Leprechauns can be tracked down by?
Leprechauns are extremely difficult to track - but some success maybe encountered by closely observing the dew on the grass. Leprechauns can travel without disturbing the dew but it will take on a sullen shimmer in the moon-light as a result of ones passage. A really careful tracker can follow it - until the sun comes up and burns it all away of course.
You will have far more success in attracting Leprechauns to merry or even slightly robust events. Forest dances, games of pillogaging (bowling), and tussels have been known to attract the little folk.
They are real. The only reason they might not be to you is if you don't believe in them.

Why do the Irish believe in leprechauns?
The Irish do not believe in leprechauns. As a born and bred, true Dublin man, I can honestly say I've never met a person that 'believed' in them. In fact, I've never had a conversation about them. The myth probably goes back to the old stories of gold under the rainbow, and that would be where you'd see a leprechaun. And this might symbolize our inherent positivity, despite our small physiques and red-hair; and those of us who are from the country would have a fiddley-dee accent, whereas the majority of Dubliners have a Colin Farrellesque accent.

What was the story of leprechauns?
The Leprechaun legend is especially popular around Saint Patricks' Day. Standing only about two feet tall, this little old shoemaker with twinkling eyes and rosy cheeks looks friendly, but they're actually quite the tricksters. Leprechauns are given to excess, nothing appeals to a Leprechaun like a binge of whiskey, Guinness, pipe tobacco and snuff, and despite their small stature they can handle surprising quantities of alcohol. Being aloof and unfriendly little fairy souls, Ireland's Leprechauns aren't easy to spot. They spend all their time busily making shoes, and stashing away all the money their craft brings them in a hidden pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Everyone's heard of the legendary pot of gold, and the only way to track one is to follow the sound of a Leprechaun hammering the shoes. They say if you catch one, he'll promise to take you to his pot of gold if you can just keep him in your sights. But these tricky little fellows know just how to get you to look away. Once you do, they've disappeared and your chance of riches is gone!
