[00:17.31]The Banshee [00:26.51]爱尔兰女妖 [00:36.91]My mom's side of the family is Irish. [00:40.48]So my grandma would tell me stories [00:42.90]about my great-grandpa who was from Ireland. [00:48.52]Just small stories, [00:50.00]such as the fact that he had a musical ear [00:52.86]and could play almost every instrument. [00:56.33](I wish it passed on through the family.) [00:59.08]I've always been into paranormal things, [01:02.37]so I would always ask her [01:04.08]if he had encountered anything [01:06.02]out of the ordinary throughout his life. [01:09.37]Her memory was vague, [01:11.49]so she asked her sister Mary, [01:14.09]and Mary reminded her of his banshee incidents [01:18.55]back in County Cork Ireland. [01:23.26]My grandma explained to me [01:25.12]what Mary had remembered [01:26.78]her father telling her as a kid. [01:30.49]A banshee, before I go on, is an Irish myth. [01:36.01]A ghost that protects an Irish family [01:39.23]throughout eternity without showing itself, [01:43.94]unless someone in the family dies. [01:47.24]Since the banshee can predict the future, [01:50.21]it knows who is going to die beforehand. [01:54.58]So it mourns under the moonlight, [01:57.07]with cries more like the wind [01:58.93]and shows itself to someone in the family [02:02.24](preferably the one who isn't going to die). [02:07.09]It gets so sad because it is a part of the family. [02:13.45]So anyway, when my great grandpa was a kid [02:16.99]he would ride home on a horse, [02:19.16]back in Ireland, [02:20.36]through the fields from school dances. [02:24.43]So once in a while [02:26.34]his horse would stop dead in its tracks, [02:29.77]because you know animals [02:31.21]can sense things people can't. [02:34.72]My great grandpa would tell it to trudge on, [02:37.97]but it wouldn't budge. [02:45.39]讲解 [04:55.07]My mom's side of the family is Irish.
