British folklore encompasses the traditional beliefs, myths, and stories that have been passed down through generations in the United Kingdom. It includes a rich tapestry of tales about fairies, ghosts, and mythical creatures like dragons and ogres. These stories often reflect the values, fears, and experiences of the people in different regions. Many elements of British folklore are tied to specific locations, such as the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table in Camelot or the Will-o'-the-Wisp in marshy areas. Folklore also includes customs, festivals, and rituals that celebrate seasonal changes and local traditions, contributing to the cultural identity of the British people.
