Leicester is famous for many things; it’s football club… cheese… OK that’s pretty much it. But what about HUMAN SACRIFICE? It sounds far-fetched and yet like much of ancient Britain the land was once ruled by pagans, many of whom practiced a druidic religion which may have involved human sacrifice. Some say it’s because of that ancient history that Leicester’s Humber Stone has come to be cursed. Ghost sightings, spontaneous combustion, and possession have all been reported in this small region of Leicestershire. What is going on? And is it paranormal? It’s time for Rory and Kit to find out.
