On this week's episode of The Three Ravens Podcast, Eleanor and Martin venture to Dorset, birth-county of Thomas Hardy.

With the episode released on St Kenelm's Day, they chat through the macabre and fantastical story of his extraordinary murder, then leap onto horseback and gallop through the history and folklore of Dorset - from the Jurassic Coast and the annual Knob Festival to the Dorset Ooser, the Portland Mer-Chicken, the Shapwick Crab, and much more besides. Then it's time for the main event: Eleanor's telling of "William Doggett the Vampire Ghost."
