I speak to Jessica in Oxfordshire who has had a number of encounters including a brownie. Her story begins with meeting a handsome Otherworldly man, dressed completely in green in her local woods who she feels turned out to be Gwyn ap Nudd. It sent her on a journey to discover her ancestry as connected to one of the 'Families of the 'Old North'. The quest entirely transformed the way she lives her life. This is part one of two episodes. ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY ⭐️ https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like-minded folks, access to the Discord chat channels, quiet meditation gatherings and meeting other members, join us at: https://www.patreon.com/c/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/ M E R C H !

Recognisable as a tall, dark figure wearing a hat, and sometimes a cape or trench coat the Hat Man is often said to be without any distinguishable facial features and like 'The Dark Man', people describe him as "blacker than black."In the full length version on Patreon Breanna describes her aunt's encounter with a white lady on a bridge, folk magic in her community and what happened when her father visited a 'granny witch' The Hatman Project is full of stories from people who have also encountered The Hat Man.https://thehatmanproject.com/ ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY ⭐️ https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like-minded folks, access to the Discord chat channels, quiet meditation gatherings and meeting other members, join us at: https://www.patreon.com/c/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/ M E R C H !
