Lore: There is only one Leanansidhe, & she lives under the Irish Sea off the eastern coast of Ireland. Like all vampires, she is a blood-sucker. But rather than drinking the blood of her victims, she collects it in a huge red cauldron which is said to be the source of her beauty & powers of poetic inspiration.
