For generations, people in rural Thailand have told stories of the Krasue, a woman whose head leaves her body after dark with her internal organs hanging beneath it as she travels in search of blood, carrion and filth. Strange red, green and orange lights seen moving above fields have repeatedly been linked to the creature, and remarkably, alleged sightings continue today, with reports from Ratchaburi and Lopburi in 2023, Surin and Buriram in 2024, and Phetchabun as recently as February 2026.

In this special episode, I'm joined by writer and screenwriter Thom Burgess for a chat about ghost stories, folklore and a lifelong fascination with the supernatural.

Thom talks about growing up surrounded by the ghostlore of Kent, from the phantom bride of Bluebell Hill to the stories that first frightened and fascinated him as a child, and how that interest eventually found its way into his own writing and the Paramount horror film Passenger.

Along the way, we get into M. R. James, haunted pubs, phantom hitchhikers, the strange ways folklore has moved online and, inevitably, those deeply unsettling Cat in the Hat videos. Thom also shares a couple of his own unexplained experiences, including a very strange night in a Seattle hotel.

We also talk about City of Ghosts: The Canterbury Ghost Story Festival, taking place in Canterbury on 3 October, which brings together more than 300 years of ghost stories, folklore, literature, film and the supernatural.

Links to the festival, tickets and Thom’s work can be found below:

Take care everyone and I'll catch you again tomorrow.

In 1710, strange disturbances began inside Knowehead House on the Islandmagee peninsula in County Antrim. Stones appeared from nowhere, bedclothes were arranged into the shape of corpses, and a ragged childlike figure was seen moving through the house before apparently predicting the death of its elderly resident, Ann Haltridge. After Ann died, eighteen-year-old Mary Dunbar arrived and soon began suffering violent fits, claiming invisible women were attacking her and producing pins, feathers and other objects from her mouth. Her accusations eventually sent eight women to prison for witchcraft and drew a ninth person into a case that became Ireland’s last major witch trial.

On 15 September 1875, seventy-nine-year-old Ann Tennant left her home in the Warwickshire village of Long Compton to buy a loaf of bread. Minutes later she was attacked by agricultural labourer James Haywood, a neighbour who had become convinced that Ann and a number of other villagers were witches. His extraordinary claims would follow him from the harvest fields of Long Compton to the courtroom at Warwick and eventually to Broadmoor.

As summer wanes and the nights grow long, we turn to tales of witches, curses, and the old ways that never truly died. For centuries, harvest time has carried its own magic: charms for fields, blessings for homes, and darker stories of those who bent nature to their will.

Season of the Witch – Archive Note:

As part of this year’s Season of the Witch, we’re bringing our two-part Charles Walton case back into the feed. Charles Walton’s story connects with some of the new cases we’re covering this season, so we thought it was the perfect time to revisit it.

Patreon and Apple subscribers can listen to Charles Walton Parts One & Two and our new Ann Tennant episode now. For everyone else, Charles Walton Parts One & Two will be released on Friday and Saturday, followed by Ann Tennant on Sunday.

The Charles Walton episodes were originally released around 14 months ago and have been refreshed with our current music.

As summer wanes and the nights grow long, we turn to tales of witches, curses, and the old ways that never truly died. For centuries, harvest time has carried its own magic: charms for fields, blessings for homes, and darker stories of those who bent nature to their will.
