Heed the call of the weird, where ancient folklore meets modern fear. Dive into the eerie, the unsettling, and the spine-tingling world of Folk Horror stories told by the exceedingly fine Laura Sampson and Daniel Morden.
Lonely forests, foolhardy pacts, shapeshifters, unquiet graves, and ominous prophecies - the folk and fairytales of our ancestors are bound with the traces of old superstition, twisted ritual, cult, curses and archaic customs.
These stories tap into forgotten fears that never stay buried - leaving you questioning what’s lurking just beyond the edge of your reality. It’s not about whether something’s out there, it’s about when it’s going to find you.
Are you ready to face the darkness? Don't expect happily ever after!
