‘I was lying in bed with the light off watching TV. I had shelves above my bed. I saw movement out the corner of my eye. I see vaguely this time pixie-like shape moving around on my shelf. I just saw her for a moment before she realized she was caught. When she knew I knew I blinked, and she was gone.’ ‘Tiny maybe as long as your middle finger. Vague human shape with wings.’ Why a fairy? ‘The size and shape. I have had ghost experiences before. They tend to seek attention. I just caught her moving by accident.’ Fairies are ‘fascinating and dangerous all in one’.
