Summary
Stories relating to the supernatural.
The contributor talks about the 'bean-nighe' [the fairy washerwoman]. A sighting of her was supposed to forecast a death. He also tells the story of 'Cù Dubh Mhic a' Phì' [MacPhee's Black Dog]. The dog was believed to be of no use, until the night he chased off a supernatural being which was trying to get into the house.
