Read the passage below and answer the question:
In folklore, fairies are elusive creatures who have wings and the ability to appear and disappear quickly. In a surprising real-life event that took place in England, these magical beings were believed by many people to have been captured on film. In 1917, two young cousins named Elsie Wright and Frances Griffiths produced two photographs of themselves with figures that looked very much like storybook fairies. The photos generated a great deal of curiosity. In 1920, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, even wrote about the possibility that they might be real. Others were not convinced, and tried to discredit the genuineness of the photos. Finally, in a magazine article published in 1983, the cousins admitted that the "fairies" were really cardboard cutouts. The revocation of the story was not complete, however, since they left open the possibility that a fairy photo that they had taken later, in 1920, might be real.
