2. Púca
The Púca, or “pooka,” is a shape-shifting entity in Irish folklore, known for its mischievous and unpredictable nature. It can assume various forms, including a black horse with glowing eyes, a dark dog, a goat, or even a hare. While often causing confusion and fear, the Púca is also believed to offer guidance and protection when treated with respect (irishhistory.com).
