Is the Dearg Dú Ireland’s very own vampire legend? In this video, Jon O'Sullivan from the Irish Pagan School explores the terrifying folklore surrounding the Dearg Dú, a revenant said to rise from the grave to seek revenge and drain the life force of her victims.
Originating in County Waterford, this undead woman’s tragic backstory of love, betrayal, and vengeance makes her one of the most horrifying figures in Irish mythology. Learn the lore behind the Dearg Dú, her connections to other supernatural beings like the leannán sí and the Scottish Baobhan Sith, and how modern vampire myths like Dracula may share roots with these ancient Irish stories.
