§758

‘I was about eight years old, and I was sitting in the back seat of the car while looking out the window. My father was a doctor and whenever there was an automobile accident, he always stopped to render aid. This was in the nineteen forties. There were only two-lane highways, so collisions were fairly common. The car might have been stopped for that reason, at the time, or we were driving very slowly, but I looked out my window on the left side, and on the shoulder of the highway in the opposite lane, was a tiny horse-drawn wagon with a tiny driver. The horse was about eight inches from nose to tail as I looked down on it, and the driver was in proportion. The wagon was kind of a dingy red, farm-type wagon. At the time I did not think the sighting was miraculous or even odd, and I didn’t say anything to my parents, but all I remember is that I wanted to take the tiny beings home to play with. Although I remember it vividly, I gave it little thought for years, but in later life I started reading about elementals, and fairy beings, and realized I’d had an actual sighting. I have had no sightings since.’ ‘They seemed unaware of me or anything but what they were doing, which was a fairy being man driving a horse-drawn wagon, the wagon and horse about the size that could fit in an apple carton’. If seen what did the fairy/fairies look like? I saw a tiny (eight inch) horse-drawn wagon being driven by a tiny man. The wagon, horse and man all looked like real living beings, in perfect proportion. The wagon was a dingy red, the horse brown but I don’t remember anything specific about the driver.’ ‘I heard no sounds.’ ‘It was on a highway in Louisiana, and no one talked about fairies. I don’t remember even having heard about fairies at the time. I was about eight years old.’ Why do you think your experience was a fairy experience, as opposed to a ghost or an alien or an angel or some other type of anomalous experience? ‘I was a child, wide awake at the time, and I knew nothing about ghosts or aliens and little about angels.’ ‘I now believe that [fairies] exist and are basically soul-like beings that vibrate at a range of frequencies that humans can’t see unless certain circumstances allow it.’ ‘I never read fiction or non-fiction stories about fairy beings until many years later, when I was around thirty years old, and I started reading about ‘elementals’ and other fairy beings in a book entitled The Secret Teachings of all Ages by Manly P. Hall. Since then, I have researched more. The memory of my fairy sighting is still vivid, after over seventy years.
