- The Gnomes Of Wollaton Park, Nottingham (UK Paranormal)
Explore the eerie and fascinating events that unfolded at Wollaton Park, Nottingham, on the evening of September 23, 1979. In this video, we dive into the mysterious story of a group of children who encountered strange little men and their bubble cars in an off-limits area known as "the swamp."
Wollaton Park, a sprawling 500-acre sanctuary in Nottingham, England, is renowned for its picturesque deer park and the grandeur of Wollaton Hall, a quintessential Elizabethan prodigy house. This historic estate, housing the Nottingham Natural History Museum and the Nottingham Industrial Museum, stands as a beacon of beauty and tranquility. Yet, on that September evening, this serene landscape became the backdrop for an extraordinary event that left a group of local children in awe and disbelief.
Around dusk, a group of young children, not yet teenagers, were seeking adventure. It must have been around 8pm, a time when it was not unusual for kids to be playing outside until dark. This particular group of kids was playing near a fenced-off conservation area in Wollaton Park, which they referred to as “the swamp.” Through a hole in the fence, four of the kids ventured into the forbidden swamp, leaving the younger ones outside the fence.
As darkness fell, Patrick tripped and fell, only to notice strange noises in the woods. To their astonishment, a diminutive figure, about 2.5 feet tall, hopped out from a hole along the fence line and started gesturing towards them. Soon, a mob of gnomes in wollaton park, all laughing and gesturing, began to emerge from the trees. These beings had wrinkly faces, long white beards, and wore green Victorian-style nightcaps, thin blue tops, and green or yellow tights.
According to the children, there were around sixty of these little men, traveling in pairs in thirty small bubble cars of varying colors. These cars had odd triangular-shaped lights and no discernible engine noise. Despite the initially joyful appearance of these beings, the children felt both enchanted and afraid. The little men began to chase the children, who managed to escape back through the hole in the fence.
The story doesn't end there. This wasn't the first time these beings had been seen in Wollaton Park. Past sightings include various strange creatures and vehicles in the area, raising questions about local folklore and the nature of these mysterious visitors.

It's incredible to think that the kids saw little men in the darek, in the parek, driving cares and someone also saw one in his gareden. They were lucky not to have been haremed.
I thought the same! Never in my life have I heard an English accent that pronounces words with the ‘ar’ sound in such an extreme way. The accent sounds like it’s probably more North West than anywhere but still, I’ve never heard the word ‘park’ pronounced ‘pairk’ or ‘car’ ‘cair’ never! I presume it’s put on as at 0:79 the second time he says ‘car’ it’s pronounced more normally! Weird and more weird than the story itself.
Oh the joys of a 70's childhood.... reading Noddy & BigEars books whilst eating magic mushrooms 🍄 in Autumn 🍂? 😁😜
My late brother who sadly committed suicide back in 2018 aged 48, once told me that on a school trip to wollaton park in the 1970s they witnessed little men in bubble cars coming up the hill.My brother was sure he hadn't flipped or imagined it because other kids witnessed this too.
Mass hysteria formed from still developing minds. It didn't happen, sorry, but that's the truth.
Oh yes! This is a story I’ve heard about 😊
@@dnr2089
Wonder if you knew my brother or heard similar witness accounts of this.?
Im quite sure Shrouded Hand has a video about that case, though it could be this one too. I remember it specifically, because I had to google what on earth could be referred as bubble cars - at first I thought it meant old VW Beetles..
Edit: So sorry about your brother, it sucks so hard, but I believe he is at peace now. Tiny silver lining.. I just turned 48 myself, btw. 70s kids rule!
Sorry to hear about your brother. 😢 the bubble car thing sounds spooky.
About 20 years ago I lived on a protest site known as 9 ladies in Derbyshire. there was this delapidated old forge by a spring where we got our water from that was said to be haunted by a creature the locals referred to as a hob goblin or boggart. Various protesters. Visitors and tourists claimed to have encountered it over the time I stayed there and described it as resembling a Jawa from Starwars. A small figure in a hooded robe about 2-3 ft tall with glowing eyes. i never saw it myself, but reports from independent witnesses who had never met each other remained consistent. in one instance it was claimed it attacked and tried to strangle a pregnant woman at a small gathering in the presence of 6 winesses. I spoke to a few of them who seemed genuinely disturbed by what had transpired and a local wiccan coven attempted a cleansing or banishing ritual as a result. I don't know what the outcome of that was though. Pretty weird stuff.
Very interesting indeed!
Wow! 👺😮
I live near 9ladies, all i can say is the mushrooms grow very magically here.Maybe that explains the bogart you claim to have witnessed 😂
@@samanthawatkinson9925 Sounds great to me! 🙂 (Why is it called 9 ladies?)
Interesting - I'm not sure where that place is, but my husband was raised in Derbyshire (near Ashbourne) and when we were first married, we lived in his parents' house, while they lived down south. He worked in Chesterfield, so we'd commute there every day. I'd hang out in the library while I waited for him to get off work. But on the way to Chesterfield, there are few 'main' roads, it's all back roads and narrow tracks, so it takes forever. Anyway, one morning as we were on the way to Chesterfield, I was looking out the window, and I saw this tiny little person-creature, standing in the grass beside the road, staring back at me. He had on a brownish green outfit and hat, and looked in human years to be anywhere between 50-70. But all in the size of maybe 10 inches tall, tops. Idk who was more surprised, him or me lol But I only saw him that one time. If it helps, it was not far from Pikehall, near Minninglow.
I told my husband what I'd seen, and he said it was probably a hedgehog, but I know what I saw. Hedgehogs don't have human faces, wear clothes, or stand up like that. Imho, the Little People are still in the British Isles, even if ppl don't know it. (for all I know, they could be anywhere 🤷)
These kids must have been turrified playing in this purk in the durk 😂.
😊
Oh to be care-free......!
Probably not. Britain was relatively safe in those days,compared to now.
I noticed that aswell. But it's more daark in de paark in caars that waarn't very laarge!!
Shouldn't mock people who can't pronounce their A's properly due to speech impediment
not sure about gnomes, but there are definitely magic mushrooms in those woods 😂
I believe what people say. My mother (it would now have been a century ago) saw a shining fairy poised on the rim of a tea cup. It was beautifully coloured and she called her mother to come and look, but by then it was gone.
It’s a tale as old as I can remember. I remember my Dad telling me about the “Gnomes” when I was a kid. I visit Wollaton park quite frequently, though I’ve never encountered anything but Deer 🦌
Don’t you mean Wollaton Peerrkk!
@@KINGSLEY-TV 😂😂
My family have been visiting Wollaton Hall for decades, I worked there for a couple of years, and never heard this story! Nice one 😂
Been to Wollaton Hall dozens of times and this is the first I've heard if this.
This is a well known story
@dnr2089 Really? I've gone their regularly since I was about 5. Gone on school trips there, took my own family there and honestly never heard it before. It's intriguing though.
Same, never heard of this before in my life, gonna have to ask my parents next time I see them if they know anything about it
@@bencastor9207 I asked me mam and she hadn't heard of it either. It has me curious for more info though.
Swamps, bogs and marshes have a weird reputation generally. In folktales a wrinkled skin and faces is often an attribute of characters associated with water, such as rivers, burns and wells, which suggests the appearance of skin after periods of immersion in water. The middle english Bogle var. Boggle recorded in early 1500s, which gives modern English, bug, bogey as in bogey man, and possibly Manx Buggane, and similar, appears related to the word bog, which has cognates in Celtic and Germanic languages, that indicate soft, as in soft ground, and Old English bugan, meaning to bend, bow or curve, as in boggy ground underfoot. The medieval chronicler Gervais of Tilbury mentions tiny men living in the marshes of Essex called Portunes, writing they ate frogs, and seem associated with a strange luminous phenomena we know as Will o' the Wisp.
Bogs were favored places for human sacrifice in pre-Christian days. Tacitus wrote about the Ingaevones drowning male slaves in bog as a sacrifice to a goddess.
I love these anomolous type stories of strangesness, Especially in places (Anywhere across the pond, As I was born & live in U.S.A.) Also your delivery & commentary prose are nicely done. I immediately subscribed (Just Now!) Not to mention I absolutely appreciate great word pronunciation!!! Great Stuff.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great word pronunciation?, is,nt that the pot calling the kettle black, you guy's abuse the ENGLISH language and pronounce everything wrong!, so how would you know if correct or not?.
We have our own gnome sightings here "across the pond." Check out the red cap sightings in Porterville, California. 😉
I love those gnomes! 😄👍
(Shrouded Hand's channel does a good coverage of the strange incident too. 👍)
Love your accent btw!
Thank you 😊
What accent? That is how folk up North speak over here! It's the rest of the country that has accents 😊
@@Fanny-Fanny 😄
Brilliant and either way, just imagination, something that has become less harmless every year. If they seen something, I won't judge them because I wasn't there, thank you 😊❤.
I live here. 😮 There's gnomes
Saw any? 😊
Me too... haven't seen any myself? I use to walk my dog there.
Are you a Gnome?
Me and my cousins explored all of wollaton park up to the point authorities were called. We’ve even been in some rooms you shouldn’t go in the house and plenty of places around the grounds.
The swamps are behind the house in wollaton vale, we have never seen anything out of the ordinary at any point of the day or night. The only thing is there is a strange house in the swamp to which we were shot at by a man with an air rifle. Game keeper I would say
Was going to say - the swamp would be round the other side of the lake and not where this video says it is, right? Interesting if there's a house in there if so
Blimey, I used to walk the dog there at night whilst I was tripping on psylocybin. Never saw any little men in cares though.

That’s what gnomes are doing, be kind to them, they’re only here to help the blessed Mother Earth 💚💚
Sorry to be the one to tell you this, but they're right up there with Father Christmas in the made up mumbo jumbo list
@@boyzinthewood1 - Stop talking rubbish, of course they’re all real!
@@PaddyDoc yeah OK. You do you
@@boyzinthewood1just wondering how you claim to know that😅
@skycat777u.k5 common fucking sense. Anyone who believes in anything without any evidence whatsoever at all is just stupid.
Just wondering how you claim their real 😂 lmao. You have no argument, no point to make and no proof. So I'm guessing you're one of the stupid ones.
The narrator pronounces his A's as E's -
They drove their CERS through the DERK PERK 🙃
I live not too far from Nottingham but I've never heard pronunciation like this.
@@greenjay8096 No. It kind of has a little hint of Liverpool to it, but it's not Liverpudlian...
Some sort of Yorkshire accent I'm guessing hull area.
@@JamesCourtney-yu6vc A Hull accent? Interesting!
@@oneoflokis yes my grandmother apparently sounded like this according to my dad. Also an old friend of my brother's did too- eg.' a can of cerk' !
Gnome encounters! 😳
Bad for your 'elf.
😅
My mother at around the age of six years saw what she described as being an elf sat by the fireplace. It was early afternoon, she ran inside went to find her mother and saw the strange creature sat, crossed legged. Initially she thought it was a doll.
That was until it's eyes moved towards her. Like those kids in the video, the elf looked very old and wrinkled. Similar size too, but skinny. It wore what looked like dark brown, tight clothing and had rested it's chin between it's hands.
She screamed, told mum, went back and it wasn't there.
Well time to visit wallaton park again but at night it's only hour away from me 😂
Take a big net
Iiving in ng1 ...😂 Will take a bus...
I live in Notts myself ... the park is closed at night so not being a kid looking to venture over gates, I guess I'll never get to witness them!?
There's no place like gnome.
There's no place like gnome.
Oh gnome you didn't 😅
Can we get a comment from one of the kids, please, if you see this! how they view the manifestation after decades of reflection. A great account of fortean high strangeness. Graham Hancock mentions it in his book 'Supernatural'. The mistake people make is analysis based on known Human preconceived concepts of science. Note the speed and geometric rapid jerking movements observed in so many classic UFO and humanoid encounters. All very interesting! 🧐
I remember a story from the 'sixties, in what I presume would have been Bromley.
Aparently this man, Mr Jones was walking down the High Street when he heard foot steps behind him and there was a little old man in scarlet and grey, chuckling away.
It seems he trotted back to the man's house and he sat beside the telly with his tiny hands on his tummy, chuckling away, laughing all day.
I can't remember what else happened.
I'm not surprised that they only appear to young kids. That's the way it is with the little folk. I grew up living in Cornwall and I knew they were there. It's easy for people to turn around and say "that's the stuff of fairy tales" but where did those tales derive then? From reality. In Cornwall they're called piskies.
Whilst presented well, there's a number of key points missing.
The children number six rather than four, four has frequently referenced from the photo. They entered and left the park via the same entrance as they lived in Radford, the other side of Lenton. When facing the front gates of the park entrance, the "swamp" area is no longer as swampy and is definitely the wild area to the left of the hall. In the childrens own references, they leave the adventure playground to cross the swamp to return to the way they came in and into Lenton.
Re: Frank Earp of the Nottingham Hidden History Team with Dr Simon Young.
There are three further accounts one from the 1920s a boat with 2 Lilliputian dressed figures rowing across and into the reeds. There is a further account in the 1960s where a couple visiting the city who do the Nottingham tourist stuff inc Wollaton Hall and spot a small figure on the lake. The person they tell, is the son of the individual from the 1920s encounter - remarkably though he hadnt primed them beforehand.
In 1972 there is a first hand account I sourced from M.H. i have an audio recording / transcribed and sent to Dr Simon Young and Frank Earp. Where a family unit of a young girl, older sister and two parents spot a "bumper car, bumper car!" moving through the woodland. I asked if i could speak to the sister to confirm this event. To which there was a confirmation of the younger sister trying to convince them she had seen the car. Though she personally did. Remembers the insistence of her sibling.
These are included in a wider overview presentation produced for ASSAP that is available on youtube. Along with a conversation with M.H. who joined the live discussion at the end of the presentation.
Last contact with the "main event" six of 1979, is the eldest has been doing a stint on prison.
Nottingham Evening Post produced "Bygones" featured a case from the mid-late 1990s of a person who saw a Big Ears like character sat on a bench, a car appeared another bearded gnome figure got out, hit the benched gnome and stole his sandwich! Before getting back into the car and the scene disipates
This story always reminded me of shriners on go karts lol
That's the image I had in my mind too 🤣
Dead Kennedy's 🙌🙌🙌😎😉
@@eeriesvaultWhat's your accent Dear Sir, it's lovely.🌹👍
Why does he say perk instead of park. I live in England and his accent is very weird never heard it before when he speaks quickly it changes very odd.
He’s an AI voice
Sounds either Lancashire or Yorkshire, pretty certain it’s not AI either
@@cherrybass11l lived in Lancashire until l was twenty three, then Yorkshire until l was fifty one, l have never heard an accent like this.
@@Andrea-mg9py well fair enough but i am surprised to hear you say you have never heard an accent like this, I have also lived in Lancashire/North Yorkshire area my whole life and the accent doesn’t sound that alien at all, definitely hear some West Yorkshire in some of the words, anyway I guess there’s only one person who could tell us
Sounds like morcambe ways or south lancs if you listen he pronounces dark 1st in a similar way as derk or dirk….then later over pronounces it as DAr(K(hard K)) this indicates a mix of accents possibly from a area closer to Liverpool who also pronounce a hard (K) also cars pronounced as kerrs
So intriguing!!! You tell it best!
I’ve heard stories about strange goings on in the grottos beneath Wollaton park. Nothing paranormal, just weirdos running round in masks and robes and performing rituals and that kind of thing
That would be the LARPers
I've seen video of such a small being in Argentina, more than 20 years ago.
The swamp is still there and fenced off. The actual location is here: 52.943660,-1.218361.
The area you mark near the school has no swamp and is just a small patch of dry woods.
I skipped school a few times in them very woods, there once was a swamp / bog but it was very small. Most of the section was dry. I remember the bog because my friend lost a shoe in it lol
Wollaton is pronounced with an ooh, like woollaton (wool) more than the shorter wol. Some of the local pronunciations aren't like how theyre spelt 😊
Yeah and not always right. Look how they pronounce Belvoir. They pronounce it as Beaver because they’re terrible in French words
@@JanBanJoovi-ol1qvEven the locals can't decide on how to say Southwell.
The little oddities of the English language are fascinating, and places would be much duller without the quirks. Dialect is fascinating.
You'll find that the more native Nottinghamians call it Suth'ell whereas the posher and less local will call it Southwell.
Even as a umpteenth generation, I still call Belvoir Belvoir.
@@cmdfarsight I’m guessing you pronounce Belvoir as Beaver instead of “Belle Vwa”
@@JanBanJoovi-ol1qv Nah. That's Leicester folk that do that. Us Nottingham folk would say Bel vwa.
Looking forward to more videos!
Thanks, looking forward to making them!
Another home run. Great work. I'm not crazy about the musical interludes, but that's just me. Loved the stories!
Much appreciated!
Fun story tho....you will see many deer and animals in the park tho. 👍
I’ve never heard the pronunciation perk for park before 😮
Same here. It's a wee bit off-putting, as I keep fixating on it.
It sounds Liverpudlian except the rest of his accent sounds Yorkshire…
No surprise that wollaton hall is a hotbed for mushroom picking 🤔
where ? they grow ?
Weird one I've heard before,the one thing that stands out is the other stories....bit odd over so many years these kids described something fairly similar over such a wide area,that kinda bumps it up from the kids making tall tales.
"Why are you covered in mud!? Get up to the bathroom, now!"
"We were chased!"
"Who by?"
"Little people!"
*clip round the ear* "Stop making up stories!"
😅 yes
Sounds like a fair amount of sightings of different types of beings from that area... perhaps there is a porthole there.
Or a pond....
Portal😊
Porthole? 😂
@@dnr2089 haha oopsie well now I know
@@boardskins haha thank you!
Keith Richard’s saw them too, so it must be true.
Arse biscuits!
Maybe the kids saw what was familiar to them, it’s not unknown in stories that adults have related involving Aliens, could the time discrepancy be solved by the kids having some missing time another item familiar in encounters with aliens, they felt it was only 15 minutes but it was a couple of hours.
This is an excellent point, I never thought of that 👍
My comment didn't show up😢you tube Nazis don't like people telling the truth or sharing testimonys on how the Lord JESUS CHRIST YAHUSHUA saved them✝️✊😤anyways if your interested minutes of horror channel yesterday had vid of alleged knomes attacking people in South Africa thx mate👍
What accent has the narrator? It’s very strange and I’ve never heard it before and I’m English from Leicestershire, which borders Nottinghamshire. It sounds like he’s putting it on tbh . Bubble cares ( cars ) for instance . Payrk ( park ) … very strange ! Maybe he’s a gnome from Wollaton ( which should be pronounced Woolaton )
I'm guessing he's from somewhere ro rhe north east od the e.mids. maybe northeast Lincolnshire or somewhere up towards Hull maybe?
Your comment made me laugh. Cheers. I thought it was rather odd myself. Durk, purk, kerr????
He's got a Yorkshire accent but is attempting to add a liverpudlian twang to it as the story is in Liverpool
@@christinecox6049 the story is in Nottingham. Quite far from Liverpool
@@christinecox6049What on earth makes you think the story “The Gnomes of Wollaton Park Nottingham” has got anything to do with Liverpool?
If some of the kids had already seen these gnomes before, i don't understand why the story starts with this encounter, then casually mentions the earlier ones halfway through.
very odd.
@@countdowntorevolution9986 the girl claims to have seen them six weeks earlier. The transcript is quite interesting.
Remember the tune "not in Nottingham"? From robin hood. Im a 90's kid...
You mean the Maid Marrion one with Danny John-Jules & written by Tony Robinson?
Tommy Robinson...
Pretty similar to the Sam the Clown incident. Also young kids involved. Imagination or excuse for getting home late?
That Sandown clown story is my favourite odd tale. Can't find a single mention of it in any newspaper from the time unfortunately
Mushroom hallucinations
Nickelodeon had a cartoon called David the gnome , guess I was programmed different lol 😊
I think we disregard childhood experiences because they tend to be childlike and that does us a great disservice. I think our minds let us experience only that which allows us a fight or flight response and actually hides the whole truth of our experience as a survival mechanism. The children, having come across a strange entity will have known what gnomes are from garden ornaments that were very popular at the time and if only one mentioned it at first I have no doubt every child would have then on only seen that. If the sounds made by these entities was a fast gibbering then it could quite easily be mistaken for laughter making them seem happy. In darkness then the children could quite easily have been mistaken in their identity and a tree branch on the back could have been mistaken as an attack given the panicked state the children were obviously in. Only a good light source could have rendered a true image of what they saw no wonder then that they feared the light.
The comment stated that the person attacked was a pregnant woman though so she must have been an adult. This is not mentioned in the video but is a reference to the comment about Nine Ladies & the boggert there.
@@sarahstrong7174 I'm not sure you're replying to the right video. This is clearly about children.
@@robhudson1501It's a comment on a comment really, sorry for confusion.
Where is this guy from? I'm from the UK and heard many an accent, but none like this! As someone has already said PURK? I wondered what he was saying at first! 🤪
I can usually place accents down to the town in the UK but never heard anything like this! Save for memories of some older people when I was young. I’m thinking around north Peak District area maybe even as high as Halifax / Bradford.
@@jordanbeagle5779 I thought southern Lancs/north Derbyshire, but not Yorkshire. He sounds like Bernard Cribbins, and he was from Derker, in Oldham...formerly south Lancs.
Very strange pronunciation. Cares (cars), Park & Dark (perk & derk) are Irish pronunciations although this gentleman's accent isn't.
my bet is the green children way back had some tie in to these type scenarios ..... myself personally i encountered a faun cryptid

@anthonybrown7489 facts are facts, and the fact is that there is no single shred of proof whatsoever about any of it. It's all as made up as God and all religions. They were all an invention of man.
Fair enough if we were still living in the Middle Ages, where technology such as DNA tests and cameras didn't exist. But we live in 2024 and seeing as there's 7 billion people, on most all parts of the globe and nearly all of them have cameras, yet not 1 single real photo exists, no DNA has ever been found, nothing! Explain that, then. Or does logic escape you?
You got my Sub mate 😊
Awesome thanks
Good video, and a good channel. Don't let people's comments about your accent put you off, it's a good accent actually.
Second comment as for the timeline time is always obscured in many of the reports with elven people 🧐
Theres something in the barn!
Lol made me think of that film 😂
My dad was the caretaker of wollaton (pronounced wool - er - ton) for 20 years - robin (bob) clayden. He discovered the hidden late georgian/early victorian secret garden (lost/hidden) for over 100 years. Were it not for him it would not be open to the public now..and no plaque to him.😮 He was there from early morning to late night...sadly NO gnomes 😂😂😂
Grew up 20 mins from here on the other side of Notts. Can't say I ever saw any gnomes 😂 there are parakeets though
Now that everyone has a high definition video recorder in their pocket, I’m very much looking forward to seeing footage of these gnomes. Please reply to this message when we get it.
I’ll wait.
My dad knew EVERY inch of the place..he liked a drink (even at work hours) he see no gnomes even given this.😂😂😂
This sounds like a group hallucination to me.
This guy’s accent is fascinating. I’m guessing an older localised area in West Yorkshire.
You can hear him pronounce some words ending in “ly” and “er” as “eh”. Such as “Numbeh, “Friendleh”, “Totalleh” and “Angeluh”.
His use of “kids” puts him in the north of UK too.
As to what period and exactly which town/village I have no idea.
Very good 👍
Sounds like they must have all tripped over together. 🍄🍄🍄🍄
That’s not how you say Wollaton. You pronounce it like it has a double o -wool a tun
WHAAAAA? I lived nearby on derby road and Ive never heard about this story. Buttttt you should do a story about Lenton Hurst which is nearby on the Uni of Nottingham campus....it is allegedly haunted.
Thanks for the suggestion 👍
Lets play a little game called "Shelf your Elf!!!"😊😊😊
I'd love to know the real true-true here, but we probably never will. I try not to dismiss these reports out of hand. There's so much in this world we simply do not know. There could be some weird things the kids saw, and given the scary/creepy environment, they embroidered the event. The cars sound like something kids would dream up, but then again, we just don't know. Fascinating.
Yep, a really thought provoking story
So true. It blows your mind but a totallly different story if you have witnessed something so bizarre and just not fathomable.
A new interview with the witnesses is required. If all true, it must be very peculiar to live with the knowledge this once happened to them. My personal take: whatever manifested that evening merely adopted the form of gnomes but could've taken on any number of forms, many probably even far more frightening. Smart of them to have bolted out of there.
Think those kids got a bit peckish and then ate some mushrooms!
It should be easy enough to get to the bottom of this. Just ask the cashier at the nearest petrol station for the CCTV when little chaps in green suits and pointy hats are filling up undersized cars. Alternatively, contact the local post office and see if any suspiciously short people have tried to pay for their road tax with pots of gold.
Very good point
Inter demential portals exist you know.
I wondered what he was on about when he kept saying "cares", I realised he meant, "cars".
The gnomes from the first story scared somewhat. 😊😱
More like Rupert the bear(books) than Noddy.
Maybe they were in search of meat pies and figgy pudding!
The most convincing thing I’ve seen was a jet black triangle almost shadow like thing when i was at the pub one night and it was dark. It wasn’t only me who seen it so I know it wasn’t in my mind it was a dark triangle with a bright light directly in the middle it almost looked like a star. I didn’t think much of it and I still don’t know because it was completely static it didn’t move at all for almost 2 hours and I kept going out to look because I was fascinated and then eventually it completely disappeared. Even what looked like a star wasn’t there
I even have a video if I can still find it but it doesn’t look like much. That’s why I’m skeptical because it was completely still no movement whatsoever like you would imagine but it was as clear as day and it just vanished after a while. It was very odd
Was there a little people convention with an open bar nearby?
Yes
Whats a perk ???? Do you mean park .
Its where you drive a caere, a bit like a gaereden.
I read this in a heavy Boston accent for some reason. What's a perk... You mean a pAHk.
Central Perk 😊😊😊
Where are the kids today?🤔 They could dine out the story doing talks about their experience.
That A sounds life threatening ❤
What about the record the laughing gnome by David bowie from that era ,sounds more like the story's come from listening to that.
Kids eating magic mushrooms and describing the experiences. Kids generally know they have done something wrong and lie to cover up what they think it is that they are going to get into trouble for. And lot of trips include gnomes and little people i would love to hallucinate on the magic faraway tree.
What a strange accent you have. Where are you from?
I'm from all over the place 😉
@@eeriesvault what like omnipresent ,,, a paranormal one lol
This was all predicted by David Bowie some years earlier!
Gnomes can run up to 30 mph and are 3-4 x stronger than a grown man. Dangerous.
SUPER natural for sure haha
Love these kind of stories, but you got my sub based on cer, pert, perk, kert and derk.
I'll take that, Cheeaaars 👍
60's and 70's maybe the kids read some Enid Blyton?. Just a thought ?....😮
