This is a lovely resource for faery lore--thank you for providing it. I wanted to let you know about our "Endicott Studio" web site for mythic fiction and art, which includes a bit of faery lore and contributions from Brian Froud, Alan Lee, and other artists and writers. We have a bit of Brian's art now, including info about his forthcoming new Faery book; and he has promised to put more art up on the site in the months to come. It's a new site, and still evolving. Thanks again for creating this unusual and charming faery page. -- Terri Windling Editor, Tor Books
this is a very nice page, full of stories and magic i love it.
If anyone has any information concerning the fantastic artist, F.Y. Cory, please e-mail me. So far, I know she is a distant relative of mine, but little information has surfaced within our family. Thanks a lot. This is an excellent site to check out as well. ~Echo~
Thank you!! This is a fantanstically helpful and beautiful site. I love to just peruse it or use it for research. Thanks
this was my 1st time seeing your page and i thought it was very well done. it has a distinct professional look about it and it is very thorough. i appreciate your love for folklore as i share the same love. very wonderful work!
It's wonderful! Thank you!
Flying visit but like the look of this so I've set it to my favourite list to come back.Looking for information on a character called Cuchullian if anyone can help please email me.
thank you for such a wonderful site.
do you know where i can get a picture of a Banshee??
As a witch, I found your page very beautiful.A stroke of genious on your part, I must say! Keep up the wonderful work!
This is really a beautiful website. I've been looking for something like this! Thanks! *~})i({~*
I love this web page about fairies but I wish there were more pictures. I love looking at pictures of fairies while I read about them. Or just have a section concentrated on illustrations of fairies. That would make this web page much better. Other than that it's perfect.
i think this is a very nice and interesting page. it is very well organized and done, but i think it should have more ilustrations about fairies.
This is a very wonderful web sight. I spent hours reading
all the poems an dstories and I still have not read them all,
but so far they were all very good and som I may tell one day.
The reason of my curiosity is because I am doing a project on
faeries and I needed a short story to put inthe speech, but
there were so many I couldn't choose. Thanks
This is a wonderful site. It's rare to come across a page with so much substance. Thank you.
What a great idea and what a great execution of that same
idea!!!
Wonderful wonderful wonderful!!
Darn cool too....
See ya in the Dreaming!
Esta es la más asombrosa recopilación de libros y datos en
este tema de lo faérico; realmente felisito y doy gracias a
todos aquellos que hicieron posible esto.
Great page! Wonderful links.
I thought it beautiful. It wa a refereshing change to see images from a time gone by. I am conducting desk research for a fairy product and this site has really brightened up my Monday morning. Thank you and keep up the good work.

i loved it...it's great...!
why don't you provide us pple who like to read with
some info on
who are the good fantasy writers
and their books eg terry prachett...
Am new to the Web and trying to find out, after having seen "Fairy Tale" if Arthur Conan Doyle actually did write a book on fairies. Checked the book stores -- no luck. Can't get on to the home page (is that the term) for the film for some reason. Also, I'd like to know more about the Cottingly photos and story. Last bit -- does anyone have access to a fairy calendar done in the late 60s, early 70s by Bill and Lynn Teeple. I've tried for a long time to find one. Thanks! P.S. Enjoyed the page. Thanks for the fantastical info.
I noticed that you have no mention of Nymphs in your dictionary, is there a reason for this?
I am an elf and I have been looking through the net for web sites on faerie creatures, as yet, many of the sites I have found have been degrading and contain false information concerning my kind. I was pleased to discover that your site contained references to other texts and was not based solely on personal beliefs.
Hi,
I found your site while searching for online references
to Aarne and Thompson's Motif Index. I'm extremely
impressed by the amount of work, thought, and knowledge
in your pages. In the meantime, I'm still looking for
a searchable index. Would you happen to know if there
is an online motif index, or a project working to that
end?
Thank you,
Merrall Ll. Price
I LIKE FAERIES.
This site is SO cool! An excellent job!
So you found the shy-ish tirra lirra did you? I think that she
is a modern Australian fairy, don't you?
She is an contemporary manifestation of an eternal principle,
though she just emerged and showed herself, leaving me to
wonder and to think about the nature of her essence and her
possible antecedants.
I am more than pleased to meet you... Puck and Robin... and
I hope that we can get to know each other.
This page is great! I really enjoy mythology, and I love fairies
and also unicorns and dragons. Keep it up!
The elder races will return.
I think this page is an excellent tribute to faeries.
I have completly enjoyed it and hope to see additions.
My friend, Thistledown, says that we, humans, got it all wrong. She thinks the way we write about them, fairies, is really offending. Yet, she really liked this page. She thinks you are close to realising what they really are so she thanks you for efford.
this is wonderful
Do you know if the book that Sir Authur Conan Doyle wrote in the movie "Fairy Tale;a true story" is a real book. is it still in circulation? Watching the movie is like sitting in a puddle of magic. It is luxurious. Thanks.
Lovely page. Thank you. I am very interested in Fairies and Fairy Lore.
Un magnifico esfuerzo y una informacion preciosa.Gracias
This page was very helpful towards aidding me with my search of
fairy tales and folklores. Nevertheless, as a African American
I would love to see tales related to the heritage and culture.
Loved your page. I could not do it justice in only a few
words, I have been looking for this connection and will be
back often...
I am very impressed with the wonderful job you have done with both the research and creation of your site. I have not seen mention of Rev. Kirk of Aberfoyle very often, and think you have done a nice job of cross indexing his "Secret Commonwealth" with your search engine.
This is his actual experience/history that has been handed down through word of mouth and his little manuscript. Being the first person to translate the Psalms into Gaelic meter, renown by all as a man of honesty and good repute, he surely was not fibbing. I'm happy to see this data produced in such a convenient format.
Very nice-
This is really fantastic, and I'm only sorry I can't
spent more time looking around, or composing a more
coherent note.
I'm really glad to see someone else who appreciates
Ellen Kushner's _Thomas the Rhymer_.
You've done a bunch of great work and your page is extremely
helpful, given how difficult much of what you have up (e.g.
Kirk, Thomas od Ercledoune etc.) is to get even at a large research
university.
There's one thing I find a bit odd, though. You mention only
Sandman #19. Admittedly, that's the much-decorated issue, and
is the one most explicitly about the Good People, but I'd also
include all of _Season of Mists_..in fact, from that story
line on, Nuala and/or Cluracan figure fairly regularly in the series,
sometimes in important roles...and people need to see the Boggart
who appears somewhere in the 60's! I think Neil Gaiman has a
real bead on what's going on on the other side of the Veil,
right up there with Elen Kushner, and lucky for us he's still writing
about it.
For all I know you have made the conscious decision *not* to
include issues other than #19, but if you'd like a rundown of
what other issues feature the Fae, please just let me know.
Oh, and be sure and keep your eye out for Gaiman's _Stardust_,
due out any minute.
BTW, my email account just became defunct and this is my
husbands, so please mark any reply as being "for Angel".
Blessed Be,
Angelique Gulermovich Epstein
I'm really facinated from your Fairy-page.
I surved a long time trough the net, searching for a Page like yours, now I've found it,
thank you
Thanks for the help, it's very interesting - I,ve
now got loads of great information for my college work!
Be back soon!
thanks for creating such a terrific resource. i am listing
your site on my sprites' site web (modifications in progress)
which follows my serendipity b
I love faeries and the legends that go along with them. I think this page is great! I commend whoever did it.

I saw the commercial for the movie based on the Cottingley
faeries, but was confused. I thought that the two young ladies involved admitted to a hoax in their old age. And having seen the pictures myself (in a book) I have to admit they appear to be rather crude cut-outs photographed in various scenarios. The photos are clearly the work of vividly creative imaginations, which could explain their power to captivate Victorian society. Ian McDonald's treatment of the story is the best I've run across, and I naively hope his was the basis for the film. This is a very enjoyable and informative website... keep up the good work! SLAINTE!
thank you for a beautiful and helpful site, we homeschool, and do so by theme, when I learned there was to be a film about fairies, I thought it would be a great literature unit to do, I have had a terible time finding fairie material until I found your site, most of the books I found were really folk tales, thank you again, I am sure your dear father is very proud of you, my condolences, julienne
I have been searching for a Faerie Lore page for a long time.I have found a few, but none has compared to this wonderful and informative view of Faeries. I believe the Lore and stories
are very important to pass on because of the fading belief in magic. I have always loved Faeries and I believe that magic still lives in the world today, we just have to find it. I do not have a faerie name, but I still feel that I contain a Faerie heart. Thankyou again for sending a little magic my way.
Your friend,
*~Dark Angel~*
What an absolutly brilliant page!
I just recently started acknowledging my Irish ancestry and it
has proved to be rewarding and most interesting. Unfortunatly, I do
not have a faerie name :( But none-the-less, Irish folklore is
most fascinating, your page depicts its wonders and compliments
its creativity. Wonderful work :)
