Today's episode was recorded live at the Whitby Hand of Glory Festival with the brilliant Chris Lambert.

Chris is the creator and haunted soul of the eerie and unsettling series of books, Tales From the Black Meadow.

So join us and perhaps, just perhaps, we can start to unravel the mystery of the strange disappearance of Roger Mullins in 1972. Who are the Children of the Black Meadow, will we ever hear the Rag and Bone man, and will we make it out with our senses in tact.

Expect Horsemen, fog houses and land spheres.

Enjoy!

Goodly day!

This time we are off on a Whitby wander to explore all things dark and gothic.

We trace the footsteps and literal haunts of one of its most infamous sons, Dracula, and set eyes upon an extraordinarily spooky artefact lurking in the depths of the Whitby museum!

Expect ancient curses, mourning rings, vampires, tales of seafarers and of course, fish and chips on the harbour.

Enjoy!

Eat, drink and be merry!

It's time to go a-wassailing, venerate the trees, scare away the dark spirits and celebrate all things apple.

We find ourselves in the lovely little village of Hartley Wintney for a traditional orchard wassail.

Expect Morris dancers, fire and seasonal village chats.

"It's in the trees! It's coming!"

Today we are heading to Waverley Abbey in Farnham Surrey for some dragon sightings and cryptid chat with the legendary Richard Freeman and Jackie Tonks.

Expect Scandinavian Vardoger or Forewalkers, Tulpa's, dragon sightings, goblin chat and as the fogs descend, do we detect the ghostly voices of children coming from the ruins?

Well, you'll just have to listen and find out won't you.

Come join us for some Mayday Mudlarking as we explore the Thames foreshore with mudlarker Ollie Dory on a beautiful spring morning.

Mainly due to the preserving anaerobic mud of the Thames, coupled with the fast flow and rapid tides of the old river. Extraordinary treasures can unearthed, you just have to know where to look for them.

Clay pipes, to medieval daggers, to mysterious fairy loaves from an even more ancient time, the Thames is the great memory store of the city.

Expect bone tides, bicycles and very wet socks.

Enjoy!
