‘My fiance Y and I were in our bedroom just relaxing for the night, I was sitting on the end of our bed and Y was next to me. The whole week we had heard weird noises outside our house at night as did Y’s mother who lives upstairs. They were weird animal noises it would seem though we went outside and found nothing. Anyway I was playing around on my phone when I heard a knock on the window as if a small bird or a bat flew into it. I approached the window and I saw something strange. Y saw it momentarily before it just vanished. It appeared to me like a small person no more than anywhere from two to five inches in length on it looked very shriveled and mummy like. I often think about it and bring it up to Y and he to this day just changes the subject.’ ‘It either flew into my window or tapped it.’ ‘Almost like a small dark, kind of mummified person, almost of evil nature.’ ‘It was a small humanoid with wings, the wings were dragon-fly like.’ ‘[Fairies are] supernatural beings of nature or evil.’ ‘I’m just puzzled and want to know more!’
