The elderly couple selling the home said it was constructed in 1792 and had belonged to their family ever since.

It's curious how we are drawn towards repulsive things—car accidents, natural disasters, celebrity scandals, and the macabre—feeling guilty for our interest while being unable to look away.

Leannán Sídhe of Irish Folklore
Mention the word "fairy" to almost anyone, and they'll probably think of a tiny human that flits around with translucent wings and a trail of sparkling dust. Most of that image might come from Disney™. But if you look into stories a bit older than Peter Pan, you'll find things aren't nearly as innocent and playful as Tinker Bell.
