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.

Ep 10: Stay or Go? (England, childhood experience)
In this episode we hear from a guest who shares his childhood experience of meeting a fairy. The encounter took place in his bedroom one morning while he was reading alone. He finds it hard to access a clear memory of the entire event but the parts he does remember are of great significance to him. In this case, our guest regrets how the experience was borne out and this has formed the basis of a decision to try and reconnect with the being. We discuss this sense of regret and how the memories began to piece together for him later, to become more meaningful in adulthood.

Ep 9: The Tall Folk and The Little People
Episode 9 of The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast features the sort of experience that we might visualise from 19th century collections of Irish folklore. The encounter took place in Ireland, but was experienced just a few years ago, by a young Australian man as he toured around in his camper van. It’s a pretty epic story and he feels very lucky to have experienced this first hand. A whole host of apparitions popped up and each brought their own vibe to the events which unfolded.

Ep 8: The Good, The Bad and The Tickly
Jo speaks to a British woman who had three very different experiences with fairies. All encounters took place in her bedroom but were miles apart, in terms of her emotional experience in each case. In one incident, our guest summoned the courage to stand up to a nasty goblin-looking character. In another scene, she is set upon by a troop of tickling fairies and in the third encounter, a tree fairy provides much needed solace.

Ep 7: Twilight Zone
Send us a text
In Episode 7 of The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast our guest describes a series of events which took place in an ancient wooded area in the north of the Netherlands. They include child-sized and two dimensional beings who appear and disappear, apparitions at the roadside and what sound like time slip incidents.
In this particular episode, the encounters are particularly unnerving and it is not recommended for anyone who may be upset by creepy content.

Ep 6: Teatime Interrupted
A woman and her sister witnessed something materialising in the doorframe of their parent's home, one ordinary afternoon.
In the aftermath of the incident, the decidedly rational approach they chose to take, to process their experience, is particularly interesting. As with Episode 4 (Mysterious Illuminations), when the encounter is shared with another witness, it can deepen the experience and help to remove any nagging doubt about what took place.

Ep 4: Mysterious Illuminations
Send us a text
In this Winter Solstice bumper episode, our guest describes two encounters, both featuring the most enchanting light shows. One took place inside his home and the other was encountered in an ancient wood nearby. The sighting is quite amazing and throws to light a form of fairy being which has been reported to me previously and interestingly, always witnessed by two or more people.

Ep 2: A Call to the Otherworld
Our guest describes an truly beautiful experience whilst immersed in nature. The meeting itself was perhaps induced by her heartfelt song to the wilds. The response she received was truly breathtaking.
Here's a link to an example of kulning (cattle herd calling).
