  1. Bean Sidhe
    When Tom O'Brien was going home from work He saw the Bean Sidhe behind a ditch up Clonard road. She was moaning and combing her hair. When Tom saw her he took to his heels and never stopped till he reached home.
    His mother met him at the gate and told him that his cousin Mary O'Brien was dead. Then he understood why he met the Bean Sidhe.
