Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The moura encantada is a supernatural being from the fairy tales of Portuguese and Galician folklore. They often appear singing and combing their beautiful long hair, golden as gold or black as the night with a golden comb, and promise to give treasures to whom sets them free by breaking their spell. According to José Leite de Vasconcelos, mouras encantadas are beings compelled by an occult power to live on a certain state of siege as if they were numb or asleep, insofar as a particular circumstance does not break their spell . According to ancient lore, they are the souls of young maidens who were left guarding the treasures that the mouros encantados hid before heading to the Mourama. The legends describe the mouras encantadas as young maidens of great beauty or as charming princesses who are "dangerously seductive".
