'Wild Samhain Ride'

Kelpies are an evil shape-shifting water horse faery
and are part of Celtic Folklore... notable Scotland and are part of the Unseelie Court*
but they have conterparts all over the world**
In Ireland they are known as the Phooka
and are strongly connected with Halloween or Samhain

The creature could take many forms and had an insatiable appetite for humans; its most common guise was that of a beautiful tame horse standing by the riverside - a tempting ride for a weary traveller. Anybody foolish enough to mount the horse - became stuck to it.. unable to dismount or even be thrown, no matter how wild the ride! Eventually the faery charges headlong into the deepest part of the water, submerging rending and consuming its rider it his watery grave.

*In Scotland faeries were divided into the Seelie ( old Saxon for "blessed") Court and Unseelie Court depending on whether they are friendly and helpful or malicious and evil. Kind faeries travel, spreading good and help where ever they go while the Unseelie hurt, frighten and sometimes even destroy mortals. Though it is not safe to offend those of the Seelie Court, the punishment from members of the Unseelie is much, much worse, and you dont even have to try to offend the Unseelie.

**These creatures, inhabit the lakes, rivers and seas of the world and are used to keep their children away from the water's edge or warn travelers of trusting in the unknown no matter how friendly and benificial it may appear.
