    52: Giants

    This time we've an appropriately huge episode of tales about British Giants - all stuck together with a vague framing narrative involving the surprising return of one of the podcasts greatest villains/misunderstood just getting on with his life dudes to date. On the way we'll take in tiny elephants, wulvers, a mermaid, simps, cobblers, tall tales, unfortunate seagulls and slave driving saints in an episode suitably scaled for the topic.

    51: Boggart discussion with Dr. Simon Young

    A very special episode - the podcast's first ever expert discussion section! An interview with the world's leading boggart expert Dr Simon Young answering questions like what are boggarts, where would you find them, why do they look nothing like what we think of as Boggarts today?Followed by a very short story section about a boggart that isn't really a boggart. Just to round things off.Sources, musical credits and boggart artwork on the website https://talesofbritainandireland.com/episode-50-boggarts/   #Folklore #Mythology

    50: Boggarts

    The 50th episode! A huge milestone for me and I'm using it to concentrate on one of my favourite topics I've only touched on so far: Boggarts.  Boggarts abound in this selection of accounts featuring a surprising variety of supernatural sights - shrieking spectres, ghostly geese, inflatable sheep, ineffective graves and much much more.  Come to Boggartdom, meet the feeorin and found out more synonyms for terror than you ever thought you'd need! Sources, musical credits and boggart artwork on the website https://talesofbritainandireland.com/episode-50-boggarts/#folklore #storytelling

    47: The Witch of Eagle’s Crag

    This episode we have a tale featuring Lancashire Witches, phenomenal cosmic power, a sort of gap year/nature documentary, an unexpected promotion and a story mash up that almost works if you squint, coming from the pen of Lancashire folklore's most unreliable narrator,  For musical credits, sources and more visit the website: https://talesofbritainandireland.com/episode-47-the-witch-of-eagles-crag/ #Myths #Legends #Folklore #Witches #Lacanshirefolklore
