“When the first baby laughed for the first time, the laugh broke into a thousand pieces and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies.” --J. M. Barrie (1860–1937), Peter Pan, Act I

Can you tell the difference between a gnome and a goblin? Would you know what to do if you came face to face with a troll? And what if a grogoch moves into your house?

The many magical creatures of myth and legend have moved into cyberspace. Allow me to introduce you to some of them! 

As for the grogoch -- invite a clergyman into the house and the grogoch will flee.

Leprechauns
Click on "Webcam" at The Leprechaun Watch and you just might catch a glimpse of one of those elusive green fellows. A tiny camera hidden in a tree by a field in Tipperary beams a new image to your screen every 30 seconds. But if the leprechauns just refuse to appear on camera, you can read instead about tree spirits and all manner of Irish fairies. Watch out for pookas!
