Leprechaun ( Mythical Creature )

Hello guys and welcome to our third post. For the third post I would like to tell you all a little details about the one that has caught my attention which is Leprechaun.

  The Leprechaun legends says that he is a fairy on the Irish folklore, which also its linked in the USA to St. Patrick's Day festivities. The first apparition of a Leprechaun, was on the medieval tale of "Adventures of Fergus, Son of Leti", in one chapter Fergus falls asleep in the sand of the beach, and when he wakes up, finds himself being dragged into the ocean by three Luchorpians. He captures the creatures, and they offer Fergus three wishes if he let them go.

  I find this mythical creature quite interesting because based on the Leprechaun legends, they are usually described as solitary creatures, which their main occupation its to fix or make shoes, putting away all of the coins they receive from this job in a pot of gold hidden in some place that just they know. Leprechauns are really short, no bigger than 24 inches, love to make jokes, not sure whether it's sarcasm jokes or practicals jokes.

  Moreover, the reason that I like Leprechaun its because of their characteristic. It is said that they are good finding at the end of the rainbow which is a very tricky thing to do, finding a crack of gold in there. Another theory that been says is how they got their gold, its explain by William Butler Yeats, who says that "All of their wealth comes from treasure which had been buried from old wars times. I think it probably set time when the Vikings invaded Ireland. Another interesting thing to told you viewers in Leprechaun Legends and had been affirmed by Colin Chapman is that " "Leprechauns are given to excess. Nothing appeals to a Leprechaun like a binge of whiskey Guiness, pipe tobacco and snuff, and despite their small stature, they can handle surprising quantities of alcohol".

  Also, we're used to see a Leprechaun with its typical green attire. Well, for your information Leprechaun attire depends on what part of Ireland he lives. For example, the Northern Leprechaun ( Logheryman )wears a red coat and white breeches, with a broad and brimmed high pointed hat. For the next one is the Lupgrigadawne ( Tipperay ) wore an antique slashed jacket of red, white peaks all round and a jockey cap, also has a sword which he uses as a magic wand. The last one is the Cluricawne ( Monaghan ) wore a swallowed, tall evening coat of red white green vest, white breeches, black stockings, shinny shoes and a long cone hat without a brim, that also was used as a weapon.

      The conclusion that can be made from the statement above is that Leprechaun are real ideas. While we never see a Leprechaun, as they don't exist in the physical world as far as we know, they do exist in the minds of some people. Leprechaun are real to those who believe in them especially the Irish folks. There is a difference between existence and reality though. An experience can be real without physical events or expressions. But if they do were exist, I'll definitely will catch one or three of it and order them to find a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow for me. Well that's all the detailed that I can filled it and share it with you guys. I hope you enjoy and had a very wonderful day.

 Oh and one more thing that I forgot. If you haven't watch the movie Leprechaun: Origin, I just simply leave the trailer here. If you are interested with the movie below, then please do enjoy the movie ( 2014 ) It turn out to a be a horror movie though. Also I put the old movie too, Leprechaun in The Hood ( 2000 ). Please do enjoy reading our third post. :)
