Etymology

The term banshee comes from the Irish bean sí ("woman of the sídhe" or "woman of the fairy mounds"). The banshee is a female spirit in Irish mythology, usually seen as an omen of death and a messenger from the Otherworld. In legend, a banshee is a fairy woman who begins to wail if someone is about to die.
