  • The Walk to the Hellstone
    May 18 2025

    This time, Henry, David, and Ross gather at Hardy's Monument, the sun sinking behind Black Down as they set off towards one of Dorset’s most mysterious ancient sites: the Hellstone on Portesham Hill.

    Once a Neolithic long barrow, the Hellstone was reassembled in 1866 after its mighty capstone collapsed. But history isn’t the only thing lurking among the stones.

    On the way back, as the shadows deepened and the air turned cold, they crossed paths with a man tormented by the presence of a large black dog. He spoke of other strange creatures seen roaming the darkness.

  • Beers, and Banter with the Buoys at the Red Lion
    Feb 7 2025

    Join Henry, David, and Ross as they get increasingly sozzled at the Red Lion pub in Weymouth.

    They originally set out to discuss the pub’s haunted history and the lifeboat disaster that launched from the station just around the corner. However, after too much rum, beer, wine, and whiskey, they ended up completely sidetracked, diving into the origins of nautical terms instead.

    We can also heartily recommend the steak and chips—it might be the beer talking, but it's probably the nicest pub we've been to in Weymouth in ages. Highly recommended!

    Grab your headphones, pour yourself a drink (or several), and enjoy this chaotic but entertaining virtual pub experience. Cheers!
