Madrid, Spain 2000s
Male: Age 11-20 never or almost never has supernatural experiences
inside a private house 6 pm-9 pm one to two minutes with several other people, some of whom shared my experience
you were extremely happy
friendly, joyful, aloof
loss of sense of time, profound silence before the experience, a sense that the experience marked a turning point in your life

‘We took a photo with a mobile phone, I and a friend, in this photo, two silhouettes with little coloured lights, that formed two outlines one of a fairy and one of a gnome. I no longer have the photo, but I remember this incident very well.’ ‘This was a park in which children play, and sometimes these children say they have imaginary friends and invent games.’
