The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast

I discuss the Marian apparitions of Garabandal with Brother Richard. The 18th June 2026 marks 65 years since the apparition of Archangel Michael appeared to four girls aged between 10 and 12 and told them that the Blessed Virgin Mary would visit them. On 2nd July she appeared to the girls and for the following five years, mulititudes of Marian visitations were reported drawing thousands of people to the small hamlet in northern Spain where they witnessed the girls in ecstatic trance.

I speak to Jessica in Oxfordshire who has had a number of encounters including a brownie. Her story begins with meeting a handsome Otherworldly man, dressed completely in green in her local woods who she feels turned out to be Gwyn ap Nudd. It sent her on a journey to discover her ancestry as connected to one of the 'Families of the 'Old North'. The quest entirely transformed the way she lives her life. This is part one of two episodes. ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY ⭐️ https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like-minded folks, access to the Discord chat channels, quiet meditation gatherings and meeting other members, join us at: https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership S U P P O R T If you’d prefer to support the Modern Fairy Sightings with a one off donation, you can ‘buy me a coffee’ and I’d be very grateful 🙂 https://buymeacoffee.com/modfairysight Or send a one-off donation to PayPal at https://paypal.me/modernfairysightings/ M E R C H !

In early childhood, Breanna became used to the presence of 'The Hat Man' - an increasingly-reported shadow-being. Recognisable as a tall, dark figure wearing a hat, and sometimes a cape or trench coat the Hat Man is often said to be without any distinguishable facial features and like 'The Dark Man', people describe him as "blacker than black."In the full length version on Patreon Breanna describes her aunt's encounter with a white lady on a bridge, folk magic in her community and what happened when her father visited a 'granny witch' The Hatman Project is full of stories from people who have also encountered The Hat Man.https://thehatmanproject.com/ ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY ⭐️ https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like-minded folks, access to the Discord chat channels, quiet meditation gatherings and meeting other members, join us at: https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership S U P P O R T If you’d prefer to support the Modern Fairy Sightings with a one off donation, you can ‘buy me a coffee’ and I’d be very grateful 🙂 https://buymeacoffee.com/modfairysight Or send a one-off donation to PayPal at https://paypal.me/modernfairysightings/ M E R C H !

It was wonderful to finally speak with Morgan who has produced a multitude of great books on the subject of fairies, magical practices and Irish myth.I was very interested to learn more about the encounter Morgan had with a more modern-sounding 'urban' fairy realm. PLUS we chatted about: 🌀 receiving strong messages from a non-human beings and some healing experiences 🌀 fairy safety precautions and guidelines when opening yourself to these worlds. 🌀 what to do when you find yourself in a negative encounter with The Good Folk 🌀 how our approach to these worlds and fairy lore has changed over time 🌀 Morgan briefly introduced their new book, ⁠Paid with a Kiss: Love and Sex in Fairy Belief https://amzn.eu/d/6K1ZdI4⁠ Re Morgan's trip to Iceland Grýla and her 13 Yule Ladshttps://www.exploringiceland.is/blog/gryla-and-her-13-yule-lads ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY ⭐️ https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like-minded folks, access to the Discord chat channels, quiet meditation gatherings and meeting other members, join us at: https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership S U P P O R T If you’d prefer to support the Modern Fairy Sightings with a one off donation, you can ‘buy me a coffee’ and I’d be very grateful 🙂 https://buymeacoffee.com/modfairysight Or send a one-off donation to PayPal at https://paypal.me/modernfairysightings/ Warning: These are not fairytales and the content is unsuitable for children.

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 ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY ⭐️ https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like-minded folks, access to the Discord chat channels, quiet meditation gatherings and meeting other members, join us at: https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership S U P P O R T If you’d prefer to support the Modern Fairy Sightings with a one off donation, you can ‘buy me a coffee’ and I’d be very grateful 🙂 https://buymeacoffee.com/modfairysight Or send a one-off donation to PayPal at https://paypal.me/modernfairysightings/ Warning: These are not fairytales and the content is unsuitable for children.

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.
