Are Leprechauns More Than Folklore? | World's Most Unexplained 113

Dr.Docs' Take

Ireland has been reporting little folk for centuries, and this film asks the beautifully unhinged question of whether the whole island is just being too polite to admit something real. I do not believe in leprechauns, he clarified nervously, while checking under the nearest hedge. It is folklore that flatly refuses to retire, and I respect that kind of persistence. A charming, daft detour, and sometimes I need one of those between the abductions.

Alleged sightings of leprechauns and small fairies is nothing new in Ireland. It’s said they’ve been around for hundreds of years. And while many Believers claim they’re part of Irish everyday life, others say you don’t come across leprechauns every day because they are rare, shy and elusive. Pots of gold and wishes granted is what’s promised if you catch a Leprechaun.
