Scottish folklore encompasses the folklore of the Scottish people from their earliest records until today. Folklorists, both academic and amateur, have published a variety of works focused specifically on the area over the years.[1] Some creatures of Scottish folklore are Loch Ness Monster, brownies, kelpies, selkies, the wulver, the bean-nighe and the blue men of the Minch.
