76 - "Light in the Shadows" - Celtic Fairies

September 29, 2021 • Talea Studios • Episode 76

We’ve grown up hearing about Fairies, popularized by a certain Tinker Bell who is small and sassy. Fairies have largely been commercialized, gracing children’s books, postcards, figurines, and shows. But who are the Fairies? They take many forms throughout the Celtic lands of Ireland, Scotland, The Isle of Man, Wales, Cornwall, and Brittany. There are legends and stories, beliefs, that are shared and different. Tales that haunt and tales that warn. Join Steven and Sarah as they talk about all things fairies, creating a story, and getting caught up with the lore and mystery about these secret fiends. The book referenced in the podcast is “The Fairy-Faith in Celtic Countries” by W.Y. Evans-Wentz, who traveled the Celtic lands in the early 1900’s gathering testimonies and first hand accounts.
