The Isle of Wight is known for many strange tales.
Isle of Wight? As I recall from game of Thrones, "wights" are sort of undead zombies...
A Wail? Like the Mexican la Llorona? Or an Irish Bhean-sidhe?
Out from under a bridge? Like a troll?
"I am all colors" - even the ones we can't see? Hmm?
"Fay" and her father both having encounters - I have read that some families tend to have these experiences run in the family, used as evidence to support the notion that genetic experimentation is going on, running through generations of the same families.
I am reminded by this of the "creepy clown hysteria" we had here about 4 or 5 years ago, where people were claiming to see creepy clowns everywhere.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
