  • Loremen S5Ep52 - The Grey Hitchhiker

    Loremen S5Ep52 - The Grey Hitchhiker
    Oct 3 2024
    The terrifying tale of the Grey Hitchhiker (or the Gray Hitcher, for Americans) comes from that spooky road, The Notorious A38. Over several decades, drivers have made the mistake of stopping for a hitchhiker who does not obey the laws of hitchhiking (or nature). If you're driving between Tiverton and Taunton, you might see the Grey Hitchhiker. If you've reached Wrangway, you're going the wrong way. Listener, it's time to "get your gilets on" because your spine is about to be tingled.

  • Loremen S5Ep51 - Haunting Houses

    Loremen S5Ep51 - Haunting Houses
    Sep 26 2024
    The Loremen encounter what might be the biggest ghost in the history of the podcast. We're talking about a house that is a ghost. (Pretty big, right?) James takes Alasdair to the South West of England to view a property that's just come on the market and could vanish at any moment. Could this phantom maison be an echo of The Anarchy from the reign of King Stephen? Or do lone walkers on the moor go a bit funny sometimes? Enjoy this week's tales, drawn from the writing of Janet & Colin Bord and Christ in a hole! It's... Christina Hole.

  • Loremen S5Ep50 - The Poltergeist of Moreton

    Loremen S5Ep50 - The Poltergeist of Moreton
    Sep 19 2024
    The boys are back, with yet more tales of Moreton lore! This time James visits South Moreton in Oxfordshire, for the outrageous story of a faux-poltergeist (fauxtergeist?). But don't fret, folklore fans - the village of South Moreton boasts enough "real" ghosts to spook the horses. Plus, a deadly locomotive and a very misleading prophecy.

    Loremen S5Ep49 - The Great Chislehurst Cave Mystery
    Sep 12 2024
    Who's that, beckoning to you from the mouth of a weird looking cave? Why it's Alasdair Beckett-King of course! Join him and James Shakeshaft, and enter a subterranean labyrinth hidden beneath a leafy London borough. In 1907, The Illustrated London News called it The Great Chislehurst Cave Mystery: 22 miles of hand-carved tunnels, with stories of smugglers, druids, and rock and roll legends. Come for the haunted pool, stay for the possessed tour guide. (Tour guy.)

    Loremen S5Ep47 - The Treasure in the Tower LIVE Part 1
    Sep 5 2024
    What connects a traitor, a Sandwich and a mushroom farmer from Kent? It's the lost treasure of 'Invisible' John Barkstead, which is buried somewhere underneath the Tower of London. Although there are those who say ... it isn't. In Part 1 of this LIVE episode, we meet a regicidal bum bailiff, Alasdair unearths the TRUTH™ about the death of Oliver Cromwell and James is ravin' about ravens.

    Loremen S5Ep46 - Gunter and The Witches
    Aug 29 2024
    James talks Alasdair through the case of Anne Gunter's demonic possession... or was it all an elaborate hoax with lashings of wee wee? It's time for more Moreton! We're not talking Eleanor Morton, here. And We're not talking Moreton-in-Marsh either. This week's tale comes from North Moreton, and from from Mike White's book The Veiled Vale: Strange Tales from South Oxfordshire. Join us for this 17th century tale of murder, revenge and urine-bothering witch-hunters. Is that several pins coming out of your mouth, or are you just pleased to see us?
