Tales From the Otherwood
The Fairy Supper
In this Derbyshire set tale, a minister from Ashbourne makes his journey to carry on the Lord's Work despite the setbacks that have already presented themselves.
Seeking shelter in a dilapidated house, the minister finds not all the residents are of this world....
This month's chat discusses not only fairy lore in Derbyshire, but as the story takes place on the last day of October, we also discuss Derbyshire customs on and around Halloween!
Yes, it is a bit strange discussing Halloween in July, but hey, who doesn't enjoy Halloween!?
