The day before our interview, Joshua's new film The Lady of The Lake was released on Prime, so I took the opportunity to ask him about it. (frustratingly, it's not available yet in the UK). • The Lady of the Lake (2024) Trailer -...

We get into all things watery, sea monsters, thresholds and Otherworldly inversions!
Shownotes Joshua's book Ecology of Souls is highly recommended (both volumes) (2022):

Ep 95: Brother Richard: ' Peace Between the Kingdoms'
Listeners, I very much needed this chat with Capuchin Franciscan Priest-Friar, Brother Richard. I hope you feel you get a lot from it too.
We discuss Brother Richard's personal encounters with Otherworldly beings, first as a child and later as a Priest-Friar. He also talks about the Franciscan Order's understandings of Non-Human beings, they steps they take when protection is required or in rare cases exorcism, and he shares his own experiences of aiding in these circumstances.
We also discuss: - Rites of Passage (particularly in relation to young people) - Offerings to Otherworldly beings and so much more.
I found Brother Richard's suggestion of prayer when in a wild place such a gift:
"Bless every being present, seen and unseen, even the beings I pass by, around or through, without knowing."
Contacts: Brother Richard on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brorichard/ ⭐️ If you would like to make a donation to Brother Richard's work, please support his Order's daycare centre for the Homeless ⭐️: http://www.capuchindaycentre.ie/ Books and Podcasts discussed:

Ep 86: Dark Man Appears on Glastonbury Tor: Jessica Mitchell
You can send a text message but I can't seem to reply! Better to send me an email to scarlettofthefae@gmail.com
Big thanks to Jessica for sharing her story 🌿
I first heard about Jessica's encounter with a tall dark man on Glastonbury Tor on Darragh Mason's Spirit Box Podcast. Since then, she feels her sense of this being has developed further. This discussion is a chance to chat about what their meeting now means to her.
We hear how he has entered her life in other ways and how he is a source of guidance and support to her.
I was amazed to hear an updated detail about The Dark Man's request for "a cup of tea" and "a cigarette" that he made to Jessica and her friend, as they stood, terrified on the hill of the Tor at 4.30am.
Jessica takes tarot appointments and her contact details are: jessietwobears1210@gmail.com and @jessie_twobears

Ep 85: 'They Want to Talk to Us'- South Wales Encounter
Our guest was only eleven years old when he wandered away from his holiday caravan site and found himself in the woods, communicating with two beings. They guided him through 'rooms' which seemed to have "glass walls" into the forest and showed him some kind of representation of how they were aiding us here on Earth. He experienced lost time.
Every single encounter shared in the Project offers us greater understanding of this Universe. As you will see, this is no exception.

Having researched a series of recently reported encounters here at The Modern Fairy Sightings Project with the figure known as Gwyn ap Nudd, King of the Fairies, Lord of Annwn (the Welsh Otherworld) I chat to Danu Forest, author of, Gwyn ap Nudd: Wild God of Faerie, Guardian of Annwfn about her understanding of him, how she came to be a dedicated priestess of Gwyn and what he offers to us, in encountering him.
We also discuss the secrets held within the hollow hills of Glastonbury Tor!

Ep 83: Jason Atomic and The Blue Being: A Childhood Encounter
Artist, Jason is a well known face in London’s underground 'freak' subculture scene. His art background originated in creating comics which he now feels may link originally to an experience he had as an 11 year old child, when he came face to face with a small blue non-human being in his bedroom in East Grinstead, West Sussex.
Having researched UFO lore and demonology throughout his life, Jason decided to contact me with his encounter after hearing paranormal researcher, Paul Sinclair on this show, describing his experience of seeing a small creature with ‘elephant-like skin’.
We discuss later experiences, including powerful ritual experiences, his witnessing of anomalous light forms in clouds in Japan, synchronicities around manifesting and we mention Voodoo spirits, Papa Legba and Dhamballa.
🌟 In our bonus episode this time we’ll be looking at the Studham Common encounter in Bedfordshire, in 1967, when five or six children saw a small 3ft blue being during their lunchtime. Plus we'll look at other blue-being encounters 💙
Thanks to Jason for sharing his experience with us.

Ep 82: "The Puppets Are Coming For Me..." Greater Manchester childhood experience
This episode is one of those kind that seem to lead us through a new threshold of understanding.
We hear from a guest who, as a child living in rural Greater Manchester, encountered small black creatures emanating from a chimney breast in her bedroom. (see drawing attached of long nosed being and the hairy 'leader' which were drawn by our guest).
In this Patreon-Exclusive full length episode, you also hear of a later encounter with The Hat Man and a small figure which appeared at the window around the time I responded to her initial email. (see drawing of dark figure on the show notes, link below).
⚡️ It's unsettling in places so do take care if you're listening at bedtime!
Huge thanks to our amazing guest. As always, let me know your thoughts.

Ep 80: Dr Neil Rushton's Experience on Glastonbury Tor
Jo Hickey-Hall chats with Dr Neil Rushton about his inexplicable audio experience on Glastonbury Tor in October 2023. He very candidly describes the difficult time he underwent this last winter, following the encounter.
This episode offers our thoughts on what can happen when we journey down to the Underworld. We all go there throughout our lives, some of us more than others. These dark places are familiar to all of us.
I'm very grateful to Neil for sharing so openly. We don't talk enough about the difficult parts of life.

Ep 79: 'Night Time Gnome' Came Looking for Me! (New Zealand)
I speak to a man in Auckland New Zealand, who grew up in what was originally native bush land. As a child, he had what sounds like a gnome encounter inside his home. His response to the frightening experience had a profound effect on how he decided to live his life from that point forward.
Our guest's inspiring story suggests what may be possible if we can look beyond our fears and lean into communication with landscape and the non-human beings who reside there.
It feels like an important story for us to hear at this time.

I speak with a woman who encountered a figure on Glastonbury Tor, who has appeared in a number of episodes thus far...The Dark Rider.
In this and previous episode Ep 76: Otherworldly People: Encounter on the Thameshe appears and then disappears. Always in black leather clothing, each time wearing a black helmet with the visor down so that you cannot see his face. He also turned up in another episode, Green Gnome Visitation Changed My Life (Oklahoma) when a man who was a child at the time describes the terror he felt at seeing him appear, when no one else in the room could see him.

Jo is joined by musician Sam McLoughlin who, as a young man aged 17 or 18 experienced an enchantment in a local woodland in Lancashire.
He and a friend heard what sounded like children’s voices coming from the river. They experienced orbs and a sense of strange shift in reality, commonly known as the Oz Factor, a term coined by Jenny Randles.
⭐️ In the bonus episode on Patreon Sam shares how he managed to navigate repeated traumatic out-of-body-experiences and sleep paralysis episodes as a young person.

Ep 94: Otherworldly Hiking Encounter (Sedona, Arizona)
I chat to Tim about a strange interaction which took place during a hike and tapped deeply into his psyche.
It marked both a shift in Tim's life direction and a return to his underlying sense of 'true' self and an openness in life which had slipped away during adulthood. It continues to hold meaning in his current relationships.
We discuss how our home environment as a child shapes how we interact with the Otherworld and how, as an adult we can lose our sense of 'being'.
I hope you enjoy this discussion.
The discussion he watched between Patrick Harpur and 'a philosopher' was the interview between Patrick and Bernardo Kastrup. https://youtu.be/r4hEOJQpbiw?si=NTraD-Iog8xMCEzx

Ep 76: Otherworldly People: Encounter on the Thames
Jo Hickey-Hall speaks to Frank Scannella about his encounter next to the river in Walton-on-Thames in 1982. His story 'Meeting Nicola', was published in the, "It Happened To Me..." section of The Fortean Times (Issue 350, 2017). This episode was also released as a video on YouTube.
The sense of uncanniness about this meeting has always stayed with Frank. There are many liminal aspects to consider: the proximity to water, crossing a bridge, the time of his life between studies. As well as this, various folklore motifs abound: black dog, dark man, strange stillness in the environment (Oz Factor) and the way that the beings appeared and disappeared in a mysterious manner.
Most of all, there was a sense that one cannot fully describe. But you will know, if you've ever had a brush with the Otherworld.
⭐️ In the bonus episode on Patreon I share related folklore about river-related merfolk, we hear some comparable encounters submitted to Simon Young’s Fairy Census and we end with a particularly unsettling story that was posted on Reddit. It is a strikingly similar experience of a young man who came into contact with a strange man along the river in York, England, featuring lost time and other very strange factors. Both men view their experiences as near misses with beings from the Otherworld and feel lucky that they lived to tell the tale.
Frank is the author of Sicilian Shadows - a compelling memoir of his struggle for survival in the heartland of the Mafia as a young boy.

Ep 73: Green Gnome Visitation Changed My Life (Oklahoma)
A most poignant story about a little boy from Oklahoma who came face to face with a gnome in his bedroom.
As a child he had felt very alone and afraid for much of his childhood but it was an Otherworldly being that reached out and showed him love. Now as an adult, he recalls how this experience, “changed (his) life and the way (he) saw the world”.
Trigger Warning: Our guest describes having survived an abusive childhood with aspects of neglect. They also describe how, as an adult, they were the first one to find their parent who had sadly, passed away.
⭐️ BONUS EPISODE ⭐️ In this Patron-exclusive full-length version, we hear of another experience which you may find shocking. Our guest's elder brother was attacked by some kind of Otherworldly creature which is well-known in Native American Seminole folklore.

Our guest describes a sighting in 2016 in California, which occurred after a plant medicine church meeting. Whilst sitting in his car waiting for a friend, he watched two gnomes, no more than three ft tall in height, appear from a bush one after the other. They 'waddle' across the street and disappear into another bush.
(Apologies for the poor sound quality! I have done the best I can with the file - it was much worse to begin with).

In the exclusive bonus episode on Patreon we hear of a multiple witness sighting of a white glowing human-sized figure after taking part in an indigenous ritual. It was observed on private land and the owner of the land appeared to be aware of the spirits that he shared this space with. The encounter lasted several minutes and the being emitted a 'headlight' type of light which shone into his eyes.

We hear of one woman's experiences with shadow people. The first appears as Anubis the Egyptian Protector god, while the other is a well-known archetype: The Hat Man - an entity who has appeared to many people and is traditionally seen as malevolent...though the story shared in this episode provides another perspective.
TRIGGER WARNING There is a trigger warning for those who may find it hard to listen to my guest describe her unhappy childhood and the content itself is rather unnerving. Skip this one if you are sensitive to creepy content.
⭐️ BONUS EPISODE ⭐️
In the exclusive bonus episode on Patreon, our guest describes a more recent mind-blowing experience which was hugely transformative. Some kind of force poured through her body and took her directly to experience what I refer to as 'Source'. Since that time, her life has taken a new direction. She finds herself in a long-lasting happy relationship pursuing what she feels she was born to do - helping others.

Ep 69: Beckoned by Forest & Lake: Upper Peninsula of Michigan
Our guest describes his extreme childhood experience in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, involving musical enchantment, levitation, loss of time and senses and deep connection to raw nature.
We hear how he was enchanted into the woods and ended up in a potentially life-threatening situation. Despite the intensity of the experience, he hold the view that it opened him up to a new way of seeing the world. A truly remarkable story and a much treasured share.
A second experience was described during our conversation. It is just as amazing as the first and will be released nearer winter solstice.
TRIGGER WARNING This story contains descriptions of a child finding themselves alone in the forest and getting into potential danger in water. Although thankfully they were not harmed, it may be a trigger point for those who are sensitive to these subjects.
⭐️ BONUS EPISODE ⭐️
In the bonus episode I read from Yeats' The Celtic Twilight and a story collected by 19th century folklorist, Thomas Crofton Croker. To hear that bonus, hop over to Patreon where you can join the community and support the show.

Ep 68: 'A Gnome Ran Across My Bed!': Maintaining Childhood Wonder: Real Fairy Experiences
🧚🏻♀️ I chat to a woman originally from the south east of England, about her real experiences with fairy beings.
✨They include childhood levitation, a bedroom based fairy visitation, and a multiple-witness sighting of a tiny humanoid disappearing into a hedge. She describes seeing orbs inside her bedroom as a child as well as lights in trees and we hear the strange case of a fairy-related text message which the sender had not written!
🌳🐾 The exclusive Patreon bonus share is the story of a 'Stick Man' or 'Tree Being' which she and her husband became used to seeing around their home in New York State.
💚 I hold a special place in my heart for these creatures. Having seen one myself a number of years ago. They appear to be sensitive, peaceful beings who are connected with the land in which they appear and are perhaps even guardians of that land. We hear snippets of previous guests encounters with Stick Men (some of them previous exclusive bonuses).
To hear that bonus, hop over to Patreon where you can join the community and support the show.
If you have encountered one of these tree or stick like beings I would love to hear from you.

Here we talk about Patrick's family’s relationship with the Otherworld and whether an openness to their existence aids the potential for personal encounters. We ponder the eccentricity of our modern western culture in denying the existence of daimons and Patrick offers ideas about which gods may be ruling us at this time.
I hope you enjoy this discussion. Let me know on Instagram and Twitter.
⭐️ In the bonus episode on Patreon⭐️ Patrick reveals his fascinating, childhood treasure-finding experience. Locating treasure is very much connected with beings from the fairy realm. It's a lovely share.

Ep 93: Fairies of Hedges and Homes (Sheffield, England)
This is the story of a woman from Sheffield in the North of England, who experienced a fairy flying out from a hedge near her home, in an area which had already felt particularly special to her. She later encountered an imp while staying in a holiday cottage with her family.
With a history of mediumship that seems to have been passed down her ancestral lineage through her great grandmothers (listen to the full extended version on Patreon for a discussion on her mediumship experiences) , Corinne shares how her abilities showed up initially and how she was ultimately able to use visualisation to release a fairy being who appeared to be unwittingly 'stuck' in this material plane.
This episode was recorded in July 2024.
⭐️ BONUS ⭐️ In the extended full length P A T R E O N version we also hear about our guest's encounter with the Angel Metatron and how her experiences with the Otherworld continue to inspire her artwork.

A woman from San Diego, California shares a whole host of extraordinary encounters with people who took the appearance of human beings but felt decisively, not-of-this-world.
From a strangely terrifying family in a Walmart car park to a disappearing cowboy, you may even find that these stories strike a chord with some odd encounters of your own.
The most intriguing of all, 'The Hitchhiker' may lead you to question what is really 'real' anymore. Is the Universe communing with our subconscious through metaphors and archetypes?
Some of the experiences described may be unsettling for some listeners who are sensitive to creepy content. These stories are not suitable for children.

Ep 63: Shape-Shifting Tree Folk and a Love of Nature 🌳
I meet Paul from Alberta, Canada who tells me about his experience with a shape-shifting being. The encounter took place during a visit to a forest environment which he had grown to love.
We discuss the importance of nature in our lives and the instinctive responses which we should always pay attention to.
This is a lovely, heartwarming chat .
Paul will be joining 'The Curious Crew' who support the show this summer for an online Q and A plus...
🌳 narrated modern encounters from Dr Simon Young's Fairy Census 2014 - 2017 and Marjorie T. Johnson's Seeing Fairies, that bear resemblance to the encounter in this episode.

This episode, full of childhood encounters, holds a particularly enchanting quality. As a sick child lies in bed, he is visited by pixies. On another occasion, at the end of the Second World War, a terrifying goblin appears at the end of his bed. A member of the same family later experiences a bedtime parade of magical wonders. Her resulting dream journeys to a 'Burgundy Kingdom' makes her wish dearly that she could return.
Some of those experiences are beautiful and wondrous while others are quite unsettling. A further reminder that this podcast is not suitable for children or for those who are sensitive to creepy content.
⭐️On the bonus episode we hear more about the history of the house including a particularly unnerving event which took place soon after the passing of its owner. In that same bonus we will hear about our guest’s experience at the famous 800 year old oak tree, Old Knobbly in Essex.⭐️

His Circle Stories on Facebook is an excellent resource and there's a shortened version on Instagram. https://www.facebook.com/CircleStoriesDavidHalpin https://www.instagram.com/circle__stories/
We discuss some of the stories on Duchas.ie Schools Collection (see link below) which relate to children. Some of these involve children being taken to fairyland NB. these are not changeling stories which are a separate type of fairy lore. We also talk about unconsecrated burial grounds called 'cillíns'.
The Schools Collection Duchas.ie is collection of folklore compiled by children in the 1930s: https://www.duchas.ie/en/cbes/volumes
David mentions this graveyard during our discussion: https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/books/kilranelagh-inspiration-for-ancient-saga-and-modern-detective-series-1.4297546
The story about the child taken by the red fairies is here: https://www.duchas.ie/en/cbes/5044715/5033787/5136106
Cillíns https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cill%C3%ADn
⭐️ In the B O N U S episode on the Modern Fairy Sightings Patreon, I share some stories from the Duchas.ie Schools Collection of folklore from 1930s Ireland (releases Monday 17th November 2024)

Following, Terrified by Goblins in my London Flat, in the second part of our interview my guest reveals what was going on in her life at the time of the encounter and describes the sense of trauma that these extraordinary experiences can leave you with.

In 2018, after months of unusual phenomena in her London flat, a woman finally came face to face with the troublesome culprits. During a night time trip to the bathroom she was horrified to see two goblins stacked one atop the other, peering at her from the threshold of the door.
Since that time, she has struggled to come to terms with the reality of what happened. In our western society, people are wholly unaccepting that these experiences take place, least of all that they could ever happen in urban areas.
We discuss the events that finally led to that night, her relationship with the flat which had always unnerved visitors and how the decision to share her story was not taken lightly.
Is it purely location that invokes these visitations? What other factors are involved? We discuss aspects of liminality including thresholds, stages of life and geographical landmarks.
In the bonus episode on Patreon, I narrate several other modern encounters which bear a striking resemblance to our guest's experience. Join us there for just £3 a month and get access to the Discord group and regular events.

Ep 54: Chat with Claire Casely, 'The Fairy Whisperer'
A relaxing chat with Claire Casely, known as The Fairy Whisperer. Claire lives in Magical Dartmoor and is an intuitive artist, researcher, and storyteller, engaging people with faery enchantment through nature, the landscape and creativity. She has a podcast called Faery Whispering and she also writes and makes faery art.
Claire shares the pixie experience that she had alongside her mum and reveals a mini initiation she was called to, as an introduction to a Fae being, in a local walking spot that she visited.
We also discuss how it's sometimes difficult to discuss our fairy interests with loved ones and how we can manage those situations. Plus pre-cognitive dreams, fairy guides and much much more!
Check out the photos of the fairy door in the shownotes on scarlettofthefae.com, along with some examples of Claire’s beautiful artwork.
The bonus for members of Patreon is an exclusive faery guide audio pathworking from Claire's Faery Journey of Heart Awakening which she talks about during our chat.

Another delve into the original interview recordings I made in early 2017 when the Modern Fairy Sightings Project first launched. Mark Norman and I were at the time researching for the Devon chapter in Simon Young’s book Magical Folk.
One particular woman responded to a poster I'd pinned up in Dartmoor, calling for people to contact with their fairy encounters! We spoke about her family history with fairies and her own understandings of the Otherworld.
In the bonus episode on Patreon, we explore 20th century Dartmoor folklore by Theo Brown, which mentions a few stories of sightings in Postbridge, not far from Bovey Tracey, where our guest had lived.

Ep 51: The Brazilian Ent Fairy (multiple witness sighting)
A multiple witness sighting of a 'walking tree trunk' in the grounds of a university in Brazil, in around 1999/2000.
A Brazilian man and his companion simultaneously observed the tree trunk walking along the side of the road. They caught up with it after losing sight and felt certain he had changed into an old man with leathery lined skin "like the tree trunk".

After suffering illness, our guest involved shamanic approaches in his quest to return to full health. During his successful process of recovery he discovered a deep resonance with chanting, which led to an extraordinary experience.
Later, on a trip to Iceland, he encountered a couple who showed up out of the blue and disappeared just as curiously. He has always felt, they were not of this world.
In the Bonus Episode on Patreon, our guest describes a mysterious face which appeared in a fire.

S4 Ep 48: Santa is Real and he landed in Washington State!
A man from Washington State describes hearing Santa's Sleigh land on his roof complete with the sounds of sleigh bells, hooves and a heavy sack and footsteps !
At the time he was 20 years old and at college. He had never had any strong belief in Santa and his family generally took a skeptical view on strange phenomenon. To this day, he hasn't told his family but like many others, he is sure of what he heard.
We all have a 'boggle threshold' - where the idea of extraordinary phenomena is repelled by our brain's filter of improbability, based on our beliefs, experiences and willingness to consider what has previously remained outside our knowledge and level of understanding.
I had heard stories of people seeing and hearing Santa before but this is the first time I've spoke to someone about their experience. It turns out that many, many people have had these experiences, either in childhood or as adults.
This was an enlightening chat for me and it has brought a sense of unexpected magic to this holiday. For that I am very grateful. I hope you enjoy it too.
Merry Yuletide One and All ✨🎅🎄❤️

I chat to Darragh Mason author, researcher and host of Spirit Box Podcast about his new book, Song of the Dark Man.
Our discussion begins with an overview of what, rather than who, 'The Dark Man' is. We then move onto the folklore and finally go over some of the first hand encounters which make up the second half of Darragh's book.
It's genuinely a fantastic read and I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish.
I also found that it brought a deeper understanding to the encounters that we've heard here on the Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast, where our guests have crossed paths with aspects of The Dark Man.
So, if you haven't got your hands on a copy of Song of the Dark Man yet, then tarry not...you need this book in your life 🖤
And be sure to check out Spirit Box Podcast on YouTube where, through his interviews with a fine array of incredible guests, Darragh explores folklore, esoterica and the mysteries of spirit world: https://www.youtube.com/@SpiritBox Audio version on all apps including Spotify and Apple:
Darragh also has a Spirit Box Podcast Patreon group which I am in too. It's a brilliant community of people, sharing and supporting one another. Always something interesting happening. I highly recommend it as a community with a great bunch of folks 💚

My guest's numerous encounters include a multiple witness sighting in some British woods, the story of a haunted fairy painting that you won't forget and a Samhain-timed brush with the Fae on Glastonbury Tor. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's revealed that these experiences run in the family! Sit back, relax and listen to this fascinating collection of stories from a long-time experiencer of the Otherworld.
On the Patreon bonus episode, our guest describes a perilous visit to West Kennet Longbarrow...the scene of many strange encounters.

In this special episode I return to the location of my fairy sighting, on the island of Jersey, to meet with a woman who had a very similar experience to me, at the very same place. We exchange notes during a picnic and I am blown away by what she has to say.
Did she meet the same fairy being? And if so, what does this suggest about the nature of these experiences?
The bonus episode on Patreon sees us leaving an offering at a nearby tree and we discuss anomalous lights seen over Jersey.

Journey to the Otherworld : A 15 minute-long Samhain pathworking
🍂 I love this time of year and you can go deep with these sorts of exercises. Light a candle, get comfortable and open to the experience.
The pathworking will provide a means of accessing personal insights and potentially offers deep spirit connection with the Otherworld.
💫 It is based on my own experiences and also inspired by one of the episodes (you might be able to recognise it!).

S4 Ep 44: Contact with Star Beings and Coping with Personal Awakenings
We discuss the apparent upsurge in encounters and people’s personal awakenings. He describes his observation of an orb-like ship that shot into the sky from a lake near his previous home. He and his wife later experienced entering the ship. After that time he began communicating with what he describes as, 'Star Beings'.
Todd shares some more recent experiences he's had, with what appear to be yoga deities. He also suggests some meditations and exercises for letting go of old thinking patterns
Todd teaches yoga, Tai Chi and Qi Gung in Sweden where he lives with his family. He provided our Patreon group with a 'tea ceremony' workshop last year, which introduced us to a whole new way of connecting with Otherworldly beings.
