I believe it is actually gnomes that or elves that are protected/believed in. However, I suppose one could argue that they are different versions of the same thing. I remember seeing a Destination Truth episode where they were searching for gnomes in Iceland, but of course they didn't find anything.

In northern Europe and a part of the BeNeLux there are still many myths and legends and children bed time stories especially.

Yes. However what is intriguing to me is that they apparently are still alive. They only seem to appear at night, most sightings are with good moon light.
They see both small and long creatures; from 50 centimeters to 4 meters (twice a person roughly).

However it might be gnomes and trolls being confused. So I really like seeing sketches from eye witnesses and such but they are hard to find.
