leprechaun

In Irish folklore, a fairy shoemaker with a hidden treasure or ‘crock’ of gold. If caught, the leprechaun must tell the location of the treasure, but he always tricks the captor into looking away for an instant, after which he has disappeared. The leprechaun's part in genuine Irish folkore is a minor one, but his importance has been greatly exaggerated in the literature of recent generations, and he has been promoted as a genial otherworld character in the tourist trade.
