On this episode, we explore one of the most enduring and unsettling legends in Britishfolklore: the Black Dog Phenomena.

These spectral hounds are typically described as rather large, jet-black dogs with glowing eyes, often appearing on remote roads, misty moors, water courses and in ancient churchyards—often as harbingers of misfortune or death.

From Black Shuck in East Anglia to the Barghest of Yorkshire, and the many regionalvariations in between, accounts of these mysterious beasts have circulated forcenturies. Are they merely superstition, psychological phenomena, or somethingmore unexplained? On this episode, join me as I share some of thehistory and documented sightings of these haunting creatures. All of thesightings are odd but all have different endings.

On this episode, we’ll look at some of the more ghoulish happenings in Gloucestershire.The word ghoul- comes from ancient Arabic folklore, a desert demon said to lurk in graveyards, that robbed fresh graves, and devoured the dead. These were shape-shifting monsters that lured travellers to their doom. When the word crossed into English in the 18th century, “ghoul” kept its graveyard associations, and by the 19th century “ghoulish” emerged as the perfect adjective for anything that revels in the macabre: a fascination with death, disaster, or the grotesque.

Listen and watch as we step into the shadows of 2 unsettling tales, both of which, refuse to be left in the past. A cursed lead tablet found in a house but written before the house was even built and then to a named grave at a crossroads. It may be named but no one knows just who, or what, is buried there. Tales of witchcraft and a curse, all here in this episode I’ve called GhoulishGloucestershire.
