Episode description

Often dismissed as myth or metaphor, the Banshee is more than just a ghostly woman who cries in the night. Her story shifts across time and region, tangled in ideas of ancestry, grief, and death itself.
This unsettling figure has followed generations through the centuries but just what is she? and what does she want with us?
