Actual encounter story starts around 22 minutes into the video. Very interesting, thank you for sharing!

On mid summer a few years back, my husband and I were walking home late at night from a fae honoring gahering at my sisters where we shared food and such. We saw a similar green man/tree spirit near a tree as we turned onto our street, and it was amazing. He was friendly and interested and it was an honor.

As promised: In 1994 I traveled from Dublin to Galway. At about the halfway mark we stopped for a little walk in the woods. I was the driver so I picked the spot. My friend and I were separately walking for a bit in a moderately thick woods. There was a broken down looking castle in the far distance. I was standing by a tree when I saw a quick movement out of the corner of my eye. When I looked directly, I saw nothing. It took a moment to register but I knew I had to say something to bring whoever it was out of hiding. It was broad daylight by the way. So I yelled out “you might as well show yourself because I already know you’re a leprechaun”. I thought it so stereotypical. Here I was in Ireland and within a couple of days I was seeing exactly what is depicted in fairytales. But I knew what I’d seen. It was a male who was small in stature, wearing all green and quick as a whip. As soon as I said the word “leprechaun”, he moved away from the side of a tree that he had blended himself into. I thanked him for showing himself and told him due to his bravery I would never forget that leprechauns exist. It is to this day the only Leprechaun I’ve ever seen. My friend was not close enough to see him. I don’t know whether I was believed but the feeling was so exhilarating in me that it didn’t matter. I didn’t mention it to anyone in Ireland or ask around while there, I went on to experiencing a connection with my deceased ancestors and a baby seal I saved by putting it back into the ocean, as well as a host of other magical and mystical connections and experiences. By far not my first or last experience of a non human being who can be experienced in 3D but each has it’s own special place in my heart. These experiences have always happened unexpectedly and bring great joy and reverence. I always had the feeling the leprechaun was curious about me and sort of accidentally “uncloaked” but then realized when I spoke that I was a friendly sort and not to be feared. Even so, he did not stick around for more than another second and I didn’t walk after him. Definitely there was the feeling of mutual respect. I’ve told the story to a few but basically reserve it for those who would care to know of it. It’s been almost 30 years, I wonder what has transpired since that one moment in time, there in those woods. These days I think I’d invite him for a cup of tea. I mean why not? For us friendlies, we must start mingling at some point.

I saw a fairy when I was 5 and it was a wonderful experience…Then at 27 I was blessed again with hearing a group swimming in a creek. I did not look, it was dark anyway…but there was laughter and splashing…We were camping on Bodmin Moor in Cornwall. I must say that I’ve never felt any thing other than a mutual curiosity and always a blessing….

I've never visably seen a fairy... But years ago we were sitting on Dartmoor I noticed the strangest thing and twenty years or so later I've never forgotten it. A tiny little rush basket swinging on the end of a blade of grass... So small and delicate no human hand could ever have made it!

First time I saw a Faerie, I was staying at my daughter's house and she often saw them. She let me have her bed to sleep in that night and the next morning as the sun light was flooding into the room, I was a sleep but I was laying on my back in bed and could see everything going on in the room. I saw something out of the corner of my left eye coming from the door connected to the hallway. It was a Faerie flying across the room and was hovering over the window next to the bed. What I picked up on, was the Faerie was looking for my daughter. She had a look on her face like what are you doing here. It was a wonderful first time experience of seeing the Fae. Since then, back in March of 2013, after we moved into our home, I have had several sightings and experiences with the Fae. I usually see them in Light form. I love the Faeries!

Love the way you introduce the podcast, say what you’re going to do, are respectful and speak at a slower rate than usual media and are clear and deliberate. I have not had a faery experience but get “altered states” in certain places, especially in the woods when no one is around. I’m 60 now and have been having these “altered states” in woods from being a child. I always feel safe and thank the trees for their guidance and protection. For me, trees are powerful beings.

I dont know how or why I found this channel, but I'm glad I did

Funny how I had an encounter unexpectedly when I was on holiday with people who did believe in fairies. It seemed quite normal to them. When I returned to my usual life with non-believers I buried it in denial, that 'it mustn't have really happened'. Now, finding this podcast and community, the memory flew back, with another! and I knew immediately it was real. Being around others who are open minded is essential to seeing life as it is, and is why this podcast is so important! Thank you 💕💕💕🌟🧚‍♀️💚💕💕💕

I think you give a real air of balance, open mindedness and credibility to this discussion. I'm from a very scientific / sceptical background but as the years roll on I increasingly find that limited view of the world to be unfulfilling.

I have never seen a fairy but my mother told me she had seen one. It must have been in the 1920s, in Colombo, Sri Lanka. My mother was sitting on her aunt’s doorstep leading to the garden and she saw this little person beside her. The fairy looked startled and hurried away.

About 20 years ago I went with my husband and baby granddaughter to an astronomy event at a local college field. I carried my granddaughter to an old vegetable garden because I heard tingling bells. There was an old wire fence and as I lifted the baby up to see better, the delightful music stopped. I had heard once that fairies appear to young children. It felt like the spot there was magical. I am a witch and my granddaughter is one too.

I'm happy that your husband validated your own experience with his.

From European heritage, but being raised in South Africa in the semi desert wilderness on an isolated farm along the Great Gariep River, bordering Namibia, my playmates were the indigenous San (Bushmen) people. From a very young age I knew that Nature is sentient. The San are amazing storytellers and I grew up listening to the elders telling their age old stories around the fire in the deep darkness of the desert. The Namaqualand/Bushmanland desert is ancient. Its not a sandy desert - instead the ground is harder and rocky containing quartz and mica a.o. minerals. It's mountainous terrain, with the massive river flowing through over the untouched landscape. In Spring the desert comes alive with wildflowers in the most luminous colours. Summers are exceptionally hot there and I preferred to sleep outside on the veranda (stoep in Afrikaans) of the old farmhouse. To this day there is no electricity in that area where I lived. On full moon nights when the light strikes the quartz and mica bits in the ground, it creates a haze over the veld and even the trees are aglow. The answer is yes I saw the little people with their gossamer wings moving around in the trees glittering in the haze of moonlight. I watched them from my bed in the late hours of the night. Whether they are visions/projections from the deep subconscious or real, I cannot say, but I saw them walking along the branches of the trees and fluttering about for all the years of my childhood on moonlit nights. I cannot thank my parents enough for exposing me to the wonders of nature as a child and I thank my San friends for giving me the gift of knowledge that Nature is alive. I want to pass this precious knowledge on to others and aim to start doing retreats in this region next year. Merging with Nature at a deep level forever changes who we are. To me everything in Nature is sentient and alive. When people begin to discover this, they say its like waking up from a dead sleep into a vibrant reality. Nature holds it's secrets close and reveals it only to those who genuinely open their hearts to receive those gifts. We are not from Nature, we are Nature. We belong to Nature who birthed us. When we make that connection - thats when when everything changes.

It was as though he had loved you, watched over you, guarded and protected you for your whole life, but you had never known he was there, and never known what he looked like, and now that you met your husband, it was like he was letting you go and saying goodbye to you, and showing you who he had been the whole time.

Not sure if this counts as a fairy encounter or not. I like going into the glen's of Antrim around glenshane glenariff the nine glen's. I love the forest's and river's particularly in summer. I just go strolling all day, fish. Last year whilst strolling through the glen's I heard a little River running close by mile's from anywhere. I pushed my way through the brush and found a clearing with a small waterfall dropping about 6 ' into a pool about same depth. There was a little clear area flat granite were I could sit. It was one of the most tranquil places I've ever been. It was extremely warm,I sat down feeling very dreamy a bit drowsy very happy. I was watching the dragon flies dart here and there above the pool. I sat watching the trout in pool beneath. I don't know why I sat for hours feeling very happy I felt grateful to be there just enjoyng it. When it came time to leave towards evening I thanked the place and left an apple don't know why it just felt right. Next weekend I felt compelled to return I'd felt so happy. Where I'd left the apple it was gone and a small white fully rounded quartz stone was there in it's place. I took it some animal had taken the apple but the stone couldn't have got there by itself I don't see how. Again I sat all day feeling very calm and happy. When it came time to leave again I took the stone home with me and left a sandwich again it just felt the right thing to do for the joy of the day. I returned a week later sandwich gone again probably taken by an animal but another white quartz stone where I'd left it. Took that stone home as well. Slept like a log that night. I had a friend I told what I experienced there in that place and about the Peebles, he asked to come along next time I didn't want to bring him I didn't want to share the pleasure of it but he talked me into bringing him against my better judgement. When we arrived there was another white stone on the ledge where I'd left some peanuts on the last visit. My friend didn't believe me .He was very loud constantly making noise mocking. I knew I shouldn't have brought him. He seemed to break the atmosphere of that place. Suddenly he got hit in the face with a small stone about the size of a pepper grain not big I didn't even see it hit him just his reaction to it as he jumped back. He asked me did I do it I said no I'm sitting beside you you got hit from the front. He became unsettled and was hit again with another in the face . At that he began to almost panick and wanted to leave so did I but not out of fear but just the feeling I shouldn't have brought him at all. He disturbed the place. We left. I returned the following week an felt compelled to appolgise for his behaviour for disturbing the peace. I left another apple returned a week later another white stone in it's place. I never seen a fairy and I still go there regularly, my friend never mentioned our trip there ever again it genuinely rattled him. I don't know what happened maybe something lives there but it likes peace and quiet, dragon flies and fish in the pool and it doesn't like man made noise ,I can't really describe my experiences in that place except to say I love it. I keep leaving little items from my lunch and I keep getting those white stones. That's about all I can say for sure, I've never seen a fairy but that place has some sort of presence and we seem to like each others company.

I have online friends here in the USA, that see fairies regularly and catch them filmed, usually on their security cameras. These sightings and beliefs may more widespread than even you realize.

I live in the Hudson Valley of New York. I have always left milk out for the faeries on Midsummer's Eve and now my children do the same with their children. Thank you for this channel.

We are multi dimensional beings able to transcend time and space. We are able to communicate with other entities and realms. Times and places combine to produce portals. If you know intuitively then you have the inate quality to produce a meeting with 'the other side'. I haven't had a faerie encounter but have met various cats in Cornwall and different ghosts and spirits. I had a Sasquatch encounter in the New Forest. I used to live in Dunmere Woods nr Bodmin and I since worked out thats so called Celtic Rainforest which is about 1 percent of the worlds surface always contains blocks of stone in the river beds from a previous unknown civilisation. The world we inhabit is a mysterious and ancient place and The Lord of the Rings is only a glance in the right direction. Peace to all.

When we talk about Fae or any other kind of multidimensional entities (especially when viewed in a synchronistic context), not only are we talking about things beyond our "ordinary" everyday kind of perception, but also playing at the idea that the Universe, itself, is possibly intelligent (especially when these kind of encounters happen in a synchronistic and seemingly symbolic way). This, perhaps, more than anything is what really gets the rational mind spinning in circles, because to accept the fact that the Universe is not only intelligent, but is intelligence, itself, puts our man-made world (and the faculties of logic which we have largely used to create such a world) in a much different hierarchical order than what we have been accustomed to seeing. It does not suppose that logic is the sole proprietor of the world and its many mysteries, but that logic, itself is but an effect of the great Mystery that it aspires to articulate, certainly suited for piecing together various things, and taking those things apart, but no more able to encompass the entire truth than a wave can encompass the ocean from which it comes.

They know who to appear to. You ARE special! Everyone is!!!

Thank you for sharing so candidly. There are so many things we don’t understand. After many years of research into healing traditions in Ethiopia, where people are more receptive and knowledgeable about the spirit world, I’m certain that it’s possible to have real experiences of things the western world has considered myth or superstition. The bitter repression of the burning times when so many women who knew the fairy lore died, our heritage lends itself to fear and ridicule. 💛Well done, sister, for voicing what has so long been silenced.

I had an interesting encounter. I never saw anything with my eyes, but she was absolutely there, my dog backs me up on that, and our encounter was 100% telepathic and after I drew her. Many others in my area have seen her.❤

I once saw something I can’t explain while leading a bunch of campers through a part of the Appalachian trail. While in front of the kids I stepped into a clearing where it seemed like somethings ran away. The small bushes and leaves were rustled. I took it to be forest animals and backed the kids up. I always wondered though.

💚 🍄 💙 🧙🏻‍♂️❤️🌈 Lovely video! And You look as beautiful and magical as a fairy princess!

Thank you for your clear intention for why you’re sharing this podcast. It is really inspiring! So much of the supernatural seems to be sensationalized these days as entertainment, and your careful consideration and respect for the other realms is so refreshing. Interestingly, as I was reflecting on what you were sharing in the beginning of this episode, I remembered that what opened my eyes to there being a world beyond the material was someone sharing their story with me. She was a very normal girl, a barista at a coffee shop that I haunted lol. When she shared her story with me about some “little people” in her apartment and their shenanigans, it was like it began to crack the egg of my limited world view. This led to a whole slew of personal experiences that are too many to recount (over 20 plus years now) and that I only share when I feel moved to, generally in one on one conversations. So when you spoke of the sacredness of personal experiences, I could really relate with that! My experiences began when I was very young however. I was maybe 4 years old and I would play near a little mound near my home in the woods. It was my favorite place to play. I couldn’t always find the path to get there, sometimes it was just thick bushes. But when the path was open it was easy to find. It wasn’t until I was in my 20s that I realized that maybe that little hill could be a fairy hill. I’d always had a thought to visit it if I ever visited that land again (my family still owns the property), but I don’t know that the hill even exists . I also went inside of the little hill once. There I was greeted by little people who were my height and taken on a tour by riding around in a little mining cart! The little guide who had greeted me spoke telepathically. It wasn’t until I was an adult that I’d ever heard of the hollow hills. Even though I had that experience as a little child, the world and its beliefs deadened my sensitivity and belief in the other realms and it wasn’t until I was 19 that the girl’s story helped me wake back up. Much love and support for your podcast! I hope that it can help others to begin to awaken to the world around them ❤

Wonderful to hear your own experience, Jo! Such an interesting encounter! For some reason i think the ancient little man was happy to see yet another couple fallng in love! I have to tell you how much i enjoyed your narration accompanied by such beautiful birdsong, and all of your images are very beautiful!!! Thank you for sharing your experience, and I share your sense of connection to the environmental landscapes 🍃🌿🌳🍃

You saying seeing another being is something you treasure, finally made sense of how I feel about the green man I saw. Although at the time he frightened me, I realise now I feel honoured he showed himself to me and my dog, Oscar that evening ❤

I saw one over 40 years ago on the Downs in Bristol

My heart is increasingly filling with love and light energy as I hear the words you speak, your energy is like crystalline water, thank you for being ❤

Thank you for sharing your interesting story. I think they are shapeshifters. The curious looking gnome as you describe him reminds me of the look a red eyed being was giving me in the early 1990's in the house as though trying to hypnotize me. I like your beautiful landscape. It’s perfect for a fairytale setting. So relaxing to watch and hear the birds chirping too, while listing to your story.

The fairy i saw was ugly and grey and uncoordinated as it bashed about in a tree i never saw it again and i thought maybe it was a deformed bird it had a pair of legs and arms i knew i seen something strange i am old now and have never forget this odd creature

Oh I actually caught a sprite on camera with flash. I filmed a winged Tinkerbell-type ❤

Thanks for your work and story. Fascinating. I love the British outdoors and have an open mind about the supernatural in nature. I am scientifically educated and have no particular sensitivity. The only puzzling experience I had was hearing otherworldly sounds, resembling music, on a moor in Skye. It seemed to come from the ground. Now, years later, I started meditation and a spiritual quest. Best wishes to you and your viewers. ❤

I think most people living in the states, believe that fairies are of the Tinkerbell variety. Thank you for your stories and especially your KNOWLEDGE. I do feel something is happening...and I'm here for it.

I live in Australia and when I was younger I was at a sleepover .my friend owned a new fairy door that was attached to her wall I saw a fairy about 15 cm fly towards the door then she disappeared when she got to the door. I still vividly remember in detail what she looked like she had a purple dress ,wings and short hair .

I just found your channel and love it! I have believed in fairies since I was a little girl. When I would stay with my Nana she would talk about fairies and how she believes. She told me she had seen a fairy when she was young. She told me to keep alert since they can pop up when least expected. She also told me that fairies would come in the form (or costume) of chickadees, chipmunks and field mice. ❤

build up with back story starts at 15:46, actual encounter starts at 21:10

The far away tree was my favourite book as a child! I don’t know how many times I read it, but I read it over and over again. Love x

Beautiful story, thank you for sharing.

I would LOVE to see an All GREEN Fairy!!!!! My favorite colour!!!!

This is so fascinating. I grew up with many unexplained things that happened to me that I often wonder why I was meant to see those things. Funny enough most of the encounters I was not alone so there were witnesses. I wonder why the man chose to present himself to this lady.

I just discovered this channel. Its wonderful. Hello and best wishes to all from Chicago!

I recently told some people about an encounter I'd had with the wee folk. They have completely dropped me! Obviously they assume I an just a mad old man. So great to see the comments here.

I very clearly saw what I call a "lightbody" back around 1992. It was about an inch tall and many colored and perched and spun on a windowsill. I had plenty of times to 'rub my eyes' to make sure I was not imagining it....About a year ago (2022) I saw two fairy or elf like characters. I describe them as elf-like because they were not lit up as I think fairies are. I had been sitting next to a large stone waterfall that I'd been building for many months. I had put some quartz crystals in nooks in the stones. I believe the elves or fairies very much liked this project. As I sat there at dusk, daydreaming about how the waterfall would look once the water was flowing, I saw something settle on the ground near my feet. My first thought was, "That is something supernatural!" It was the size and shape of a leaf. Then I saw another to my right! I was quite excited and happy and thanked them for letting me have a glimpse of them. Then we had a joyful conversation that made me giddy with happiness. This feeling was, for me, my biggest proof that I had really experienced something.

What an amazing experience!

Thoroughly enjoyed this Jo, thank you. And it does seem like a special time to live in, all kinds of experiences seem to be happening ❤

I strongly believe that many of us have some form of ancestral connection or past life connection with fairy folk. Who knows, maybe many of us in our soul journeys decide to move into human existence after previously being part of those creatures' collective. And because of that, we occasionally experience a window area or trigger event where some form of Elf/ fairy etc which we were linked with - becomes visible

Great podcast. Really enjoying the conversations. I’d love to hear you talk with Eddie Lenihan. He’s wrote several books on fairy stories in ancient ireland. I think you would have a fascinating chat.

I have come to believe that the Nature Spirits, like fairies, help the trees and plants and landscape to incorporate light and to grow and thrive.

Wonderful that this type of experience can now be openly discussed, at least in some circles. I've had my share of discombobulating experiences that shifted my materialistic, scientistic world view, and all for the better. For those interested, I suggest looking into the Findhorn garden story, the books about ROC and his experiences of nature folk, and books by Dorothy Maclean. They give some further insight into these realms and the richness of existence, beyond our superficial perception.

I wish l would see a fairy - or any supernatural phenomenon. Even a scary one would be great to me... because then l would "know" !

I'm at 18:23, but, this pattern is mimicking the mental storyline that I have always had in my head. When I was a kid, I used to write fantasy stories, but I never really finished them. I wrote one for school, which I did finish, and I never knew how to write a story, or how to explain what was happening, but it was always something like, 'I was looking into the bushes, under the trees, and it looked like it would be somehow mysterious or fascinating to go in there, so I crawled through the bushes, and fell into a hole, where I met wizards and monsters and dragons and other creatures.' It was always a kind of accident that I would fall into the adventure somehow, literally a hole in the ground.

I saw a pair of fairies when I was a little kid. Pointy faces and ears, one was blue skin, the other was green

my mother's family were from Ireland

Ah you were born on Star Wars day! Taurean, like me. My birthday is the 11th - but I didn't see this until after the events you were talking about. May is a beautiful, magical month. I loved the visuals you did for this podcast. Yes, very useful for me. Although, I have long since given up feeling embarrassed or being fearful of ridicule. In fact, just yesterday, I met two guys I know - both older than me, so in their 70s. They were laughing and saying they felt like gnomes so I told them about my gnome experience. One chap grinned from ear to ear - and the other looked horrified - a cross between shocked and scared. I wondered if he will ever speak to me again - it was so funny. I have also had ghost experiences, a near death experience and two ufo sightings. As have my sisters. I talk to trees, plants and rivers. And always to animals. But I think we have less to lose as we get older. You are very courageous, I think. Thank you for all you do.

I just found this today. Great content. Greetings from "Mayberry," North Carolina.

How cool your sighting was. Thank you for sharing it with us.. I’m a new sub!

I love your story… high time we all remember and connect to our friends from the "other world"… I think it’s a gift that you were allowed to see this natural spirit. So lovely - thank you for sharing 🧚

Just found your channel yesterday....been watching all day, lol! Great podcast!

Loved your account of seeing the green fairy man.I have no personal stories but just know they exist. I’ve never been told Fairy stories,either but I just know❤❤❤

super story you have a wonderful voice I could listen to you all night

Jo should do a asmr channel, her voice is very calming

Thank you so much for sharing Jo. I'm still waiting and wishing for such an encounter. I was born and live in Australia with English, Irish, Scottish biological heritage. It seems to me these countries seem to be the center of the fae world....I have never heard of a fairy sighting in Australia. Are there certain areas that they inhabit or do you think the people of the UK, Ireland especially, are just more perceptive/ open to an encounter? Any theories?

I was talking a few years ago to a Sculptor who had a show in a gallery in Penzance, Cornwall. He was a plain speaking Yorkshire man who seemed really down-to-earth and not the usual personality for an artist (in my experience at the time). We got talking about the supernatural and he told me a story about how he was driving late one evening between Marazion and Penzance. It was very dark and no other traffic about and no street lamps along the road. Suddenly his car headlamp beam shone on a small figure walking along the side of the road coming towards him. As the car came along side him he could see the figure had a pointed felt like hat on, a long beard and a dark green coat and leather boots. He also had a stick over his shoulder with some sort of bundle attached to the end. The strangest thing was that this man was no more than three feet tall. The Sculptor did not stop the car but continued on his way a little shaken by the encounter.

My nephew saw the fairies. Altogether, I've met seven or eight people in Ireland, most of them young, who claim to have had a fairy (leprechaun) encounter.

How awesome that this exists. I have not seen Fairies but in a local wood during Autumn there are a few fairy rings hidden away which I sit down beside for a while.

Love your show!! I never miss it

Lovely! Thank you so much for sharing. 🙏

Very cool story! I've found/seen some pretty strange things I can't really talk much about so I'm never one to doubt, especially fairies. I showed a dear friend the book Meeting the Other Crowd by Eddie Lenihan once, and he became instantly concerned. The few people I've brought up supernatural beings to over the years rise to near anger in the defence of my sanity LOL.

My mother, who recently passed away, told me as a little girl, that when she had given birth to me she caught sight of a tiny man with a jaunty green hat and coat looking in from the window! She said it wasn't frightening, he just seemed to be curious. That was it. This was in England back in 1961. I had kinda forgotten about this until watching the video. She had a very friendly Irish nurse and I know she had some Irish blood in her background too. I have no idea if any of this has any bearing. But she was very impressed by the friendly Irish nurse. It might also be worth noting that my Mum had never shown any interest in anything fairy or even alternative. Her only in might have been she was a Pisces!

Thank you for sharing your fascinating story. I find it extremely compelling and interesting. I have had numerous sightings of strange beings. Including different beings with wings. I'm in Australia & im 60 & most of these experiences (some witnessed by others) occurred about 30 years ago. It would take time to do justice to my stories, so I hope to share them with you in more detail. Having read several of people's accounts & alllowing for the fact that some people tell untruths, I'm convinced that many are truthful. What possible benefits could someone hope to derive from fabrication after all☺️ Anyhow, I'm very excited to have subscribed and look forward to exploring this topic 🧚‍♂️

Love hearing your story. I was drawn to fairies since I was a child. It was a yearning of wanting them to be real where I can't explain. I started to have my awakening in 2020 and when I left my life and partner of 13 years I manifested a trip to Maui for a few months. The morning I woke up in the island my host talked about fairies in the garden and showed me pictures of little blue winged people caught on camera and I would hear sighting stories. It was the start of a new reality for me and since then I would get so many fairy synchronicities. Now I feel more drawn to work with native plants and teach others their benefits and the journey continues...thank you for doing what you do! Thank you for allowing me to believe in magic!

I have never had the experience of seeing a fairy,but have always believed that we are not alone,and there are being's,extraterrestrial and interdimenional,and wonder if indeed fairies are in fact aliens.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Thank you for your channel. bless you, family ,the Fae

Just found this channel. Awesome!! Have no clue why it popped up but I’ve found my peeps!

I have just voted for your podcast. I followed your link and it's really easy to do, so I hope everyone will do the same 😊 Best of luck 🍀

I recognise a few of the places in your beautiful photos around North Somerset/Gloucestershire! ❤

Thankyou...this is such a fascinating subject. 🙏

Absolutely loved the South African story you truly love your environment

I have had many, many spooky encounters most of which were impossible situations. I’m from Somerset in the UK. It’s nice to see somewhere that people can discuss these things openly.

Great stuff, thanks Jo x

Sighting 1 took place in the 1990s (Sorry I don't have the exact date) it involved my son's ex Sister and Brother-in-Law. They were parked late one evening near High Beach in Epping Forrest. At the time they were still courting, and after about half an hour they heard noises outside the car, quite perplexed and nervous they looked around and staring through the back window were two tiny figures! Needless to say, they immediately left. I heard this story first hand and they both seemed totally genuine. Sighting 2 involves my Brother and Sister, both now in their sixties swear on the Bible that whilst playing in the bedroom they both saw a figure that resembled an old TV character called Andy Pandy, which came out of the closet and played with them for about half an hour, they were about 4 and 5 respectively at the time. They still maintain their story to this day. I will also add that I never use or wear green unless I asked permission. I'm also adding a link to a picture that was taken at about 3am at a camping ground near Edenbridge in Kent, play full-screen to see the creature, I have no idea what it is, but I'm certain it's not human. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g6lgbJmevNqsooE.html

Thank you for sharing this post with us, beautifully and magically presented. I shall try and remain curious and look forward to learning more. I found your previous podcast with Dr Simon Young fascinating.

Thank you.

So interesting , thank you for sharing your experience 😊

This is absolutely amazing and so much fun, i love the way you tell your story. I've recently been reconnecting with myself and remembered my interest in fairies as a child - thats when your podcast 'randomly' popped up on my youtube feed. Thank you so much for sharing!

I love your channel!! And I just voted for you - Good luck!!🤞

Hi, I've just started watching your videos...great content! Did you know Fern Brittan saw some faery folk? She mentions this in her Cornwall series....I wonder if she'd be up for an interview?? She has a wonderful energy.

Thanks for having the courage to share your encounter. I've never had a fae encounter, but I've had many spiritual/paranormal experiences. I've even written a book about them. I know how vulnerable it makes one feel to come out of the "closet" about these things. Over time, I have come to the conclusion that we are supposed to share them, even if there are some people who will never accept these things.

Wow, beautiful photos and footage here! Thanks for sharing your sighting ( and these magical images) with us. I'm quite envious. I've had lots of weird "otherworldly" type experiences, but nothing yet ( apart from maybe _one_ a few months back..) that could be regarded as a "proper" faery sighting. I do live in hope, though. I've been drawn to the faery world since I was a child, and when I discovered Brian Froud's work as a teenager, I instantly _knew- "THAT's what they look like!". P.s. The fact that your faery was all green reminded me of Kim Simonsson's "Moss people" sculptures. I mean, they look quite different to the description you gave us, but they are all green, and are photographed in nature ( and they look amazing!), so you may enjoy them? I'm not sure YT will allow me to post a link, but there's a lovely article with pics on the 'My Modern Met' website. Pardon my too-long comment!

Nice podcast. Good photography.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this in such a genuine and clear way - I greatly respect what you’re doing here and can feel it’s pure energy. A truly fascinating and powerful experience - this spoke to me on a deep level. I have been meaning to get in touch with you for a while and emailed you on Halloween last year, though I’m not sure if you received or saw the message. In any case, it would be great to connect with you on these topics at some point!✨

Cool

New subscriber. Absolutely fascinated. Just want to say as you described your encounter I thought "Brian Froud" and then you said it had a "Brian Froud appearance" so you must have described it perfectly.

Story starts at about 14 minutes into the program Thank you for sharing your experience

Which area of the country do you live? Not asking for precise location. Looks a bit like Cornwall.

❤ Just voted, Jo!

I actually had my fist sexual encounter with what I believe was a Sidhe back in the early 1980s in a place called the "Breaks Interstate Park" in Virginia, when I was about 10 or 11. I know....that's really young. But it pointed out to me that the Sidhe don't necessarily share our moral guidelines. I kind of feel it had something to do with hitting puberty? But I'm just guessing. That being said...I actually thought it was a physical experience until at one point I could see myself laying in the bed still. I remember feeling like she had somehow pulled me out of my body without me noticing it. She was wearing a toga and wore some kind of wreath with flowers on her head. I don't remember her saying anything....just laughing and giggling. I'll leave it at that to keep this PG rated.

Unintentional ASMR 👍
