Fairies have their fair share in Greek folk tradition.People especially in small villages still believe in them.According to a researcher there over 200 villages in Greece named after fairies(Neraida is the greek word).

The most common story is if a man steal her headkerchief he can marry her,but the moment she finds it she disappears.There are numerous stories about men marring fairies and even have children with them.

Another one is in the nights when fairies dance in the woods mortals can watch them but if the fairies talk to them they mustn't answer back because they will lose their voice or lose their mind(depends on the encounter).A darker vesrsion of the fairies is stealing newborn babies to raise as their own or abduct young men to mate with them.

The closest i have come to fairy(if it was a fairy) is when i visited ancient Olympia and the locals warned me not to go in the river at night because fairies dance there and when they are disturbed by mortals they turn them into stone.I did go of course but there was nothing there.
The next night me and my friends we had a very weird encounter, in the camping were we stayed, with a very tall being,couldn't tell if it was male or female because it was wearing a hood.It was sitting watching us and then it disappeared into thin air.We started searching around but found nothing.Until we left a few days later every night strange things happened.Strong air was blowing every time we went near the river and then stopped,luminous shadows among the trees in the forest watching us and a continuous feeling of terror with no apparent reason.

I had never heard of faerie forts before. Are these natural indentations, like an old meteor/comet impact site? In the U.S. there aren't many traditions around faeries.


here try this Native American Indians and fairys
