Description

"Come to-night," I heard the old man say, "come to me to-night into the Wood of the Dead."

Join Weird Walk for a new journey into the ghostly and bizarre, striking out from the shelter of the inn for the places where the path begins to fade, from the sublime wilderness of mountains, coasts and ravines to forbidden, ancient tracts of woodland.

Featuring disorientating classics from John Buchan and Algernon Blackwood alongside modern, thrilling (and sometimes violent) warnings to the intrepid from Lisa Tuttle and Dorothy K. Haynes, The Wayfarer's Weird leads you towards fae dangers, down lost tracks in time and deep into the liminal spaces of Britain and beyond.

Author Bio

Weird Walk began as three friends walking an ancient trackway across southern England wearing incorrect footwear. Since then, by walking the ancient paths, visiting the sacred sites, and immersing themselves in the folklore and customs of the British Isles, they have worked to promote the magic at the heart of rambling via their zine, social media, music and podcast. Their self-titled book, Weird Walk: Wanderings and Wonderings through the British Ritual Year was published in 2023.
