Hello all, and welcome to Episode 24, which is also the first episode of Season/Year 2.

The podcast starts with the tales of revenants described by the 12th century Augustinian Canon William Parvus, with stories that eventually became the tales we now know as the Vampires of Berwick, Melrose, Alnwick/Annan Castle and Buckingham. This episode's 'from the archives' then looks at an article of a ghostly encounter... or not... related in 1790 in the Caledonian Mercury, before then moving onto the episode's second story, that of some ghostly/witchery encounters in Mallerstang before finishing with some Easter traditions as recorded by William Henderson in 1879.
