They said they didn't want to admit they had faked them because it would make Conan Doyle look foolish.Another ViewOne day when I was at home I saw these sparkling lights flying all over my back yard, but they weren't fireflies because fire flies don't glow a pinkish red glow and FIREFLIES DON'T HAVE HUMAN FACES so that proves they are real!Another ViewBelief in fairies harms no one, not even the believer.
