In this episode of International Supernatural, Alana and Liam encounter some Freaky Fae. Alana introduces you to legendary tricksters, who roam the plains and rainforests of the Americas.  While Liam heads to the south-western tip of England to introduce everyone to the quaint folk creatures of Cornwall… which include the wonderfully named ‘Knockers’. Asides include: fear of tornadoes, "Well, Actually..." with Liam, bowing to sheep, and the estuary song…again.
