#MythologyMonday: Meet Black Shuck, East Anglia’s ghostly hound! 🐾👻 This fiery-eyed beast haunts Norfolk and Suffolk roads, often seen as a death omen. In 1577, it famously burst into a Bungay church—scorch marks are said to remain to this day! #BlackShuck #EnglishFolklore

Black Annis: From English folklore, a terrifying hag with long claws and a taste for human flesh, said to dwell in a cave and snatch children. A dark, cautionary tale for those who stray too far. 🧙♀️ #BlackAnnis #EnglishFolklore #ChildSnatcher #DarkMythology #FolkHorror
Attended a talk last night by Professor Diane Purkiss, her incisive and acerbic style has got me feeling all witchy. www.english-heritage.org.uk/learn/histor...

A photo of Cole Mere in Shropshire from 2015, looking suitably moody. Ginny Greenteeth Mind your footing at the lakeshore It’s almost as if it’s deliberately slippery One flailing move and you’re Just close enough to touch Her hair, duckweed floating in the wet Limp, innocent-looking, lurking A silent flash of her wet pebble eyes Stinking emerald arms of plaited rope rise Mandolin teeth a bare grin to slice and dice Fish hook claws open to snag and grab And in the time it takes a trout To nab a mayfly You’re gone
A Poem a Day, Day 125: Ginny Greenteeth.
