They say when the storm rolls in over the English coast, you can still hear its howl the ghostly hound with eyes like fire. The Black Shuck has haunted East Anglia for centuries, appearing as both omen and protector, devil and god.

In this episode, we trace the legend from the burning churches of 1577 to modern-day sightings on the misty roads of Suffolk. Was the Shuck a spirit of death, a guardian from the old gods, or just a shadow born from fear itself?

Turn down the lights… and listen for the footsteps behind you.
