SEASON OF THE WITCH: Pendle Hill | Witch Trials & Restless Spirits | Haunted Places

from The Whispering Woods : Real Life Ghost & Paranormal Stories

As summer wanes and the nights grow long, we turn to tales of witches, curses, and the old ways that never truly died. For centuries, harvest time has carried its own magic: charms for fields, blessings for homes, and darker stories of those who bent nature to their will.On the brooding slopes of Pendle Hill, the 1612 witch trials cast a shadow that hasn’t lifted: matriarchs Old Demdike and Chattox, ten hangings at Lancaster, and a land still whispered to be guarded by familiars and phantoms. From a bricked-in “witches’ cat” cottage to spectral hounds, disembodied voices, and dancing orbs, modern vigil nights keep colliding with the hill’s grim past—some say the witches still answer when called.The BOOKBY US A COFFEEJoin Sarah's new FACEBOOK GROUPSubscribe to our PATREONEMAIL us your storiesFollow us on YOUTUBEJoin us on INSTAGRAMJoin us on TWITTERJoin us on FACEBOOKVisit our WEBSITEResearch:https://www.heritagedaily.com/2021/10/some-of-the-most-haunted-places-in-england/141752https://www.hauntedrooms.co.uk/pendle-hill-witcheshttps://www.spiritshack.co.uk/blog/haunted-places/pendle-hill/https://deadlive.co.uk/pendle-hill-lancashire-ghost-stories/https://lellalee.com/the-ghosts-of-pendle-hill-a-paranormal-investigation/http://marysharratt.blogspot.com/2009/10/most-haunteds-pendle-witch-hunt.htmlThanks so much for listening, and we'll catch up with you again on Monday!Sarah and Tobie xx"Spacial Winds" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/SURVEY Hosted on Acast.
