Bow of the Banshee is a rare +1 shortbow that can Frighten targets on hit and grants bonuses to weapon damage and attack rolls against Frightened creatures.
The impression of an elven face screams silently from the finely curved bow - the image becomes even more disturbing when the bowstring snaps forward on release, emitting a blood-curdling wail.
