Leprechauns are a mythical figure of Irish folklore who have been adopted as a sign of St. Patrick’s Day. By definition, they are fairies in the form of elderly people. Indeed, in ancient Irish, the words “leprechaun” mean “little body.”
And they say that leprechauns are loners who live far away from people. They are often depicted as craftsmen who make shoes or other objects. They are also said to have pots of ancient gold, which they collected from burials of the past.

The earliest mention of the leprechaun is in medieval sources under the title “The Adventure of Fergus, Son of Lethey“. Here King Fergus is asleep on the beach, and when he wakes up, he is dragged out of the water by three dwarfs. They catch him and give him three wishes in return for their release.
Early leprechaun art often showed little men in red jackets, sometimes wearing pointed hats with no brim. The current depiction arose from stereotypes about the Irish.
