A. Sutherland – AncientPages.com - "On the Isle of Man, the prevailing belief was that the fairies represented the souls of those who died long ago, possibly before the Biblical flood, or were perhaps amongst the angels banished from heaven…" 1
As ghosts or spirits of the dead, these little people were sometimes called 'Middle World Men,' who weren't good enough for heaven or bad enough for hell but lived in a world of their own...
