I’m Choosing to Believe in Fairy Doors

Recently, tiny mysterious doors have started appearing around San Francisco. They are too small for people to fit through, and they lead to nowhere, so the only reasonable conclusion is that they are fairy portals.

And yes, an artist has come forward to say that he’s installing them as part of a project, but people on the internet are still choosing to call them ‘fairy doors’ because it’s an objectively good name.

It also turns out there’s another person in Ann Arbor, Michigan who has been anonymously creating tiny fairy doors since 2005, and a fan maintains a site dedicated to keeping track of them all. While it’s entirely possible that these artists are either: a) the same person, or b) a copycat situation, I prefer to think that there are two separate humans out there right now building mini entryways and planting them around their cities in complete ignorance of one another.

And then one day they will meet on the subway and a black hole will form. And fairies will come out of it.
