Most people are baffled at any idea that fairies could exist...and telling people you've had a fairy encounter is a major taboo. The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast hears from people who’ve had experiences and want to share them. Whether you’re already a believer, or full of intrigue, come open-minded and open-hearted…simply listen, and make your own mind up. But take heed, these are not winged Tinkerbells. These are real fairies. Please note: this podcast is not suitable for children as it may contain some unsettling, frightening or creepy material from time to time.

  • Cottingley Fairies Unveiled: Frances' Side of the Story with Dr Simon Young

    Cottingley Fairies Unveiled: Frances' Side of the Story with Dr Simon Young
    Mar 27 2026
    The case of The Cottingley Fairies has captured people's imaginations for over a century. But the photos that Elsie Wright and Frances Griffiths created of the "Beck Fairies" near their home on the outskirts of Bradford in 1917 are now more famous for being the subject of a hoax. However, there is much more to the story and it is really one of tragedy rather than trickery. I chat to Dr Simon Young about the lesser known aspects of the case, predominantly from the perspective of the younger child, Frances who was the only one who had claimed to see the fairies. We discuss how her personal experience became twisted into a painful untruth which burdened Frances for her entire life. The work of Dr Simon Young is highly respected in the fairy community and much loved for his resurrection of The Fairy Investigation Society and subsequent Fairy Census, which is ongoing. Simon will be joining TMFSP members for an exclusive Patreon Zoom on Thursday April 30th 🤩 In 2024 Simon released two books: Essays on The Cottingley Fairies featuring offerings from Neil Rushton, Kate Ray, Meri Dickson and Joshua Cutchin among others together with a Source Book of primary material. Simon's podcast Boggart and Banshee which he hosts with Chris Woodyard, is a favourite of our community here on Discord.

  • Ep 125: Sacred Life and Sacred Death

    Ep 125: Sacred Life and Sacred Death
    Mar 11 2026
    For some time now, I had been meaning to share the profound experiences that took place in relation to my father’s death. It feels tender and vulnerable to offer these stories but I own the decision to do that. I hope that hearing about these experiences might help someone else who is moving through a death or grief process…or they might simply provide another way to view these moments which inevitably take place at some time or another in all our lives. It’s been quiet on the Pod lately as I’m in the last few weeks of writing my book, ‘Modern Fairy Sightings: Personal Encounters in Extraordinary Times.’ I'll be back to my normal fortnightly release from April onwards. We will return to fairy experiences then. These topics around life and death feel relevant - particularly in these times. To me, they suggest that the separation between our realm and Other realms may not be as fixed as we hold it to be. I’d love to hear your thoughts and feelings on all of this. ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY ⭐️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like-minded folks, access to the Discord chat channels, quiet meditation gatherings and meeting other members, join us at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ S U P P O R T If you’d prefer to support the Modern Fairy Sightings with a one off donation, you can ‘buy me a coffee’ and I’d be very grateful 🙂 https://buymeacoffee.com/modfairysight Or send a one-off donation to PayPal at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://paypal.me/modernfairysightings/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ M E R C H !

    Ep 124: "Trust the water and let go" Faun's experiences pt 2
    Feb 1 2026
    Part two of my chat with Faun. 🌊 💫 Faun's relationship with water as a healing archetype.🧝🏻‍♀️ a meeting with a Völva (Icelandic Seeress)🧌 encountering a Guardian of the Land♊️ seeing a double of themselves The full length video version includes on Patreon includes: 🏡 powerful experiences incl. a levitation at Faun's grandmother's home. I found our conversation an enriching experience. Afterwards I was reflecting how many of the conversations we hear these days are 'Yang' - everything is uber-active and fast moving. This chat feels 'Yin' - spacious in places. I wonder if this is something that we may get more used to, as we move into the Age of Aquarius. ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY ⭐️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership⁠⁠⁠⁠ If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like-minded folks, access to the Discord chat channels, quiet meditation gatherings and meeting other members, join us at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership⁠⁠⁠⁠ S U P P O R T If you’d prefer to support the Modern Fairy Sightings with a one off donation, you can ‘buy me a coffee’ and I’d be very grateful 🙂 https://buymeacoffee.com/modfairysight Or send a one-off donation to PayPal at ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://paypal.me/modernfairysightings/⁠⁠⁠⁠ M E R C H !
