I'm reading through my copy of X-files: Book of the unexplained, which basically compiles various real life cases of strange occurrences and such that are mentioned in the x files. And it talks about Arthur Conan Doyle and how he believed these faked photos of fairies made by two young girls were real and the Author of the book (Jane Goldman) added this note:
I usually just reference the line from season 1 episode 12 "Fire", where Phoebe says to Mulder:"Don't tell me you've forgotten... a certain youthful indiscretion, atop Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's tombstone, on a misty night in Windlesham", implying that they had sex on Arthur Conan Doyle's grave, as a joke about him being a bit of a freak (and goth but that's an argument for another post), but this makes me wonder if it was actually a kind of insane way to bring everything back to Mulder's blinding obsession with the truth. Or maybe I'm finally losing it
