The Kelpie

If you are travelling in Scotland and there you are on the coast or at a loch, be careful, because if a beautiful horse offers to carry you over, run. Because if you don't, it will pull you into the depths and eat you there. What am I talking about ? a Kelpie.

Kelpies are water spirits in the form of a horse with a fish tail and are already known in Celtic mythology. They are powerful horses that serve the sea god and often appear as shape-shifters to hide their true nature. However, they prefer to appear as beautiful women who lure poor sailors and fishermen to their doom.

There are many such water horses who are very similar to the kelpies in their actions. They are called nuggle in Orkney, shoopiltee/ njogel/ tangi in Shetland, Ceffyl dŵr in Wales, nökken in Norway or each uisge in Ireland. All water horses have the characteristic of attracting people, in this case sailors or fishermen, but especially children, to drown them in the water and eat them. The water horse encourages children to climb on its back, and once they have climbed on, they cannot get off because a sticky film on the beast's back prevents them from doing so. The kelpie drags the children to the bottom of the sea or lake and eats them there, except for the liver, which remains floating on the surface.

There seems to be no way to escape a kelpie, unless you manage to throw a veil or a bridle over it, in which case it must serve you.

But where does this myth come from, which is limited to the coastal regions and large lakes? As already mentioned, this myth dates back to the Celts, who liked to have pile dwellings on the shore or directly in the water in these regions. The clothing at that time consisted of thick wool to protect against the cold, but there was a danger that if someone fell into the water, the wool would fill up and pull the person down before they could save himself. Especially children and all those who worked near or with the water were affected by this and so the kelpie seems to have been a warning and thus a call for caution, which has survived to this day in numerous myths and legends.

THE WATER GHOST On 20 November 2020 evening my house water tank was draining automatically no one knew why. So my grandfather went on the terrace and checked that is there any leakage, surprisingly there was no leakage but still water was draining then my father said it’s not a big deal fill the tank with water again and tomorrow morning will see that the water still drains or not then my family went to sleep. Next day my little cousin and her parents were heading back to her house. The moment she left we all waved them and the first thing that I did was to go and sleep because it was 5:30am in the morning and. My father and grandfather went directly to the terrace and checked the water tank. They both we terrified the tank was empty again and now all the superstition bubble was popping in all my family members mind.

Now my grandparents have came from their village few weeks ago and a boy had committed suicide in a well. and my grandmother thought that the boys spirit has came here and he was drinking the water and I was listening all these stupid things from my bedroom and my mind was thinking the same stuff and then I got up and brushed my teeth and I headed directly towards the water tank and by the time reached there the problem was fixed and the culprit was…..

my sweet little sister. Fun fact: actually no one ever asked her about this but she was the culprit because a tap was open and the place where the tap was she was the only one who use to play there.

Thank you for reading till here I really appreciate it!!!
