Boggart, An Illustration for a book to be published in 2008 that is an artist guide by artists.


Boggarts are said to be Brownies that have turned evil by being mistreated by their resident families. The Boggart is a malevolent, clumbsy household spirit also called Buggane, Bogan, Bogle or Boggle. They are believed to cause milk to sour, things to disappear and dogs to go lame. It betrays itself by the unusual number of small accidents and strange noises during the night. There is no way to appease them and often no alternative but to quickly and stealthly move to another home. The Boggart will attatch itself to a family and follow it even if they try to flee.
