Skeptics are welcome, but it would be nice to meet people with an honest belief or passion for folklore/faeries. This is not a spiritual group seeking "nature spirits" for healing or anything of the like, simply a club for the curious and possibly adventurous. This is leaning towards a social group rather than a seri …

Calling all you book lovers of the dark and macabre! Or light and fluffy, meh my tastes change! I love all books other than perhaps about war and politics. I will however give a book a shot if someone really really wants to read it as a group and discuss it. I can't promise to like it, but I'll try. But that goes both ways. Book clubs in my opinion are ment to find books you wouldn't otherwise have found on your own. There could be a whole other magical awesome world you didn't know about just a …

We want to blow-our-minds and we challenge the libraries of the world to challenge u …
