S2E1 Jack Frost, Snow Faes and Winter Ghosts


Listen Later


Jack Frost is a personification of winter’s chill in Northern European and later American folklore. He’s not tied to a single mythological tradition but emerges from old tales of frost sprites and winter spirits.,Often shown as a mischievous young man or sprite who paints frost on windows, nips noses and toes, and brings crisp cold air. In Victorian-era poetry and 19th-century children’s stories, he became a playful trickster. In European folklore, fairies (or fae) are nature spirits tied to seasons. Winter fairies embody frost, snow, and the hush of the cold months. They’re usually described as delicate, icy-winged beings who dance on snowflakes, freeze dewdrops, or guard the quiet of winter woods. Anne Boleyn was Henry VIII’s second wife and the mother of Queen Elizabeth I. She was executed at the Tower of London in 1536 on charges of treason and adultery.
