The History Hive

Halloween Special

Lara, Phoebe and Katie

Join us this week for a special Halloween episode. We will talk about witch-filled stories, modern Tudor hauntings and the origins of Halloween itself.

Find us on social media, @Tudortalktime on all platforms. We would love to hear your thoughts or ideas for what we should talk about next!

Lara, Phoebe and Katie.
