Leprechaun is an American horror comedy film series consisting of eight films. Beginning with Leprechaun (1993), the series centers on a malevolent and murderous leprechaun who resorts to any means necessary to protect and reclaim his gold. None of the films in the series are presented in chronological order. Warwick Davis plays the title role in every film except for the 2014 film Leprechaun: Origins, and the 2018 film Leprechaun Returns, in which the character is respectively portrayed by Dylan Postl and Linden Porco. On St. Patrick's Day, all Leprechaun films are played on Syfy.
