In this episode of Monstrous Myths, we explore one of the most unsettling legends from ancient Irish folklore: changelings. These eerie stories tell of fairies swapping human children for their own, leaving behind mysterious, often sickly beings known as changelings. Based on tales from Irish Fairy and Folk Tales by W.B. Yeats, we dive into two of the most famous stories—'The Brewery of Egg-Shells' and 'The Fairy Nurse.'
Listen as we uncover how desperate mothers used ancient methods to outwit the fairies and reclaim their stolen children. This episode is part of our short series exploring the darker side of Irish folklore, with a focus on the myths that shaped the fears and beliefs of the past. Subscribe to Monstrous Myths for more deep dives into terrifying tales from history and beyond.
