH sounds as a W or sometimes a V.
As for Halloween on Saint Patrick's day, do you know that Halloween was inspired by Irish festivity that used to take place the same time Halloween is celebrated.
Very nice
If a horse offers you a ride you should probably go see a doctor.
Brilliant
or stop drinking the rocket fuel your on ....
Teig O'Kane and the Corpse is a weird story for those who want to know the true cruelty of fairies!
I'm in australia and have seen a banshee before at a lake
I have heard stories of the death carriage from a man who was out lamping one night he never said he seen it just that he could hear the horse hooves and lashing of a whip.. My grandparents also have seen the banshee when they were young.
Mon the lads
@@seanquinn5805 Erin Go Bragh
@@Tommy-bp5qr Sorry Tommy. This is am anglicisation. The correct form is Éire go Bráth.
"Pooka" u sure it isnt just a horse?
"Seeing isn't Believing, Believing is Seeing."
DON'T KNOCK IT 'TIL YOU TRY IT!!!
This is why more people need to believe in Fairytails.
its puca, its an irish word. it means ghost
The Irish words for horse are Each (poetic and historic and pron. Akh) and Capall (more common modern usage). It's not really a ghost/apparition , the Irish for which is generally 'Taibhse' (pron. Tivesheh). Púca can be a kind of hobgoblin. It may be the origin of Shakespeare's Puck.
Hi guys 🙂
A pooka is a ghost
U spelt pooka wrong it’s púca
And dullahan is pronounced doo-la-vawn
Púca meaning ghost in irish
great synthesis, thanks. and please check Skeletons in the Cupboard, by Gaby Plumm. It's SO related
Like the giant rabbit.called a pooka?
pookas seem like chads
You're joking, surely? These fairies are WAY better than the Disney versions!
Púca*
Delahunt is the Headless Horseman's cousin which which one of them was Head of the Class💀😱🦲☠🙈dullahan oops
My deamons sit across from me ...alwaysr
I’m Irish and that music in the background is so fucking annoying! I
The pooka just sounds like a normal horse
It's come to the point where I've clicked on these videos just to see how bad the pronunciation is butchered.
jjjj
1. Púca: Grand, but I'd say the plural would be Púcaí or Phúcaí
1.5. The Horseshoe is the wrong way around, it's supposed to catch/collect luck, not pour it out.
2. Dullahan: Where I see a lot of Americans go wrong is inflection, i.e., stressing the wrong syllables, also putting in fadas wherever, which is plain incorrect. The narrator here seems to say "Dúllahán", ratherk than Dullahan, which. I would either pronounce trochaicly, or the same way one would pronounce Mulligan (DUL-lahan)
3. Banshee, grand. First syllable stressed as it should be
4. Changeling, doesn't count I guess.
5. Grogoch. And once again, putting fadas where they oughtn't be. 0/10
Would you be willing to help me out with prononciations?
Beansidhe is really two words: Bean (woman) Sidhe (of the Sidhe). However, it is pronounced Ban Shee.
So @Bloomhouse Pooka is based of mythology
More folklore than mythology, I would say
I am just cringing at the horrible pernounciation. Dullahan is pernounced as Doo-luh-hahn.
2:37 - that doesn't look like an evil horse.
Cu chulainn
Where on earth did you get this rubbish, none is true.
does anyone else find this racist?
Why would it be RACIST? Wtf is EVERYTHING racists nowadays? Good grief!!!
NO
Whats so racist?
How ?
Irish people aren't a race. And even if we were, how would this be offensive?
