"Still, few people seriously believe in them any longer."
I understand that in Iceland the belief is so prevalent that the location of faery habitations and activities are taken into consideration when building roads, buildings and such. The public officials treat evidence of faeries in much the same way our authorities respond when Indian artifacts or slave burials are turned up at a construction site.
I would guess that the belief comes from the Norse culture, which still prevails in Iceland, the Outer Hebrides, and the Faeroes.

"And what a joy, is in the complete abandon of [the fairies'] little graceful figures as they let themselves go in the dance! They may have their shadows and trials [but] there is a great gladness manifest in this demonstration of their life."--Sir Arthur "Fairie" Conan Doyle

I used to have a (straightarrow) business associate in San Francisco...his name was Bruce Fairey.
Any wonder why I'd refer to him as "The tragically named one"?

The word is, technically, "faeries."

much of the lore involving this variety coincides with much of Lapp culture, down to the dress and houses. Would not be so sensational but is plausible.

My Renfest has a Fairy Godfather. (My hand to God, I am not making this up.) He's really a sweet guy.
