This month’s episode brings two folk horror tales written by local Nottingham storyteller and writer Mel Bhavsar.
‘Maria’ explores the feeling we have about wanting to take a walk in the woods and leaving our everyday modern life behind, but what if you don’t want to leave the forest? And more to the point, what if the forest doesn’t want you to leave either?
‘In the Dark of Wellbeck’ follows the thoughts of a project manager who finds himself mysteriously drawn into the underground tunnels at Wellbeck Abbey, thing is, was he acting under his own free will?
