fairy folk
Magical woodland beings
Fairy folk is a collective term for fairies and similar mythical beings—sprites, pixies, brownies, and other supernatural creatures of folklore.
The phrase has an old-fashioned, respectful tone, as if naming them directly might cause offense: The villagers left offerings for the fairy folk.
Sometimes used whimsically for any small, magical creatures in fiction or imagination.
