(N.Morgan) The Banshee came to America with the Irish, when the great immigration into this country was made. The Banshee is a warning of an imminent death, the banshee is thus a death omen. Either someone has already died, or is about to die, then the banshee will reveal itself to the living, always family members. The banshee is connected to a specific family, either of Irish or Scottish heritage. These are the only two peoples, who can claim to have banshees haunting them. Banshees sometimes also appear to the person, who will soon die, this terrifies the person in question. Banshees cry for the dead and they are doomed to carry out their frightening duty until dooms-day

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The banshee is a spirit from Ireland. Its name comes from “bean sidhe,” which means “woman of the fairy mounds” in English. This spirit is always female, even in the Scottish tradition. She is considered to be a omen of death or a messenger from the Otherworld. The banshee relays these foretellings of death by keening loudly on the dark moors at night. Her sounds of mourning are a cross between a scream and a moan, causing chills of fear to travel along the spine of any human close enough to hear her. Her looks can vary though. Some stories tell of her being a frightening hag that is the epitome of ugliness while others say that she can appear as a breath taking beautiful woman. The important fact to remember though is that hearing her screams are actually a warning of coming death for you or a close loved one.
