Do you think they are good? Such as Tinker Bell in Peter Pan. Or do you think they are evil little creatures that bite you when you aren't looking? Such as in Labyrinth. What do you really think about these mythical beings of folklore. In folklore, they are one of a variety of supernatural beings having magical powers. Belief in fairies has existed from earliest times, but the concept and description of the creatures varies widely, from the tiny old men, or leprechauns, of Irish legend, to beautiful enchantresses. Particular kinds of fairies include the Arabic jinni, the Scandinavian troll, the Germanic elf, and the English pixie. Although usually represented as mischievous and capricious, they could also be loving and bountiful. Among the great adapters of popular fairy tales were Charles Perrault, the brothers Grimm, and Hans Christian Anderson.
