Episode description

Once upon a time in the early 20th century, two girls in England photographed what respected members of society called "evidence of fairies". Was this so? Or simply an elaborate hoax designed to play into our desire to believe in the fantastical? On this special guest episode Hope and Isabel dive into this enigmatic mystery involving religious cults, camera tricks, and Sherlock Holmes. We would like to thank the author, poet, and illustrator Forrest Lybrand for taking us through this wonderful and startling tale of childhood curiosity and its power to change our adult preconceptions of the world.
