From the stately Windsor forest to Scotland’s mist shrouded lochs and streams; from dark and dank Welsh coal mines to barren sandstone hills in Leicestershire, we will explore stories that embody our troubled relationship with our own physical vulnerability - with winter, unknown spiritual forces, with the strains and dangers of manual labour, with geological forces and -ultimately - with the inevitability of death itself.

S01 Episode 5: Land of the Dead, Part 1

This podcast is a storytelling journey through world-folklore. With brief context and analysis in the introductions, the main focus is the retelling of stories themselves. 
From saucer-eyed spectral dogs to pond-scum haunting child-eating witches - experience the darker side of Britain's folklore in Series 1. Then journey to central and eastern Europe to the world of Slavic folklore, home of Baba Yaga and lurking nature spirits (Series 2). From there, step into the vast world of Nordic Folklore, where creatures abound in the woodlands, mountains and fjords of beautiful northern climes. Look out a series called 'Earth Lore' this autumn/winter to celebrate the natural world and a series on Japanese and Korean folklore next spring.
