The Nixie
- thenixieinthepond
- The Nixie is a figure in the pre-Christian legends of western Europe and the British Isles. She is a water spirit who lives in lakes, rivers and oceans. Her other incarnations are mermaids; melusines and loreleis (from the German); and sirens. She makes men fall in love with her but her stories rarely end happily.
