Her dancing partners should have recognized their danger, for red-haired girls with milky skin - and anyone resembling them, even non-redheads wearing red petticoats - are omens of ill fortune, folklorist Lady Wilde informs us, while archaeologist Thomas Westropp records the belief that a mere glance from a red-haired girl can kill a horse or a man." - From "The Red-Haired Girl From the Bog: The Landscape of Celtic Myth and Spirit" by Patricia Monaghan
