Is fadbhunaithe an creideamh i láithreacht domhain pharailéalach agus i bhfeiniméin an tsaoil eile atá i dtraidisiún na hÉireann agus leantar le gnéithe an chreidimh úd a bhrath i sochaí chomhaimseartha na hÉireann.
Belief in the existence of a parallel world and in otherworldly phenomena has long been established in Irish tradition and facets of such belief continue to be found in contemporary Irish society.
This book, with two accompanying compact discs, examines aspects of the enduring belief and fascination which the Irish imagination has with supernatural beings, encounters and occurrences as represented in song and music. The material contained in this publication which includes recorded sound, photographs and manuscript transcriptions is drawn from National Folklore Collection/Cnuasach Bhéaloideas Éireann in University College Dublin. It is edited by Ríonach Uí Ógáin and Tom Sherlock and published by Comhairle Bhéaloideas Éireann.
