* Apologies: The first time we uploaded this episode, it was the UNEDITED version 😱 we are mortified! It was full of our "ums", brain farts and interruptions from kids. This is now the polished version we meant to give you...

It's Halloween Week!... and what better way to get in the mood than listening to us two nerds try and spook you out.

It's so hot in Essex...and for some reason we thought we would cool down by looking into fiery folk tales...it did not help.

But we enjoyed, as ever, delving into the county's rich history.

In this captivating episode, we embark on a fascinating journey through the heart of Essex, leaving no branch unturned as we unearth enchanting tales of trees and their hidden stories. Joining us on this adventure is Dr. James Canton from the University of Essex.

As the Director of Wild Writing at the university, James has been at the forefront of exploring the relationship between literature, landscape, and the environment since launching the MA Wild Writing program in 2009. A true storyteller, he brings his expertise to life through his acclaimed books, including *Out of Essex: Re-Imagining a Literary Landscape* (2013), which draws inspiration from his rural wanderings across our beloved county. He also delves into the depths of time with *Ancient Wonderings: Journeys into Prehistoric Britain* (2017), where he shares remarkable tales that weave together the lives of those who walked the land long before us.

Join us as we traverse the paths of Essex, guided by James’s passionate insights, and discover the intricate connections between our environment and its timeless narratives!

Our latest episode whisks you away on a supernatural journey through the haunting legends and eerie traditions of East Anglia. We start at the East Anglian Folklore Centre in Colchester, unraveling the rich history of Halloween customs, like the flower-adorned graves in Witham and the mesmerising divination rituals that once defined All Hallows' Eve. Discover how commercialism has morphed these once somber traditions of remembrance into today’s festive spectacle.
