A Fairy Story

The Cottingham Fairies is a very famous case that occurred around 1907 and took the world by storm. Two young girls had apparently photographed fairies and goblins in the woods near their home, and it triggered a debate about the very evolution of the human race. This week, we take a look at the mindset of the people at the end of the Great War, and how perhaps the need for something wonderful and magical to happen, was facilitated by the years of horror everyone had just endured. The belief system was perhaps eager for it to be true. Even Sherlock Holmes got involved,,,, well, Arthur Conan Doyle anyway. Listen now and decide for yourself... are fairies real, or are we all just eager to be scammed?Support the showwww.strangestuffpodcast.com<br/>www.patreon/strangestuffpodcast<br/>#strangestuffpodcast - Twitter & Instagram<br/><br/>We source our material from various web resources, and claim no credit for any original research, as we are too damn lazy/busy to actually carry it out.
