The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast
Jo Hickey-Hall
Most people are baffled at any idea that fairies could exist...and telling people you've had a fairy encounter is a major taboo. The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast hears from people who’ve had experiences and want to share them. Whether you’re already a believer, or full of intrigue, come open-minded and open-hearted…simply listen, and make your own mind up. But take heed, these are not winged Tinkerbells. These are real fairies. Please note: this podcast is not suitable for children as it may contain some unsettling, frightening or creepy material from time to time.

We’re a community for creators and fans vibrating around common curiosities, shared interests and persistent passions.https://www.scarlettofthefae.com/the-modern-fairy-sightings-podcastspectrevisionradio.comlinktr.ee/spectrevisionsocial

Ep 117: Brother Richard on Halloween Traditions And 'The Visitors'
Brother Richard returns for a discussion on Halloween Traditions including those related to Samhain, All Saints Day, All Souls Day, 'Trick or Treating' customs in Ireland and how we can invite our departed loved ones to join us at this time.
We also further discuss 'Dissertations upon the apparitions of angels, dæmons, and ghosts, and concerning the vampires of Hungary, Bohemia, Moravia, and Silesia' by Father Dom Augustin Calmet (first published in 1746)
https://www.gutenberg.org/files/29412/29412-h/29412-h.htm
We get into the regularity of levitation experiences, safe approaches to dealing with Otherworldly beings and much more...and we end with a very moving seasonal poem by Brother Richard.
Brother Richard is a Capuchin Franciscan priest-friar living and working in Ireland. His poem ‘Lockdown’ went viral on social media in the early months of the coronavirus pandemic in 2020.
His books Still Points: A Guide to Living the Mindful, Meditative Way and Calming the Storms: Meditation as a Path to Inner Peace and Happiness are aids to daily life in this busy modern world. Brother Richard teaches Christian meditation and mindfulness with the Sanctuary Spirituality Centre.

Ep 114: Elf Encounter & Psychopomp Crow (Cape Cod, Massachusetts)
It was an honour to speak with Amanda about her family's experiences.
We hear the extraordinary sighting of what her (non-believer) husband described as an 'elf' in and around their home in Cape Cod.Amanda shares a very moving account of a crow which appeared in the family's lives and brought solace, around a tragic event.
Lastly, we hear Amanda's father's account of seeing two little beings climb into his childhood bedroom in Cape Cod.These experiences felt personal and meaningful. Such encounters compel us to question the relationship between the material realm and the Otherworlds.
Huge thanks to Amanda for sharing these stories with us.
The episode we referred to with the psychopomp crow is Ep 57: Processional Gnomes, Psychopomps and Chanting Monks of Staffordshire

Ep: 113 The FA! and Other Bedside Visitors
I speak with Rick, whose father was an intelligence agent in the CIA from the 1950s onwards.
One night in 1954 in Austria, when Rick was a young child left alone briefly in his parents' bed, something unseen began pulling at his body from the bottom of the bed. Eventually, a red being popped up at the side of his bed and shouted ‘FA!’ in his face. It was the culmination of many other unsettling experiences. The family later returned to North America, living in various locations.Later, as a young man while training in Buddhist meditation techniques his encounters with Otherworldly beings began to reignite. The pattern seems to suggest that these beings have been reaching out to him for his entire life. He is now ready to engage with them, if only they would return.This was a fascinating conversation. Big thanks to Rick for sharing his experiences with us 🙏🏻

Ep 112: 'Rabbit Trap' Dir. Bryn Chainey
I spoke to Bryn Chainey, Director of 'Rabbit Trap', Bryn's first feature film. The story centres around a couple in (no later than) 1976 who have moved into the Welsh countryside on a creative retreat.
Daphne (Rosy McEwen) an avant garde vocalist and her husband Darcy (Dev Patel) an experimental sound recordist, use the new found space to explore their art and their relationship. In doing so, they stumble across unusual sounds, enter the depths of nature and experience something Otherworldly...at which point a stranger enters their lives.It was great to chat with Bryn and learn what had inspired him. Turns out that, like many of us, he's been familiar with these worlds since childhood. And, (as these magical kinds of projects tend to do) against all odds, the film found it's way into the insightful hands of SpectreVision - yet another nudge that there's definitely something driving this opening of hearts and minds towards the Otherworld, into the mainstream.
It's a brilliant film, sensitive to these themes, incredible cinematography due to the fact that it's all shot on 35mm, giving a soothing sense of spaciousness to the natural world backdrop that runs throughout the story. The soundscape is masterful and an experience all by itself.
I loved it!! Go and see it if you can.
The film releases Friday 12th September in cinemas all across the US. We are hoping it will come to Europe too.
In the meantime, check out Bryn's previous short film Moritz and the Woodwose (2013) - I think the portrayal of the being is really inspired.
Thanks for watching 💚

Ep 111: "Black Spindly Creatures by my Bed" (& States of Bliss)
Greg, an academic and lifelong experiencer contacted me with what he felt was a gnome encounter.We discuss early memories including his crib levitating and spindly black creatures who would appear at the side of his childhood bed. The description of the creatures reminded me of Episode 82: "The Puppets are Coming for Me"
Greg shares how a later Kundalini experience brought a sense of expansion of consciousness and led to an encounter with what he believes was a Holy Guardian Angel.🌟 In the exclusive full-length extended version on Patreon I share my own bliss experiences and we discuss how important it is to talk to our children about the normality of these phenomena. We get into our understandings of what Higher Self means for each of us. Greg describes an experience which involved a visitation from his Grandfather and perceived what seemed to be a 'life thread'. We talk about how helpful it is to stay connected with our loved ones who have departed this realm.🌟
Huge thanks to Greg! His contact is iamholisticspirit@gmail.com

Ep 109: Meeting a Forest Gatekeeper (with Tiyi Schippers) North Michigan
Tiyi lives in North Michigan where she is the Mayor of her town! She has Irish, Creole and Nordic ancestry and can trace her lineage back to Haiti in 1702. Her family's story is fascinating.
Tiyi starts off by telling us about her Great-Grandmother who met a leprechaun in Cork, Ireland and shows us the resulting enchanted shillelagh that has been passed down her family. We hear also about her grandfather's Hoodoo practices and the wisdom he passed down to her.
Being a sensitive soul and clearly bearing the generations of practice of sensitive and honourable spiritual contact, Tiyi recalls hearing ghosts and voices as a child. On occasion she would encounter what she describes as 'The Slinky Lady' and one of her stories details flying out-of-body experience where she felt herself as part of the landscape.
Tiyi works with forest spirits and shares a life-changing experience in a woodland which took place at a very difficult time in her life. During this wondrous encounter, she received a blessing from the forest. On another occasion she perceived 'The Gate Keeper' in the forest, from which she produced the painting that is shared in the episode.
We hear about the 'talking tree' that her grandchildren reported, and we end with a series of mind bogging photos that could potentially indicate a Sasquatch encounter!
It was a great honour to speak with Tiyi and I'm very grateful for all she shared about her life and experiences, so rich with meaning. Here is the beautiful blessing that she provided:
"Spirit of this sacred place,
Grant your blessing, grant your grace,
Keep me safe in night and day,
Hold me ever in your sway,
Spirit of Water earth and Green
Grant me sight for things unseen"
Contact Tiyi via her website and be sure to subscribe to her YouTube channel.
