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.

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.

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 🙏🏻 S H O W N O T E S Read George P.

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.

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!

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. https://youtube.com/@spookymstiyi?si=eer9ZYefAiicPRb6 https://spookymstiyi.com/https://youtube.com/@spookymstiyi?si=eer9ZYefAiicPRb6 https://spookymstiyi.com/ ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY GROUP ⭐️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / membership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like minded folks, access to the Discord channels and joining events with other members, join us at: / 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.

The Case of the 'Sandown Clown' on the Isle of Wight has intrigued researchers for decades. Now, a woman claiming to be the long-sought-after witness, 'Fay' (a pseudonym) who was seven when the encounter took place has made contact with fellow Wight Islander, Paul Wilson.

Ep 107: "It seemed familiar to me..." Fairy Sighting in the Home
Artist, Gina McAdam kindly shares her memories of childhood companionship with the presence of fairies in her garden and more recently, right before Covid Lockdown, seeing a small "conker shaped", rodent-sized being who walked into her lounge on it's knuckles and reversed out backwards! In the full length (1.5 hour) version on Patreon we discuss the resistance Gina felt towards talking about her experiences and how that shifted for her during our chat. She shares the story of the female spirit of a previous owner who regularly visited Gina's family in their childhood home. We hear how Gina and her two sisters became familiar with Otherworld, despite having parents who were atheists, and how her Father's family may have been more familiar with these worlds. ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY GROUP ⭐️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership⁠⁠⁠ If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like minded folks, access to the Discord channels and joining events with other members, join us at: https://www.patreon.com/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.

Ep 106: Circle of White Beings: Siôn from NW Wales
Siôn from Gwynedd, North West Wales shares some astonishing stories: A circle of beings appearing and reappearing, supernatural attack at a Crossroads, his childhood experience of a being seemingly impersonating his teddy, 'Pinky', his encounter a Green Wisp, the 'Egryn Lights' case and local 'Fairy Lakes' folklore. 🌟 Siôn is coming onto our Patreon members live zoom chat in July to speak to us in person.

Llyn Hafod y Llyn (The Lake of the Lake Lodge/Shelter!!) ‘Hafod’ is the word for a place on high land where the shepherds would stay in summer while tending their sheep. ( ‘Haf’=Summer ‘Fod’ = place/to be). Lastly, the story of the circle of beings that I was trying to remember actually happened in Westmeath, Ireland...It's in Dermot MacManus's The Middle Kingdom. It is set at Clonmillan Hill. The circle of beings move in a similar way to that reported by Siôn. In addition, just like report from NW Wales, this area was also known to be connected with Otherworldly experiences. The description of bagpipes suggest music may have also played an element.

Ep 104: Willa and the Forest Spirits (audio version)
Joining Patreon: Please do not join via the Apple app which takes a third of my membership fee! please join via Patreon at: https://www.patreon.com/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership A delightful chat with Willa, an Australian woman who has made her home in Zürich, Switzerland. A video version of this chat is on YouTube: https://youtu.be/oTsepRFupcc?si=5KGtwaH-N81DALqp Willa's encounter took place five years ago in the Tarragona region of Spain. Early one morning, she took a stroll through her friend's garden and came face to face with some beings, whom she describes as 'forest spirits', sitting in three trees growing inside a spiral of arrangement of rocks. As Willa described: "I saw them, they seemed to be “looking” at me. My impression was they were aware I could see them. The situation...lasted only for about a minute before they seemed to fold in on themselves and disappear." Describing herself as a lifelong 'skeptical person', we discuss how coming into contact with these beings has made a subsequent impact on Willa's life and how she feels about visiting this location in the Tarragona region again, later in the year. We also discuss Willa's call, to aid people like me and you who have become homeless. Here she is volunteering during lockdown in the kitchen of the Pfuusbus in Zürich. If you would like to donate or find out more about the Pfarrer Sieber organisation here's the website: https://www.swsieber.ch/In the UK there are several homelessness charities including Crisis, Shelter and St Mungo's In America: Habitat for Humanity, The Salvation Army and Covenant House.

Ep 101: Lodge Tales: Shapeshifters and Talking Owls
It was so great to finally meet with R O D W I L L I A M S O N from Lodge Tales Podcast - one of my favourite shows. Rod speaks to fellow members of his Native American community about their strange experiences. The conversations are absolutely wonderful and give a great insight into what we have largely lost in our material-paradigm-focused, modern Western society. https://lodge-tales.podcastpage.io/ We talk about what it was like for Rod to grow up in the Blackfeet Reservation in Montana, - one of the largest reservations in the US - with parents that understand about Otherworld...and others in the wider community who no longer remember their connections with these worlds. It was an honour to hear about Rod's experiences including talking owls, a shapeshifting cricket, Little People, the backward speak of Otherworld, a talking eagle speaking Blackfeet. He tells the terrifying story of the time he went down to the creek with his first cousin and her legs were pulled by an unknown force back beneath the waters. We discuss shapeshifting in general, how we might relate to Spirits and how we feel about the West reawakening to these ways of seeing the world. Huge thanks to Rod, please consider supporting his show and helping it to grow. Support Lodge Tales on Patreon Exciting News! This is TMFSP's first published episode with ⁠SpectreVision Radio⁠.

I credit the profound healing that I received from Martin Brofman in May 2005 with having my first fairy encounter. That healing placed me back on the track of my life, which beforehand had felt distant and impossible. It felt like I had 'come alive' at that point and had been sleepwalking through my life before that transition. Annick and I discuss: 🌈 how Martin healed himself and went on to create the System. 🌈 what each chakra represents in our bodies and our lives. 🌈 some of the experiences that have taken place in these classes. In the exclusive full-length version on Patreon we discuss: 🌈 how the chakra system can be used to understand what is currently happening in the world. During the class you will exchange 5 healings with other participants, using various techniques you have been taught. At the completion of the class, you will be able to: 1. Understand and experience yourself as a Being of energy. 2. Feel and direct energy, and see energy (auras, chakras, thought forms.) 3. Understand the relationship between your body and your consciousness. 4.
