Absolute gem of a channel. It's been a pleasure to watch this channel grow. Please continue to keep our people's folkish legends and oral traditions alive.

love every thing Scottish greetings from Lebanon 🇱🇧

Oh, what can be better than to sit in front of the fire at nigh, listen to and share Scottish folklore and be utterly and delightfully scared and spooked... 🥰 P.S.: thank you for this amazing selection.

I thought I was quite knowledgeable about the folktales of the Scottish/British isles..I’ve heard only about two of these 😂

The lonely places in Scotland are places you are never alone! It's obvious lot of work has gone into this video, so thank you! If you read Adomnan's account of St Columbcill popping up the great glen. They encounter the Loch Ness monster in the river Ness and after it attacks them, it's banished from the river into the loch! Also, i was surprised that the Cailleach (of Corryvreckan among other places) was not in your list, being such a big part of Scottish folklore! A fantastic video!

another brilliant video mate

Love your passion for this stuff... I just listen because it's interesting to me.

My God, you couldn't have picked a better musical accompaniment for the Baobhan Sith segment. That "Jaws"-like sound as I heard the story gave me chills. 😨

Almost all of these were new to me; thank you! 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The loch ness monster is my favorite creature of scottish folklore but it is nice hear to about scottish folklore and nice that you are preserving the fires of the traditions of europa so will you do the welsh folklore creatures because that will preserve the fire even further in that thank you

Truly enjoyed this I did.. was unaware of most of these.. this video was beautiful.. informative.. and intriguing as well.. Looking forward to your videos of English, Irish and Welsh creatures.. Btw.. the best feature of this video is your voice.. it adds a poignant and classic note to your video.. achingly beautiful it is🌹 Jen999💜💙

Ghost pipers still looking for a place to practice after death

Loved Loved Love this!!! We only have one here in Southern Arizona...the infamous Chupacabra! Pretty sure he'd lose a fight to any of the beasts in this video, though

Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thanks so much for making it.

I heard of 1,2,4, & 5 before Thanks for this video

this is a great channel!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you! Thoroughly enjoyed this. I’m very much looking forward to your videos on Ireland and Wales! Cheers!

I have a Master's Degree in English - I loved this video! I've also discovered my Scottish ancestry from Clans MacIntosh and [Mac]Duff so I can't hear enough about Scotland. Thanks for posting!

Thank you so much for these videos, they've been helping me get inspiration to write my own Sudrian Folklore and Fairytales! As in The Isle of Sodor in Thomas and Friends, since Sodor is located between The Isle of Man and Cumbria. ^^

I love your content! Keep the videos coming!

I really love Faerie lore and other old lore, have done so since reading LOTR and Fairies at an impressionable age. Scotland has some weird, wonderful, and wicked ones! 1:26 Didn't know Shellycoat was a Border denizen. It acts like one, too, full of mischief. 4:32 The northern lands have the sort of snaky dragons that makes you understand the "worm" or "serpent" appalation. 5:27 Redcap must have its choice of living places on the Border then! 15:36 there are at least four of these listed in old collections of lore, so they must've enjoyed a following among Highland shepherds. 13:52 A few Scottish people have come to Sasquatch Chronicles over the years and claimed there is a Bigfoot-style "wild man" in the northern hills. Might this legend be a connection? 19:06 again, sounds like another Bigfoot-style creature, perhaps. 19:36 There is a beautiful old ballad about a selkie that is a man instead of a woman. Can't remember the title though.

This is the content I subscribed for.

Brilliant! This is one to keep for reference. Thanks so much! 🌟👍

I recognised a few names there but i still enjoyed the stories . A merry Christmas and happy New year to you and yours

The Nuckalavee reminds me of the Ringraithes in in Lord of the Rings. Truly terrifying 😮

I first heard the name "Ghillie Du" through Brownie Guides, as a potential name for a Six. In our pack, we had Gnomes, Imps, Leprechauns and Sprites Sixes, with matching badges. I saw in my book they also had Kelpies (which took the human form rather than the better known horse form, for some reason), the aforementioned Ghillie Du (who wore a Tam O'Shanter cap, for maximum Scottishness), Pixies, Elves and this obscure Welsh fairy called a Bwbachod (whom I found out the other day steals barstools from underneath teetotalers - THE BADGE EVEN DEPICTED HIM HOLDING A STOOL!!!!🤣) I found out that before my time, Brownies had even more options for Sixes' names, including the Tylwyth Teg from Wales, Little People from Ireland and Fairies, who were depicted with wings. I remember being a little girl and asking my Mum why there was no Fairies six. She responded that it was likely because nearly all the girls would want to be in it! I can imagine that is why they retired the name.

Wonderful summary of things I do not want to ever see! On to England!

I really enjoyed that, weldone and thank you X

love this

Great video! Glad to see you're nearly at 30K subs :)

About 4 hours from my home in Maryland is a road in Pennsylvania where it runs through a state park and they call being lattern man and there is a actually lattern man been filmed and you can tell it's supernatural it walks along the road at night.

Brilliant stories and brilliant story telling, i have only heard of maybe 5, some of these are pretty terrible, my romantic brain, i would love most of these to be helpful and happy to help, sadly most are from our darkest nightmares, i know most are warnings but I believe some are true, i will always keep aware of my surroundings and now i will check to see what could be lurking in the dark when traveling to places, thank you for your videos

Excellent video. Cheers pal 👍🏻

The Nac Mac Feegle deserve an honourary mention. Crivvens!

Thank you for the introduction to a new old world.

I live close to Linton Hill and I ended up writing a Ballad about it for a theatre project.

Well done! Would love other videos like this for other parts of the UK

excellent video. Great subject. Sort of thing i'd like to see discussed on Milleniyule too

When we went on a trip to Loch Ness for a week in Primary School, we got pranked by the guides. They told us about the Ghost Pipers and later, played bagpipe music on a radio nearby our sleeping quarters. One of the kids had a panic attack.

Can I just say well done with the pronunciations. They can be pretty tricky. I thoroughly enjoyed this video and it is obvious that a lot of work went into it. Thank you 🙏🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Just as a bit of trivia the Loch Ness Monster is known by some as Niseag (pronounced nee shack.)

I would love a video on Clootie wells!

Just seen pele tower in creswell is opening next spring after they restore it, could be a good video

Nice.

There's some horror films to be made out of all these.

The Blue Men sound like a Scottish adaptation of the Draugr.

Im wroting a book woth 'animals' from British folklore in them, safe to say, your channel is very helpful with that! I was struggling for ideas but you've helped loads. 😄

love this Scottish traditional music

I love how British folktales are always either: This creature will do your laundry if you give it sweets and booze OR This creature will eat your kids, you, your mother, and burn your house down because you looked at it wrong I love it

Would you consider mythological/religious figures seperate from folklore, particularly in the Irish and Welsh context? Love the videos!

What a great follow up to the English instalment !

In Gettysburg Pennsylvania is where a 3 day civil war battle took place between Robert Lee's Army of Northern Virginia and Gordon Mead's Army of the Potomac well both my father's and mother's family fought against each other. Well needless to say it is probably the most haunted civil war battlefield in the country. Almost daily people will hear phantom music marching of troops, phantom gunfire, shouting, screams and of spirits not just ghost but interacting ghosts. A half directly behind President Eisenhower's farm through the woods is Devil's den where the Texans and Floriadans where picked off by Union troops and killed a lot of men. Well in devil's den in 2001 my wife were waking and saw two confederate soldiers one sitting on a stone wall and the other taking to people. And at the time I thought nothing of it until the soldier on the stone wall wasn't moving it was a like looking at a 3d picture of a man with terror on his face and I tried to talk to him but he never responded. Just stared at the ground. I even waved in front of his face. That was some freaky shit. We walked and 5 minutes they were gone. I walked to the stone wall and no boot prints in the dust and no weeds trampled down. I was online around Halloween time to book a historical train ride through Adams county and came across the story of the soldiers in devil's den. I said hell no but it did happen. Mentioning our wonderful 5 star general Dwight Eisenhower who later became president his home is directly on the battlefield his land and surrounding is extremely haunted.nMaime and Dwight neven rich often would spend there days on there sun porch overlooking the woods and often the secret service officers would have go to the woods because Dwight would men walking around so of course the people protecting the president would have to check it out and find nothing. Crazy isn't it.

11:09 coffin dance cats

Happy to realise that I didn't waste my Scottish childhood all those decades ago as I recognise the majority of these 🎉

13:54 dont mind cousin phil. he always was an odd man

cat sith is actually a character in a final fantasy game, but people say it as its spelt. wonder how they will say it in the remake next year when he arrives

What about the legendary Haggis? Most notably the 'Great Crested' variety. Herds of wild haggii are said to roam the Outer Hebrides - but that could just be a baseless myth that we grew up with in England... 🤔

👍👍For a master story teller loved it

You missed out our national animal the Unicorn 🦄 and an honourable mention to the 3 legged Haggis that roam the Mountains and Glen's too 😂 or was I just drinking too much Scotch Whisky 🤣🤪

I enjoy this video very much then and I loved this video very much then.

Omg Cat-Sith! A final fantasy reference 😂

have to say never herd of the warter bulls that's a new one on me. herd a few of these thou.bought a book on scottish boarder myths and legends a while ago.

the Pavanshi looks like Edward Cullen with Bella's hair... Edward Jacob would look like that

The brownie seem to be pretty much the same as the Scandinavian "Tomte"

There's no channel description. You need one for SEO and to encourage subscriptions.

The big gray man sounds like a type of satchsqautch

I came here looking for the weird phenodoggery. Mentioned in a collection of tales about wee folk and weirds.

I am of Clan Carmichael from Scotland.

these spirit’s need to be respected

Mythology and mythical creatures and paranormal also spiritual realms also supernatural, which is what I enjoyed and believed in.

the cat sith looks similar to a kellas cat

I would like to point out the stories of Baobhan Sith; that here in the US the Native American populations have a mythical vengeful "Deer Lady" from the woodlands tribes. Beautiful woman on deer hooves who only seeks men who have done something very wrong. I have often wondered if the first Scots who emigrated to America shared the stories of Baobhan Sith with the Natives of Virginia/Carolina since they weren't always in good favour with the British rule and were "given" land out in the "frontier" to push the Natives further westward, many Scots cohabitating with the Native peoples it is likely to have happened. Or did both peoples have these existing creatures in their oral histories, bringing together the connection we as a species have as we tell our mythos across thousands of years. My paternal grandparents emigrated from Scotland in 1950s sharing faeries & Gaelic stories, here I was raised in Virginia taught both Black & Native stories from my mother's people, it fascinates me how Old World stories crossed the ocean while a bit discerning that my mother's people were not allowed to keep their histories. I appreciate these Scottish folklore videos, it keeps the memory of my grandparents alive.

Many if not all of the being's are either hybrid or full E.T's . The Baobhan Sith in layman's terms are the Vampire E.T . They are allies of the Draco E.T and in the 1800's were augmented to have no fangs . The Baobhan Sith set up the Red cross . Off world they have full fangs , here without fangs in modern times .Some super soldiers from earth have become Vampires for various reasons.

Some of these just seem like superstition, (though I'd dismiss none as such). But this feeling of dread is common enough for me to say: I think those from the lower world (not sure exactly what I mean by that) are able to reach us that way. It's like a kind of emotion based telepathy, I suppose. Anyway, here in "Dogman country" I hear of the same phenomenon.

The cu sith is basically the hellhound another equivalent is the barghest from England.

i dont want too sound like a nutcase here but i seen what i seen,,,in a place called the pete moss near blackburn west lothian,walking through it to the next town seafield,,i seen 2 big hounds running through the trees parallel to the path,and i say hounds becuase i love dogs,these wernt just any dogs,,my first instinct was oh fuck,they better not run this way but they just kept running in the same direction,then out of site,,,then i started doubting what i seen,but like i say,,,i ken what i saw that day

Odd that it isn’t mentioned that the monster of Loch Ness was not described as a serpent or a plesiosaur-like beast until the famous faked photo. Huh.

How about the Dullahan?

👍
