These are all stories I’ve told for many years, mainly to groups sitting around a campfire. Just like when they’re told around the campfire, the stories aren’t scripted. They’re told from memory, or made up as I go along, or sometimes a bit of both. I hope you enjoy them.
What was the grisly discovery made at The Grange in the early 1800s? How did a restless spirit come to be bricked in? A tragic tale, with a happier ending than you might expect!
Are two centuries of unexplained disappearances caused by a ghostly press gang?
In the 1970s a local man had an encounter with a strange creature late at night. What was it and where did it come from?
A mysterious story about a ghostly army that is heard at key times in history. Who were they? Where did they come from, and why do they March?
I've experienced a few things that can't be fully explained. Were they ghosts?
The path from the village to the sea was used by smugglers to land their contraband. But is it haunted by the ghost of a smuggler who was killed there one night over 200 years ago?
History has a way of repeating itself. Why does the sound of a tragic event from World War Two still replay in the cold darkness of the night every November?
Find out more about the church in the village and most importantly, the mirror that hangs inside it. Washed up following a shipwreck in 1786, it was looked in for the first time in the 1970s. But did the boy who looked into it see his own reflection, or something else? As always, this isn't written down, but told from memory.
Episode 1: Shipwreck. These are stories I have told for years to groups gathered round a campfire as darkness starts to fall. They're not written down, but spoken from memory. Some of the events are real, some aren't. You'll have to make up your minds which are which... This is my first ever podcast and it's a bit of an experiment. Episode 2 will be uploaded at the weekend...
