Creepy ‘Gnome’ Terrorises Town
The inhabitants of an Argentinian town claim a strange creature roams their streets at night. Several sightings have occurred of the creepy ‘gnome’, who has a pointed hat and a peculiar sideways walk. It has even been caught on film by a group of teenagers. Jose Alvarez, who filmed the gnome, said “This is no joke. We are still afraid to go out - just like everyone else in the neighbourhood now. One of my friends was so scared after seeing that thing that we had to take him to the hospital.”

Valerie Trezise of The Faerie Way lives by the waters edge near Bath in the Southwest of England. The self-taught artist has been creating Faeries for many years, greatly inspired by the cycles of nature and the fae spirits around her home and encountered on her many travels. Valerie’s dolls are soft bodied, with either hand sculpted clay or cloth stitched faces, and clothes made from colourful recycled fabrics and natural materials. All of the them are completely one off and uniquely hand made.

The second issue of French language magazine Fées Divers came out late last year, with the theme of urban Faeries. The cover is by Mélanie Delon, who is also featured in the magazine, along with art by Natalia Pierandrei, poetry by Jane Yolen, music from Omnia and much more. The magazine covers art, literature, folklore, music and news. Unfortunately it is only available in France, but here’s hoping they expand their distribution soon!
