The Tale of the Witch of Wookey Hole (English folklore)

Beneath the towering limestone cliffs of Somerset, in the verdant embrace of Wookey Hole, there echoes not just the drip of ancient underground rivers but also the whispers of legends long woven into the fabric of local lore. In the cool, damp air of the caves, we trace the story of the Witch of Wookey Hole, a woman whose life, intertwined with mystery and solitude, culminated in a fateful encounter that would forever intertwine her spirit with the cavern’s stony heart. Here, amidst the silent sculptures of nature and shadow, the layers of her tale fold into the echoes left by those who wander these hollows, seeking understanding in the blurred lines between the mystical and the divine. Let us drift into the stillness of Wookey Hole, where myth and earth hold an eternal, whispered conversation.This episode is hosted by Jessica Morgan.
