Picture
Podcast host Mark Norman is one of only a few folklore researchers specialising in the field of Black Dog apparitions. He holds what it is thought to be the UKs largest archive of Black Dog ghost eyewitness accounts and traditions. In this episode, Mark draws on his archive to examine this phenomena which, despite sightings spanning nearly 1,000 years, is largely unknown by many people. In particular, the episode looks at connections between Black Dog ghosts and the wider European folklore of the Wild Hunt.

As usual an episode supplement in the form of an electronic magazine accompanies this show. It features a full transcript, with additional material, notes, photographs and illustrations and suggested reading and web resources.

Great podcast + valuable resouce! I'm a multi-published author of paranormal fantasy, writing Book 4 of the Grim Series, which brings the black dog, the Wild Hunt, and faeries into modern day encounters with mortals. I grew up on UK folklore from my Welsh grandmother and very old British books. Just discovered the Celtic Myth Podshow recently on Facebook --- loving it!

Thank you,
Dani Harper

Wonderful podcast Mark. I have been looking for a folklorist in this field. I currently work with our local CCTV (capitol community television) in Oregon and we would love to have you come on our Network to tell us more about this phenomena. Feel free to email me anytime.

Thank you
