    Loremen S6Ep12 - The Ghouls of Greenwich
    Apr 17 2025
    We visit The Queen's House* in Greenwich, where a spiral staircase is haunted by a blurry ghost. And a stroll in Greenwich Park is no walk in the cake either. The park is home to early medieval barrows, disrespectful deer and very nasty things that like to drop from trees. *Don't worry, she was out.

    Apr 10 2025
    Nat Doig of Weird in the Wade (BBC Sounds) joins the Loreboys to (stand and) deliver the tales of some Bedfordshire highwaymen with absolutely superb names. Hold your ghost horses!

  • Loremen S6Ep9 - Dodge vs The Demon

    Loremen S6Ep9 - Dodge vs The Demon
    Mar 27 2025
    James spins another yarn from the moors of Devon. It's the tale of Reverend Dodge, a vicar so fearsome his name caused demons to turn and flee! Let's be honest, this episode isn't the first time the boys have sung the Ghostbusters theme in West Country accents. And darn it, it won't be the last! We may also have got popular puppet Hacker T. Dog's name wrong several times, but we swear it was an accident. We're just innocent men.

    Loremen S6Ep8 - The Man They Hanged Thrice
    Mar 20 2025
    James tells the true story of a man who escaped the hangman's noose, not once, not twice and not four times either. The life of John "Babbacombe" Lee was made into a silent film in 1912. Smash-cut to 2025, and James is retelling the tale with his usual cinematic panache. Yes, this is a James Shakeshaft Joint starring your two favourite Loreboys.

    Mar 13 2025
    Author Willow Winsham joins the Loreboys with a tale of a woman more witched against than witching! The infamous Ann Wagg simply could not move without being accused of witchcraft. Ironically, locals said she was casting curses that rendered them unable to move. Eventually, a lawman was called in. Will Ann Wagg face the wrath of her neighbours, or will an alleged witch win, for once? Order Willow's book The Story of Witches HERE.

  • Loremen S6Ep6 - The Exorcist and The Idol

    Loremen S6Ep6 - The Exorcist and The Idol
    Mar 6 2025
    Now this is a story all about how Donald Omand’s life got flipped turned upside down when he encountered a Chinese idol possessed by a murderous spirit. Alasdair introduces James to the so-called ‘Circus Priest’, a Scottish exorcist who fought the forces of evil everywhere from the Bermuda Triangle to a hotel room in Edinburgh. That is, if Dr Omand’s own account of the events is to be believed... If anything, we could say that this guy was rare.

    Loremen S6Ep5 - The Cursed Fortune, Cornwall
    Feb 27 2025
    Listener beware! Loremen is not a financial advice podcast, BUT if you are offered untold riches by an aged ghost who departs with a devilish laugh — that's probably a bad sign. James tells Alasdair a real chiller from Cornwall for our 250th episode!
