We’re on a break at the moment to plan, research, and write all sorts of things, but, to fill the gap, this is the second of two new compilation episodes containing a trio of stories from across our earlier series.
We have entitled this episode “Three Morality Tales” as this clutch – well, they aren’t all straight allegories, but they do engage with ideas of right and wrong, and that funny, liminal band between them: the infamous ‘Grey Area’ where the rules of life get a little bit squirly.
They are our second-lap Staffordshire story, The Mermaid of the Black Mere of Morridge, our recent Hertfordshire story, The Wicked Lady, and our Series 6 finale story from Norfolk, The Pedlar of Swaffham.
We really hope you enjoy them, and will be back on Monday with our next Lang Fairy Tale!
The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.
Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...
Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.
With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?
