Are there fairies in the world? What kind of scam did the two little girls create, and Sherlock Holmes was also fooled?

I think it is impossible for fairies to exist in this world, so these two little girls are just using a visual trick. As for the famous creator of Sherlock Holmes-Arthur Conan Doyle Jazz was deceived only because of his blind trust in spiritualism at that time.

The origin of the scam

In 1917, two young girls took their own cameras to play by the creek and in the woods behind the house. They took photos while playing I took some photos and brought them home some time later. When their parents developed the photo, they were shocked because there were some winged elves in the picture. Some elves were playing happily around them, and the two girls' faces were very natural, and they did not seem to be afraid of seeing these unknown creatures, so they gave the photos to the local sect and made them public.

Confirmation of the scam

When this matter was first made public, many people also judged these photos with disbelief, so they took away the negatives of these photos identification. In the end, the famous British photography expert at the time concluded that the negatives were completely authentic and that these photos had not been modified in any way. As a result, the photos were widely circulated, and eventually even Sherlock Holmes' creator believed them to be true.

The scam revealed

Although these photos have been widely circulated, some people still maintain a controversial attitude towards these photos. They even interviewed the two sisters many times and asked the two sisters to shoot again, but the answer they gave was: these elves would not appear if there were others around. This was undoubtedly a very big loophole. In the end, it was revealed in their later years that these elves were actually realistic cardboard. The characters were then photographed, so they looked very real.
