‘I was laid only end [sic] with the window open. It was quite warm with little breeze. I noticed a shiny speck come in the window. At first I didn’t think too much of it until I followed its movement travelling all across my room until, eventually, it landed on the tip of my finger. It was a tiny human being with wings. I got an itch in my nose almost immediately and sneezed quite strongly and she flew away. I never saw her after that.’ ‘Very small and slim, can’t remember clothing but no shoes. Hair in two plaits.’ ‘I have experienced ghosts and possible Angel encounters before, this was a very visual experience.’ ‘[Fairies are] earth angels.’ ‘This experience always stayed with me. I didn’t really tell anyone at the time as I don’t know how they would react.’
