Plot

The eternal cycles of birth and death; pleasure and pain; love and loss and reality and fantasy have always been at the heart of Irish mythology. Here fairies and demons walk hand in hand with mortals and anything…anything can happen. These tales are sometimes frightening, usually insightful, and always entertaining. But one does not have to be Irish to appreciate these marvelous stories, for as the great Irish poet, W.B. Yeats wrote, "everyone is a visionary if you scratch him deep enough."
