    Loremen S6Ep18 - The Legends of Lullingstone
    May 29 2025
    A walk in the park turns out to be no walk in the park. Alasdair introduces James to Lullingstone Castle, home to both an aristocratic orchid hunter and the spectre of Colonel Meates - surely one of the meatiest ghosts in Kent. Straying from the path, we encounter Percy Pilcher (the unfortunate aeronaut), Thomas Becket (the spiteful saint), and a Roman beefcake by the name of Titus Manlius.

    Loremen S6Ep15 - Van Gogh in Streatham with Ed Night
    May 8 2025
    Comedian Ed Night joins the Loreboys to share legends of Streatham in South London. These stories range from contemporary urban legends to tales from when all this were fields. Plus, a cameo from the Vincent Van Gogh of the art world: Vincent Van Gogh. Check out Ed's tour here. Content Warning: Self-harm, in reference to Van Gogh. We also discuss the case of the supposed "Croydon Cat Killer". And we're as tactful about it as we can be, but the name should give you a sense of the subject matter.

    Loremen S6Ep14 - The Beckoning Spectre of Llanuwchllyn
    May 1 2025
    The wind whistles. The rain pours incessantly. It is also night time. Alasdair shelters in the only place he can in this bleak moor - under a big stone. But who's that fella coming down the track? The figure with a lantern and a slouch hat (look it up, it's the one with the fancy brim, not a beanie). Yes, it's James of course, with a terrifying tale from Wales!

    Loremen S6Ep12 - The Ghouls of Greenwich
    Apr 17 2025
    We visit The Queen's House* in Greenwich, where a spiral staircase is haunted by a blurry ghost. And a stroll in Greenwich Park is no walk in the cake either. The park is home to early medieval barrows, disrespectful deer and very nasty things that like to drop from trees. *Don't worry, she was out.
