Semi-solid fairy ‘entities’ showed themselves and most people could see them on the pictures verified as genuine by Dr *** of the ASSAP.’ ‘Only [seen fairies] on photos – some traditionally elfin some gnomes plus diaphanous but none winged.’ ‘‘Fair field’ on old maps.’ ‘I was seeking fairies.’ ‘Hallucinations with a reality.’ ‘Hallucinations, but neurology doesn’t really know what they are!’
