I just finished a novel called The Cottingley Secret by Hazel Gaynor...which tells this story. How wonderful to see this photo and know it actually happened 🥀🧚‍♂️🧚‍♀️🧚

I feel like this is a study more of how gullible people can be

Such silliness.

The "photographs" look obviously fake to me.

My own personal take on this wonderful story is that people at the time were willing to believe in it as an escape from the massive trauma of the great war .

The photos here are enhanced, sharper, not exactly as the girl made them. And these were kids trying to pull one over on their family. They had no idea how out of hand it would get.

Thanks 🌸

As James Randi has said it is easy to fool people who are not experts in a field. It is important to remember how popular spiritualism and seances were at that time.

I agree they are stunning photos. To do that with a manual photographic film camera requires genuine skill, I speak from experience. But by today's discernment levels, they do look fake. Mostly because there is no real-world shading on the "fairies", they are completely flat.

Oh I really wish u could have just let it be. We need fun things to believe in....

Thank you for sharing your story. I too have been healing myself through creating art. Best form of therapy I know. Life is hard but manageable when I can express myself.

What really doesn’t make sense is that Iin a house that small, no parent saw the giant cut outs of fairies Frances was making? How about all the art supplies and her amazing drawing talent? It doesn’t sound right to me. Additionally, they are traipsing off with all these 18 inch long card board cutouts… no one watched them leave? The camera was expensive, are we all agreeing that the dad just gave it to Frances and didn’t even walk them to the front door? The parents were lying. They knew.

The fairies look too perfect and still despite being “in motion”. Was Arthur Conan Doyle losing it? He saw these originals. No blur at all for the fairies when everything else is so soft or blurry?

My favourite photograph series. 💜

fairies, like beauty, ...and dragons, elves, menehunes, leprachauns, Angels! are ALL very real..AND in the eye of the Beholder..just as reality is. We keep forgetting that we each create our own reality..and Collectively this manifests as the world we "SEE" around us.

What kind of glue are you using? 4:20

So helpful and your directions are clear and easy to follow.

BTW How can a 9 year old in 1917 be born in 1901? More like 1898 one would think. Leeds University eh? You also mix up Elsie and Frances' names too often

Arthur Conan Doyle was a little bit crazy of course with his spiritualistic and mystic nonsense. Maybe that's why he was such a great writer although he never really liked Sherlock Holmes

Just a bunch of posh people with plenty of time on their hands...what we have in the history of art is a middle class perspective and even more so today...

I'm was very young at the time around six of nine year old and I read this article or story about true fairies using this picture, that the start of me believing to the supernatural .

27:36 family of Elsie says she says this was the only real photo - see them on antiques road show.

I recently discovered I have seven relatives buried in Woodhouse cemetery. I wanted to go lay some flowers at the graves, but your University has robbed me of the chance of doing so, destroying my families graves to make an empty field for students to relax is disgusting, you should be ashamed of yourselves. Over 95,000 people were buried there and all you did was destroy their graves for profit. People in that cemetery served in World war One and Two and put their lives on the line so we could have freedom and you go ahead and wreck their final resting place. People who fought for this country should be honoured and respected. Not disrespected the way you've disrespected them by turning their grave into a playing field for students to run riot on and play football on. Change St. George's fields name back to Woodhouse cemetery. Absolutely disgusting behaviour from a disgusting University.

Excellent job! Be wonderful to have a video of the whole text slowly moving with the illustrations also.

Most conspiracy theories though are true. The "Globe" isn't.

Elsie's father thought highly of Conan Doyle at one stage, but when when CD went on and on about the fairies, Mr Wright would shake his head and wonder how such an intelligent man could be manipulated by 'our Elsie, and her at the bottom of the class'. When I was 15, I used to read to my great grandmother who was bed-ridden and she loved unexplained mysteries. So I read her the Cottingley Fairies and showed her the pics. The first thing she said was 'Why don't the fairies look at the camera? Why do we only see them side on?' I'm 58 now and I always remember that.

I wonder why Faires would be wearing dresses

Crystal clear - and as my haptic skills are in their infancy, I am very grateful for the skills you demonstrated! Wonderful idea of you to offer such from the Uni Library - thank you to all involved.

Could you please also look into the Ariel School UFO Landings, which seem to have quite powerful parallels to this incident (minus photography)?

So interesting. Such beautiful photos and for two girls of their age amazing placement and artistic vision. Such a shame it went too far for them to take credit for it but, I assume it would be difficult to do that in their time.

I cant debate the Cottingley Fairies but I will say as God is my witness,,when I was 5 years old,at Easter time I was standing on our front porch when all of a sudden a large rabbit appeared and hopped up on the porch walking on his hind legs. His fur was light grey and he was about 4 feet tall, wore black shiny shoes,his feet covered in white tight 17th century stocking's and his jacket had dress tails in the jacket which was light blue with a crochet bib and he held over his right arm (paw) a little woven basket lined with a cloth holding coloured eggs. He hopped on past me and passed on into the house out of my sight. I screamed for mother who came rushing and then did a deep search of the house .She found nothing. I never saw him again but I believe in fairies just like most of the people in Iceland do who have protected area for save living terrain for them to dwell safely from human traffic.

Hes my great uncle this was nice to see

HI - I've just recently edited a new video featuring this case. See what you think. All the best; ua-cam.com/video/T6hasPvsPcM/v-deo.html

There's no way to turn off the captions. 😢

It's strange that he didn't comment about the fact that one of the girls/ladies in her last days is supposed to have said that one particular photo was not a fake ??

Thank you for this insight. I love Japanese Art, including fabric patterns.
