piskies
Piskies are small, mythical creatures from Cornish folklore, often depicted as playful and mischievous. They are typically described as having a human-like appearance, with pointed ears and a fondness for dancing and singing. Piskies are believed to inhabit rural areas, particularly near moors and woodlands, where they can be found frolicking in the moonlight.
In Cornwall, piskies are often associated with good fortune and are thought to help lost travelers find their way. However, they can also lead people astray if they feel disrespected. These enchanting beings are a beloved part of local culture and storytelling, capturing the imagination of many.
