The Banshee: The Irish Death Messenger

Rating:
Summary: Fascinating and readable
Review: I became interested in the banshee because of some research I was doing and was delighted to find a scholarly work on the subject. While it is obvious that a remarkable amount of research went into writing the book, it is still readable for the layman.

Every aspect of the banshee from different names, connections with certain families, aural manifestations, visual manifestations, to legends of the banshee are included.

If you are interested in Irish folklore and the banshee in particular, I highly recommend this book.
