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 with a green ‘wisp’, The Egryn Lights case and local ‘Fairy Lakes’ folklore.

Siôn reveals an encounter that his Uncle’s friend reported around twenty years ago, after walking in a particularly remote, marshy area in the mountains between Llanegryn on the North West coast and Abergynolwyn, North West Wales.


“I was visiting my uncle in hospital at the time and he had just received a visit from this close friend just before I had arrived. The account was fresh in his mind and [my uncle] had no reason to think that his friend would make such a story up, no matter how amazing it seemed…at the time…”

Sadly, his uncle died unexpectedly a short time later and Siôn regrets that he didn’t get to ask him any more about it. He has since reached out to his Aunt who remembers the story her husband told, but is unable to identify which of his friends it might have been.

The difficulty of tracking the person down is made trickier (as experiencers will know) by the fact that these stories are largely kept secret, and only ever shared with those who we feel might understand.

Nevertheless, Siôn remembers the account vividly and shares it with us here.

Llyn Hafod y Llyn (the green wisp experience)
It happened around two miles from Siôn’s brother’s house near a picturesque lake nestled in a forest.

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. The circle of beings moves 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 here. :

“Clonmillan Hill has always had a reputation for being connected with the fairies, including the great Shee as well as the lesser Shee-og… The two girls had not got halfway up when the boys who had only gone on a short distance down the Mullingar Road, heard them call out. When the lads looked back they saw that the girls had stopped and were looking earnestly into the field on their right. After a few moments they saw the girls turn back and run down the lane on to the main road again. On reaching the road, the girls went over to a gate opposite the lane and stared into the field beyond it. Then they began urgently beckoning to the boys to join them there. They boys, who were thirty or forty yards away, ran up at once, little dreaming what an extraordinary thing they were about to see.

Whey they joined the girls at the gate and looked through it, to their utter astonishment they saw, some forty yards away, a group of dark figures of human size standing in a circle about ten yards in diameter. Black capes or shawls were draped over their heads and hung across their shoulders and from there dropped straight down to or into the ground, but with no crease or bend where they reached it. The figures stood so close together that their draperies touched from the shoulders down, making it impossible to see past them. They were quite motionless, even to folds and pleats of their draperies, as if carved out of some black stone, and their heads were erect. Mr Gowran [one of the boys grown up] says emphatically that these black cloaks were not woollen but were made of some very fine cloth that was not shiny, and so could not have been silken either.

Another remarkable feature was that the whole centre of the circle of figures appeared to be covered by a black cloth at the height of their shoulders. From it rose what seemed to be a chest – or though the children did not think of it at the time, a coffin – and it, too, was covered by the same black material, which lay snugly on the chest and showed its shape clearly. The top of the chest was a foot or a little more above the heads of the surrounding figures. And on the top of this chest lay a set of old Irish bagpipes. Mr Gowran can still describe them in detail and can remember just how they lay. There were three drones each about three feet long, one of which lay towards him and the other two away from him. The bag and the mouthpiece hung down over the side of the box. The drones were of unusual shape and were as thick as a big man’s wrist.

The children had stood looking at this curious sight for a considerable time, probably two or three minutes, when they saw Dan Jackson, the owner of the field, and his eighteen-year –old son approaching from the field beyond it, which was divided from it by a small ditch and strolled unconcernedly on. It seemed as if they were going to walk up to the figures, but it was soon clear that neither of them saw anything unusual, and after passing within six feet of the dark silent figures, they approached the gate.

Afraid of being asked awkward questions, and being rather alarmed at what they saw, the four children ran off towards the town just before the two men reached the gate. But the two boys, being bolder than the girls, stopped after they had gone a short distance and peered through the hedge again. They were now alongside the next field and so had to look through the side hedge as well, but they found a gap and saw that the mysterious figures were still quietly standing, but the circle had moved some ten yards further away and was now close to the ditch of the next field, covering the track along which the two men had just passed.”

Ep 104: Willa and the Forest Spirits

A delightful chat with Willa, an Australian woman who has made her home in Zürich, Switzerland. Willa’s encounter took place five years ago in the Tarragona region of Spain.

Warning: These are not fairytales. The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast is designed for viewers and listeners 16 years and older. This show is unsuitable for children or anyone who might be sensitive to creepy content.

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.”

This is an image of the beings that Willa drew recently. She said “here was a hint of wandjina about them.”

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.

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.

Ep 94: Otherworldly Hiking Encounter (Sedona, Arizona)

I chat to Tim about a strange interaction which took place during a hike and tapped deeply into his psyche.

This marked both a shift in Tim’s life direction and a return to his underlying sense of ‘true’ self and an openness in life which had slipped away during adulthood. It continues to hold meaning in his current relationships.

We discuss how our home environment as a child shapes how we interact with the Otherworld and how, as an adult we can lose our sense of ‘being’. I hope you enjoy this discussion.

The discussion he watched between Patrick Harpur and ‘a philosopher’ was the interview between Patrick and Bernardo Kastrup. https://youtu.be/r4hEOJQpbiw?si=NTraD-Iog8xMCEzx

Ep 93: Fairies of Hedges and Homes (Sheffield, England)

This is the story of a woman from Sheffield in the North of England, who experienced a fairy flying out from a hedge near her home, in an area which had already felt particularly special to her. She later encountered an imp while staying in a holiday cottage with her family.

With a history of mediumship that seems to have been passed down her ancestral lineage through her great grandmothers (listen to the full extended version on Patreon for a discussion on her mediumship experiences) , Corinne shares how her abilities showed up initially and how she was ultimately able to use visualisation to release a fairy being who appeared to be unwittingly ‘stuck’ in this material plane.

This episode was recorded in July 2024.

⭐️ BONUS ⭐️ In the extended full length P A T R E O N version we also hear about our guest’s encounter with the Angel Metatron and how her experiences with the Otherworld continue to inspire her artwork.

Writer, David Halpin is a specialist in Irish folklore, fairylore and mythology in general and ideas around consciousness.

David looks at the Irish stories and fairy folklore in a refreshing way, through the lens of writers such as Jacques Vallée and John Keel. His group, Circle Stories on Facebook is an excellent resource and there is a shortened version of Circle Stories on Instagram.

We discuss some of the stories on Duchas.ie Schools Collection (see link below) which relate to children. Some of these involve children being taken to fairyland NB. these are not changeling stories which are a separate type of fairy lore. We also talk about unconsecrated burial grounds called ‘cillíns’.

Ep 90: Druid Adrian Rooke and Gwyn ap Nudd, King of the Fairies

Adrian is a well-known and much-loved Druid of The Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids. He is a dear friend. I often join him at Stanton Drew to provide the the equinox and solstice public ceremonies. Everyone is welcome. The link to the Facebook page for dates etc is below.

Some years ago, he told me about his experience with Gwyn ap Nudd. I know Ade well and there’s very little that phases him but this encounter had a profound effect on him, as he describes here.

We also touch on: 
– what it’s like to feel different in this world
– the struggles of addiction
– finding your true path and much more!

I hope you enjoy this chat. Adrian has led a really interesting life and has helped so many people in his role as a counsellor, particularly for people suffering from addictions. We all love his stories and he has a lot of wisdom to impart in this world.

⭐️ In the B O N U S episode on Patreon I share a video about the ‘Dancing Fairies of Sennen Cove’ Cornwall, where I visited in August.

Ep 91: Darragh Mason: The Dark Man

I chat to Darragh Mason, author, researcher and host of Spirit Box Podcast, about his new book Song of the Dark Man.

Our discussion begins with an overview of what, rather than who, ‘The Dark Man’ is. We then move onto the folklore and finally go over some of the first hand encounters which make up the second half of Darragh’s book.

It’s genuinely a fantastic read and I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. I also found that it brought a deeper understanding to the encounters that we’ve heard here on Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast, where our guests have crossed paths with aspects of The Dark Man.

So, if you haven’t got your hands on a copy of Song of the Dark Man yet, then tarry not…you need this book in your life 🖤

And be sure to check out Spirit Box Podcast on YouTube where, through his interviews with a fine array of incredible guests, Darragh explores folklore, esoterica and the mysteries of spirit world: https://www.youtube.com/@SpiritBox

Darragh also has a Spirit Box Podcast Patreon group which I am in too. It’s a brilliant community of people, sharing and supporting one another. Always something interesting happening. I highly recommend it as a community with a great bunch of folks 💚
