Echoes from the Loam

Welcome to Echoes from the Loam, where stories breathe, shadows speak, and every tale leaves a mark. I'm your Narrator Fauna Blakewell, I'm a mother, a witch and student of all things spooky. I'Il be exploring global tales of the weird and spooky. Each episode, we'll hear an original or a tale based on old faithful legends from lore that unearth the strange, the sorrowful, and the slightly twisted, from haunted objects to black dogs and things that go bump in the night. I've given you the first 3 installments as a gift, a welcome to my realm so to speak. I will be releasing new episodes weekly on a Tuesday morning UK time.

  The Seven Night Thief

  Sep 8, 202622 minS5

  Season Five is a season of original horrors, shaped from the soil of my own mind, from the shadows that linger just out of reach, from the places we go when we think we’re alone. And tonight, we begin with a creature that does not chase, does not roar, does not tear — a creature that simply waits, patient as winter, patient as grief, patient as the parts of ourselves we forget to guard. This is the story of the Seven-Night Thief.

  Episode #8

  One Legged Beast- The Fachan

  Aug 11, 202622 minS4

  Tonight, we turn toward Scotland, toward the heather‑choked moors and the low, brooding skies, toward a creature whose very shape feels like a curse spoken aloud: the Fachan — the one‑eyed, one‑armed, one‑legged terror whose scream is said to curdle marrow, a being so violently asymmetrical that even the old storytellers hesitated before describing it, as though naming something so unfinished might invite it to notice them from whatever hollow it crouched in.

  Hooves in the Heather- The Baobhan Sith

  Jul 28, 202630 minS4

  There are places where the heather grows tall enough to brush your knees and the pines stand in tight, listening clusters, their trunks dark and straight as watchmen, and if you walk there after sunset you might notice how the air changes, how it thickens with the faint sweetness of moss and the sharper scent of cold earth, how the silence feels less like absence and more like anticipation. They spoke of her in low tones, the deer‑footed night‑woman, the Baobhan Sith, the one who came when the night thinned and the moon hung heavy and the world felt just a little too close to its own bones.

  Episode #6

  The Joint Eater - Alp Luachra

  Jul 13, 202620 minS4

  we wander into one of Ireland’s strangest and most quietly horrifying pieces of folklore, a creature that does not rise dripping from the bog or stalk the hedgerows with glowing eyes or howl from the hills in the dead of night, but instead waits for the soft slackening of sleep, the moment when breath deepens and the mouth falls open, slipping inside with a patience older than the first cattle driven across the Connacht plains.

  Episode #5

  The Red Bride - the tale of Dearg Due

  Jul 7, 202621 minS4

  Tonight, we descend into the grave‑soil of Ireland, where betrayal does not simply wound but transforms, where hunger is not a curse but a consequence, and where the dead rise not because they were wronged by spirits or demons but because they were wronged by the living — and the living never paid enough.
