- **Event Description**: The Annual Mordechai Katz Lecture 
Featuring guest : author - SARAH CLEGG

As part of this year’s Whitby Krampus Run festivities, we are delighted to welcome Sarah Clegg, historian, storyteller, and author of the acclaimed Women’s Lore: 4,000 Years of Sirens, Serpents and Succubi and the haunting The Dead of Winter.
 
Sarah’s work journeys deep into the shadowlands of myth and history. Women’s Lore uncovers powerful female figures who have haunted human imagination for millennia, from Mesopotamian demons and spectral mothers to sirens and succubi, while The Dead of Winter explores the human stories and ancient beliefs entwined with death, darkness, and the turning of the year.
 
Her talk will weave these themes together, shining a light on the myths that rise in midwinter and revealing how their echoes still resound through seasonal traditions like the Krampuslauf. Combining scholarship with vivid storytelling, Sarah brings ancient voices to life and reminds us why the coldest season has always belonged to spirits, monsters, and the strange power of story. 

Sarah’s book ‘The Dead of Winter’ has been serialised for BBC RADIO 4 as ‘Book of the Week’ and is now just been published in paperback.
