Siôn from Gwynedd, North West Wales shares some astonishing stories: A circle of beings appearing and reappearing, supernatural attack at a Crossroads, his childhood experience of a being seemingly impersonating his teddy, 'Pinky', his encounter a Green Wisp, the 'Egryn Lights' case and local 'Fairy Lakes' folklore. 🌟 Siôn is coming onto our Patreon members live zoom chat in July to speak to us in person.

Llyn Hafod y Llyn (The Lake of the Lake Lodge/Shelter!!) ‘Hafod’ is the word for a place on high land where the shepherds would stay in summer while tending their sheep. ( ‘Haf’=Summer ‘Fod’ = place/to be). Lastly, the story of the circle of beings that I was trying to remember actually happened in Westmeath, Ireland...It's in Dermot MacManus's The Middle Kingdom. It is set at Clonmillan Hill. The circle of beings move in a similar way to that reported by Siôn. In addition, just like report from NW Wales, this area was also known to be connected with Otherworldly experiences. The description of bagpipes suggest music may have also played an element.
