The Cottingley Fairies appear in a series of five photographs taken by Elsie Wright and Frances Griffiths, two young cousins who lived in Cottingley, near Bradford in England. In 1917, when the first two photographs were taken, Elsie was 16 years old and Frances was 10. Public reaction was mixed; some accepted that the images were genuine, but others believed they had been faked. In the early 1980s, both girls admitted that the photographs were faked using cardboard cutouts of fairies copied from a popular children's book of the time. Yet Frances continued to claim that the fifth and final photograph was genuine.
So do u believe fairies are real ? I'm not quite sure but i would like to think that they are :)
