Talking to the dead doesn't always go to plan, and sometimes spirits from the past can shock us in unexpected ways.
In Victorian Britain, psychic mediums were plying their trade up and down the country, and in these first-hand accounts from Cardiff and beyond we get to relive the spooky action through the words of those who were there.
If you're brave enough to take a seat at the séance table, join Mark Rees (Ghosts of Wales) as he investigates the weird and wonderful on the Ghosts and Folklore of Wales podcast... if you dare!

When the Devil walks the earth, he often does so in disguise.
The 'Evil One' appears takes many forms, but possibly the most diabolical is when he appears as one of us - as human. But whatever forms Satan takes, in Welsh folklore at least, there is usually a wise old woman or crafty farmer to test their wits against his.
Explore the Devilish lore in these centuries-spanning tales with author Mark Rees (Ghosts of Wales) as he investigates the weird and wonderful on the Ghosts and Folklore of Wales podcast... if you dare!

Why are the lost souls of sinful spirits trapped in the wild waters of Wales?
And ghosts aren't the only things lurking in the wells and streams - there's water-ogres, guardian dragons, giant serpents, the mischievous fairy folk, and even a tenuous link with Tolkien and Bilbo Baggins.

A phantom horseman, a baby-stealing ghost, a warning from the future and even miniature fairy-sized spooks.
In this episode we explore a series of short but sweet and seemingly unconnected supernatural tales collected from the wilds of Wales. Can you unlock their paranormal mysteries? And should they serve, to quote MR James, as a warning to the curious?

The history and folklore of Midsummer warns us to expect the unexpected during that the longest day of the year.
Over the days that span Midsummer's Eve and Day, or the Summer Solstice, or St John's Eve and Day, or Calan Haf, Welsh folklore tells us that paranormal activity and strange apparitions might be encountered.
This episode explores some real-life traditions that range from the heart-warming to the spine-chilling, from the fire festivals of the ancient druids of Britain to those which sound like they're straight out of a folk horror movie like the Wicker Man or Midsommar, including:
Fire-jumping fertility rituals, a death omen that comes for supper, predicting the future with divination, haunted wells, and even some fox men and women (yes, werewolf foxes!)

How do you stop a ghost that causes the police to faint and threatens to chop off peoples' heads?
That was the problem facing the residents of Cwmbran in Victorian Wales when a special reporter arrived to investigate strange reports of supernatural activity.
The locals were gathering into ghost-hinting gangs to track down the spirit, but even bullets couldn't harm this paranormal form that stalked the industrial suburbs.

Can dogs sense spirits in the home? What about hell hounds? And if so, can they protect against these ominous death omens?
Corpse dogs are a combination of two more-commonly encountered types of phenomena: death omens, such as the corpse candles (y canwyll corff in Welsh), and supernatural dogs like the dreaded gwillgi.
When they enter a property, sometimes in packs, they will often be invisible to human eyes, but not to the heightened senses of our four-legged friends. When the hell-hounds are about, our psychic pooches become Scooby-Doo-like ghostbusters!

A paranormal investigation on the ghost ship so haunted the crew would not stay on-board.
When a captain took control of a new navy vessel he laughed off the warnings that it was haunted. Little did he realise that he would soon experience all manner of poltergeist-like activity, and things really escalated when a full-body apparition manifested while at sea.
What was the cause of this paranormal activity, and had the phantom come to a gruesome end as some suggested?

A Victorian "Ghostbuster" faces the battle of his life as he attempts to banish an evil spirit causing havoc in a Welsh village.
When a shape-shifting demon starts smashing up property and chasing people home in a Flintshire, the locals turn to a well-known man of God who might be able to help - a lay preacher known as Griffiths of Llandegla.
But this is no ordinary demon, and it will take all of his skill and experience to outwit this deadly foe.

What is the Ghosts and Folklore of Wales with Mark Rees podcast?
The "Ghosts and Folklore of Wales" podcast explores Welsh ghost stories, lore, myths and legends.
Launched by author and journalist Mark Rees in early 2020, this weird and wonderful podcast takes a fascinating look at the country's countless curious subjects by combining decades of research and insights from many books and articles with long-lost tales from dusty old tomes.
Ranging from "real life" encounters with the uncanny to fantastical tales from the Mabinogion, new episodes are uploaded on Thursdays (weekly most of the time, biweekly when book and media deadlines are looming) and feature everything from pesky poltergeists to fire-breathing dragons.
Along with the regular stories you can also expect the odd special guest, an occasional "live" ghost hunt, and all sorts of crazy ideas. Seasonal specials include the dark and Gothic Halloween (Nos Calan Gaeaf) traditions of old, to everyone's favourite skulled-skulled Christmas visitor, the Mari Lwyd herself.

When a shape-shifting demon starts smashing up property and chasing people home in a Flintshire, the locals turn to a well-known man of God who might be able to help - a lay preacher known as Griffiths of Llandegla.
But this is no ordinary demon, and it will take all of his skill and experience to outwit this deadly foe.

When a malicious fairy swaps your baby for a changeling, how do you break the curse?
Across Wales, England, Scotland and Ireland, people have reported finding their children stolen and replaced with strange babies that were different in many ways - some were sickly, some failed to grow, others were intelligent far beyond their years.
But after the tylwyth teg have made the switch, is there any way of reclaiming your offspring? Or what happens when unscrupulous parents actually try to swap their unwanted children for a fairy?

Ghostly forms wail and scream in the night, while supernatural visitors offer words of comfort and terror.
But what connection do these spirits have with the living, and what message - if any - are they trying to communicate to their nearest and dearest?
While these paranormal visitors can offer comfort to their friends and family, they can also, as we’ll discover, be even more terrifying than poltergeists and other malicious entitles.

A Welsh magician who defied witchcraft laws and turned detective in the 16th Century used his powers to defeat murderers and robbers.
Huw Llwyd was famous - some might say infamous - for his fantastical acts of legerdemain during the reign of James VI and I. He could outwit the evilest of villains, and then party hard afterwards in the local tavern.
A real-life character whose life is shrouded in fanciful legends, join author Mark Rees (Ghosts of Wales) as he explores his origins, attempts to separate fact from fiction, and recalls two of his most famous cases including the diabolical Cat Witches, who lured weary travellers to their doom.

When ghost hunters explore a "haunted" castle in Carmarthenshire they uncover an old mystery that leads to a gruesome tale of a man hanged on a nearby hill.
Spooks and spectres had long been reported in the mystical streets of Carmarthen, home of Arthurian wizard Merlin, but by the late Victorian age they were starting to fade away.
When a group of curious reporters decide to go on a night-time paranormal investigation to see what spooky stories remain, they discover that not all of the ghosts and goblins have disappeared at the ruins of Castell Moel (Greencastle).
