Banshees
There's only one thing most of us know about banshees: They scream. But what are they?
I'll tell you. Banshees ("women of the hills" in Gaelic) come out of Irish folklore. They're women who died in childbirth and are doomed to spend the remaining years of their allotted span near deserted streams, washing blood from the grave garments of those who are about to die.
The banshee's scream is more of a wail. If you hear it, someone in your family is about to die.
Sad-scary.
Scare-o-meter rating: 7
