Tales From the Otherwood
The Boggart and The Farmer
In this Northamptonshire tale, a poor farmer starts working on his small plot of land only to find it is haunted by a menacing and ugly boggart.... will the farmer be driven away? Or does he have what it takes to deal with the supernatural forces that have presented themselves?
This episode's chat talks about the difference between brownies, bogles and boggarts as well as some ancient harvest rituals.
Also, one of my cats makes a guest appearance, so be sure to listen out!
