PerriaPerria or Pehria is a fairy-like mountain figure in Albanian mythology and folklore.EtymologyMost certainly derived from the Turkish word peri, which is a fairy in Turkish mythology.DescriptionPerria is generally a protective figure; however, she can also do harm. In Albanian popular belief, she is depicted as female mountain-spirits clad in white. Their duty is to punish anyone who is wasteful with bread by disfiguring the person and making him a "crooked hunchback".
