Three of Britain’s darkest legends in one terrifying book.
Dare you read about the dangerous and frightening characters of the infamous water witch, Ginny Greenteeth, the Selkies of Scotland and Black Shuck, the devil dog of the 1500s? They will make you think twice about diving into strange waters – who knows what creatures may be waiting under the surface, or swimming with the seals? And, it’s better to avoid old churches in isolated areas – someone or something might be watching you!
British folklore is some of the darkest Europe has to offer, with water witches lurking in the deep, waiting to drag innocent children to their doom, selkies, both cruel and kind, cutting through the waves by the rugged Scottish coastlines, and devil dogs roaming the forgotten roads and untrod paths of rural England.
Perhaps, by reading these short, scary stories, you may learn to avoid these fiendish foes.
But probably not.
