Banshee's are demons from Irish folklore. If you've seen the Disney film "Darbey O'Gill and the Little People", you'll understand it. They say
that a Banshee will scream when someone will die. The banshee will attack the one who doesn't hear the scream, for it will be the one to kill. I
heard a banshee wale. It sounded like a blood-curdling scream mixed with a yelp of a dog. Unfortunately, the sound a banshee makes is the sound of the
fallen one. So, scream makes female, yelp make dog. I come home and my female dog, named Daisy, had her neck mangled and broken. Banshees are devilish
creatures, normally taking the form of a Priestess. Most sightings are confirmed as a green form by a large river, stream, or pond.

I read a load of BS here. The Banshee is not a demon. She is merely the announcer of death. She will not scream at anyone's face or kill anyone, but
will be heard keening in the vicinity of the home of someone who is going to die in one of the five Irish families she is associated with (although by
extension, it is believed she will cry over any Irish person's death). Stop watching horror movies or Tv series exploiting Irish culture and reducing
it to meaningless brainless versions.

Yeah, my bad. I need to learn not to trust Wikipedia so much, it does have a lot of BS on it. But everything else I say is true due to experiences
with banshees. Banshees are spirits, though. They cannot be earthbound nor Hell bound, so it has to come from the Grigori(or Watchers). That would be
the only explanation I could find.
P.S: Banshee is derived from the Irish term Ban Si, which means "Women of the Side".

Well i could have always been wrong about what exactly was screaming to this person; coulda been something else, could be right. Noot too worried
about it. She's said that she hasn't heard it since her uncle got her a blessed cross, and last time i talked to her, she had been going to the
cemetary to pick up knocked over flowers for the dead, whom she see's and says that they appreciate it. (So Cool)
I wish i'd hear from her more often.

Well to see a banshee you have (and this is from irish mythology) you have to be of true gaelic blood and only certen family lines are haunted by the
ban sidhe ( ban shee means woman of the shee ) ban shee are not evil they are in fact mourners who are sent by the sidhe ( shee) to give a cry of
anguish and loss at the death of a person it is an honor to have a ban shhe cry for your death.. but to hear the cry of the ban shee means that death
is iminent but the ban shee is in no way evil
