About this reel
This video explores a fascinating historical hoax from 1917 where two young English cousins took photos that appeared to show fairies. Their images captivated the public, including renowned author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who believed in their authenticity despite skepticism from experts. The video details how decades later, the girls confessed to using paper cutouts but one cousin remained convinced of a real fairy sighting. It highlights how even the most logical minds can be swayed by magic and deception.
