‘Full Moonlight, Samhain Eve, little gobliny type men running in and out of bushes, giggling, tumbling and scurrying around garden. House by side of burren, yew lined at side, orchard at end.’ ‘Like little men! About two-feet tall, very dark skinned, swarthy with big noses. Ragged clothes.’ ‘Streams of music which was hypnotic but made me feel sick!’ ‘We had a solid type fog all day and a farmer had said, ‘Pooka come down in mist’’. ‘I just knew [it was a fairy]. My Paternal Grandmother was Irish and when I went to live in Ireland in 2007, I felt I had gone home.’ ‘[Fairies are] I think ancestral voices.’ ‘I have always felt ‘something’ and have seen things all my life. I learnt, when going to school to keep quiet. I can’t explain my experience. I just am thankful for it.’
