Scottish Legends: 55 Mythical Monsters
A MAMMOTH collection of Scottish Legendary Creatures and Mythical Monsters!
From Amazon bestselling author Aaron Mullins comes the ultimate guide to 55 fantastical creatures of Scottish folklore.
Discover the Myths
Discover the origins of each supernatural creature from a land filled with werewolves, sea monsters and fiendish ghouls.
Examine the Evidence
Hear true accounts from people who have come face to face with these fearsome beasts and lived to tell their tale. From newspaper reports, to eyewitness accounts, we examine the evidence gathered by researchers from across the land.
Unravel Ancient Mysteries
Ancient Scots were very curious about the world around them and their fantastical explanations of natural phenomena often involved the creation of mythical creatures with amazing powers. Which ones were created, and why?
Scottish Legends
Stories of legendary creatures have always captured the imagination. The mythical unicorn is the national animal of Scotland and many travellers have gathered around campfires across Scottish hillsides to hear fascinating stories of mysterious blue men, sorcerous shapeshifters and ferocious sea serpents.
Learn the Truth
How can you tell if your child has become a changeling?
Which female vampire hides her hooves from human eyes?
Where can you capture a mermaid who will grant you three wishes?
Discover the answers to these questions and many more within this book.
Learn which legendary beasts may still run wild through the Scottish countryside and why handsome strangers are rarely what they seem. Let these timeless tales remind us of simpler times when the tides were the breath of a great sea dragon and thunder was the angry roar of a living god. Mythical beasts that still live on in our hearts and minds, with every re-telling of their legendary deeds.
All the best Scottish folktales are here, from Kelpies to Selkies, Dragons to Scottish Big Cats and fairies straight from your fairytales. And the most famous Scottish legend of all, The Loch Ness Monster.
