Geocache Description:


A demonic Celtic creature or minor god found in Manx myths, which come from the Isle of Man in the Irish Sea. The creature is similar to other monsters in folk stories from Ireland, Wales, and Scotland. He is a creature of the night, similar to a vampire in that daylight can destroy his power. A Buggane always has a particular home such as an old ruin, forest or waterfall, where it will remain unless disturbed somehow. One of the places known to house a Buggane is the ruined church of St. Trinians, built on the site of an ancient pagan burial ground in the village of Marown on the Isle of Man. The most famous story involving a Buggane relates that one repeatedly tore the roof off St. Trinian’s church. Another story tells of a woman’s narrow escape after a Buggane is sent by the fairies to punish her for baking after sunset.
