It has been recently hypothesised that many of the alien and UFO
sighings that are being constantly reported, are actually sightings of
faeries. There are some striking similarities between the two types of
sightings that seem to lend creadence to this theory. First, the
descriptions of the "aliens" are almost invariably of a creature
smaller than a man and very thin, with a large head and eyes, a lack
of body and facial hair, and often pointed ears, somtimes surrounded
by a bright light. This description shares many common features with
faeries, who are also smaller and thinner than humans and often
possess various mutations, such as enlarged ears, eyes or limbs, and a
complete lack or excess of hair. The glaymor of a faerie can easily
explain the abilities of aliens to appear and dissappear at will as
well as the ligh which often surrounds them. And instead of stealing
babies, as the faerie tricksters are likely
to do, the aliens abduct humans of all ages for various lengths of
time. Connections can even be made between the faerie rings of old and
the strange crop circles that appear (first dicovered in
England...). A hovering alien spaceship moving in ways that nothing
made by a human engineer could, are nearly identicle to the will-o-wisp
which would lead unwary travelers into the moors.
The similarities seem to be too numerous to be a coincidence. It
seems quite likely that faeries and aliens are one and the same; as
our culture had advanced into the space age, so has our view of those
who lurk in the shadows. Science has tried to rationalize the myths,
but they still remain.
