Just beware. know these things exist.

I'm not sure how to keep it from causing such harm again.

I hope so too.

This one threatened my family, so you're right. We also seemed to provoke it with our promise of candy instead of what it really wanted.

This one was evil.

Here in the states we don't have that same folklore and history of myths...I now know to respect the stories of yore.

Thanks for your concern. We are ok. I never knew about Leprechauns and how they aren't just the mischievous little beings, but can be pure evil.

We were the only ones, as far as I know. But, to be honest this is the only place I've shared what happened to us, I didn't want to be thought of as a nutter. It's hard to ask others "Did you have a Leprechaun visit you?", I suppose I could have gone fishing with a more vague "Anything weird happen...?"

Thanks so much for asking. We explained their terrible experience that night as a "robber" was in the house. Also, young ones are so resilient, they can move past trauma quicker than us. but thanks.

No joke, tear it apart and throw it away. You don't want to invite these things in.

trust me we don't either, one was terrifying enough, the idea of brothers and sisters is too much to think about.
