Customer Reviews
Funny Faeries
Having been driven to distraction with my current studies into Celtic myth/legend/folklore it's so refreshing to hear some of my favourite characters/stories reborn to my ears. Next time I'm across in Ireland I'm definitely going to seek out a Tales from the Shadows performance! Keep it up for the rest of us slutty Catholic mermaids.
Fascinating folklore
Loving this podcast and its coverage of all things to do with folklore and storytelling. The hosts effortlessly and entertainingly cover a lot of ground regarding mythical creatures and the tales that have immortalised them. I’m hoping when and if they exhaust Ireland’s rich source material they will expand to cover other areas of the globe too!
