You all must have read those famous fantasy novels, especially Harry Potter. But have you ever really believed in such things? Yes, you guess it right! I am not actually crazy to be asking you if you believe that there is another land beside humans where magicians or fairies reside. As a child, the enticing novels by Enid Blyton may have made you believe that there is something like that, but do you believe in it even now???Yes, I can see most of you nodding your head in a negative reply and raising an eyebrow asking me, "why this question, eh?" Okay! Not keeping much of a secret, I will tell you all. The reason is that I recently read that the famous mystery writer who created a furore by killing Sherlock Holmes in his novel and reinventing him again, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle actually believed in fairies!
Wow! A startling news, is it not? Now, whoever must have thought that such a writer or thrilling blood curdling mysteries would actually believe in those exotic, alluring fairies? So, time to change your opinion too.....

You might be interested in the film, Fairy Tale: A True Story, which tells the story and shows Conan Doyle's involvement.
There's also Photographing Fairies which covers the same events. Interestingly both were made in 1997. A good year for films about fairies I guess.

He was Scottish and born in the 19th century, so I can see it. I wouldn't rule out fairies absolutely, anyway. We can't hope to ever know everything about our world.
