I would like to know if there exist any parallel version of the

Banshee (supernatural woman death-messenger also known as the badbh

or badhbh who figures prominently in Irish folk belief)in the Indian

tradition? Etymologically, is banshee/badbh (Irish: an bhean si) in

any way connected with Sanskrit? Thanks,
