#FolkloreThursday: One account from the 19th century tells of an encounter with the #Puca during the Kildare Hunt: `The #Pooka easily leaped across a gorge, disappearing into woodlands, but the pack of hounds hard on scent of the fox went headlong into the turbulent waters below.`
“Looking down, Grennan saw fox and hounds trying desperately to swim to safety through swirling swell; other hounds dashed against rocks were yelping in pain and dying. He wept as most of pack went under. Suddenly his sorrow give way to terror, he heard a diabolical neighing, like an animal laughing – from woods opposite. Grennan knew then it was Pooka." #Celtic
