Wyrd Short: The Vampire of Croglin Grange
This week's episode is a special short non-fiction exploring the background of the legend of The Vampire of Croglin Grange. The story is a Cumbrian classic packed full of all the usual gothic tropes: ancient graveyards, helpless maidens ravished in their beds and a bloodthirsty ghoul. But is this really a folktale? This week, we'll be asking ourselves what makes a folktale and examining whether the vampire stories around Croglin Grange are more than just Varney the Vampire fan fiction.
