Summary

The mysticism and fairy folklore of Celtic England, Scotland, the Isle of Man, Brittany, and Wales is explored in this production, which focuses on interviews conducted with everyday citizens about their beliefs, sightings, and encounters in the early 20th century, followed by an anthropological examination of evidence. It is an exploration of the spirit world, of the Sidhe, the "good people", who are claimed to interact mischievously with the populace - sometimes even abducting them and leaving only the victims' clothes behind, transporting them far distances, and killing their livestock.

A thoroughly engaging exposition of 🧚‍♂️ folk

Loved it!

A thoroughly engaging exploration of the deep rooted & certain belief in the existence & powers of fairy 🧚‍♀️ folk across the celtic world & the correlation to similar beliefs in other regions around the world.

Highly recommended to any with an open mind.

INCOMPLETE - DO NOT BUY.

Seriously. HALF the book is missing. The narration simply ends mid paragraph with the credits and the Audible closing statements. This is a scam and you should feel ashamed of yourselves.
