I love researching them for my novels.
Here is a passage from my epic Beyond the Border (Books One and Two are published on Kindle)
Once
there was a dwarf who held regular congress with Them Who Be. At Sundown, between Beltane and Samhain,
he sought the company of the Gitto who
lives in the fields. The Gitto, whose head
is that of a horse and whose body is that of a goat, has human speech and
laughter but is malevolent and will blight your crops just before harvest. At the time of the full moon , he courted the
Gwragedd Annwn, the golden-haired water fairy who loves to dance but who cannot
count beyond five. And in the dead of night he feasted with the Gwyllion, who
would die in sunlight and who cares for the wild goats of the mountains.
