We’re on a break at the moment, researching and writing our sixth series, but, to fill the gap, this is the last of six new compilation episodes containing a trio of stories from across our earlier series.

We’ve entitled this episode Three Watery Graves, for reasons which will quickly become apparent, if they aren’t already. Each is also a ghost story, so if you’re in the mood for that sort of thing then you’ve come up trumps with this one!

They include our second-lap Westmoreland story, The Somnambulist, and our second lap story from neighbouring Cumberland, The Last Touch, and our recent Cheshire story, The Cursed Fisherman of Hoylake, so we hope you’ve brought your waders.

We really hope you enjoy them, if you're a Patreon supporter then we'll speak to you again on Thursday for our Film Club episode about 2017's The Ritual before our monthly newsletter for March comes out on Saturday.

Then though, we'll be back next Monday for our first episode of Series 6!

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?
