Lore
The Bean Nighe, or Washer at the Ford, is a ghostly omen in Highland Scottish folklore, washing bloodstained clothes of the soon-to-die. A banshee-like figure, she appears by streams and can grant wishes if questioned correctly, serving as a harbinger of death and a bridge between worlds in Gaelic tradition.
