A MAMMOTH collection of Scottish Legendary Creatures and Mythical Monsters. From bestselling author Aaron Mullins comes the ultimate guide to 55 fantastical creatures of Scottish folklore. Discover the Myths Discover the origins of each Scottish mythical creature, as tales unfold from a land teeming with werewolves, sea monsters, and fiendish ghouls. Examine the Evidence Live through the firsthand experiences of those who have confronted formidable mythical beings in Scotland and lived to tell their tale. From newspaper reports, to eyewitness accounts, we examine the evidence gathered by researchers from across the land. Unravel Ancient Mysteries Ancient Scots were very curious about the world around them and their fantastical explanations of natural phenomena often involved the creation of mythical creatures with amazing powers. Which ones were created, and why? Scottish Legends Stories of selkies, kelpies, the Loch Ness Monster, and other Scottish folklore creatures have always captured the imagination. The mythical unicorn is the national animal of Scotland and many travellers have gathered around campfires across Scottish hillsides to hear fascinating stories of mysterious blue men, sorcerous shapeshifters and ferocious sea serpents. Learn the Truth How can you tell if your child has become a changeling? Which female vampire hides her hooves from human eyes? Where can you capture a mermaid who will grant you three wishes? Within the pages of this book, you'll find not just information about Scottish fairy tales, but an immersive exploration into the heart of Scottish mythology - a realm where the line between folklore and reality blurs. Discover the answers to these questions and many more within this book of Scottish legends, myths, and folklore creatures.
