Clive Campkin
4.9/5 (15628 ratings)
Description:The first in a new series of gripping and chilling novellas of British and Irish folk horror rooted in myth, mystery and real history. A quick to read and atmospheric story that lingers long after the last page.Footsteps echo across the marsh… and someone, or something, wants to be heard.In this atmospheric novella of modern British folk horror, ex-surveyor turned podcaster Ryan Parsons and his cantankerous companion Snifter Kingston journey to Mistley Marsh in Essex—where ghostly cries and phantom figures are stirring echoes of long-buried truths.What begins as a folklore investigation for Ryan’s podcast soon unearths a darker centuries ago, accused witches were marched to their deaths across these very wetlands. As diary fragments and parish records emerge from the murk, Ryan and Snifter uncover a legacy of injustice that refuses to rest.Armed with audio recorders, local knowledge, and sheer bloody-mindedness, the pair join forces with a priest, a historian, and a descendant of the condemned to confront the past. A vigil is planned. The names will be spoken. And the Marsh may finally fall silent.A richly immersive novella — ideal for readers who love folklore, hauntings, and quick but resonant reads.Includes a detailed summary of the real events and history that inspired the story.If you enjoy Andrew Michael Hurley, Adam Nevill, Michelle Paver, Robert Aickman, and Susan Hill—then The Paranormal Podcast Detectives series is for you.Part of an episodic series following Ryan and Snifter as they investigate supernatural tales across the British Isles and Ireland—each story steeped in myth, landscape, and mystery.Expect hauntings and grief tinged with British humour—and look out for the next investigation in Cornwall . . .Editorial Reviews“A meticulously structured and emotionally resonant novella that expertly blends historical research with atmospheric storytelling. Clive Campkin revitalises the British folk horror tradition by grounding the supernatural in documented trauma and real geography. The dialogue is crisp, the pacing lean, and the setting soaked in dread without a single cheap scare. The series potential is exceptional—Ryan and Snifter are an endearing and unlikely duo who could well become folk horror’s answer to Holmes and Watson.” Senior Fiction Editor, Grimoire House Press“This is the kind of novella you read in one sitting and then spend days thinking about. It’s folk horror for the podcast generation—where ghosts are real, yes, but so is historical erasure, and the scariest thing might be how easily we forget. The structure cleverly mirrors a true-crime investigation, but it stays grounded in emotional truth. Ryan and Snifter are a brilliant odd melancholy meets bacon butties. I’d recommend this to fans of ‘The Magnus Archives,’ ‘Lore,’ or any readers who crave storylines that stitch together landscape, legend, and loss.“ Page & Pitch Podcast“A hauntingly beautiful exploration of injustice, memory, and modern myth-making. Clive Campkin’s research into the Matthew Hopkins witch trials lends powerful weight to the story’s emotional arc, and he never sacrifices authenticity for drama. The final vigil scene gave me chills—not from fear, but from recognition of how history lingers, quietly demanding acknowledgement. I only wish more historical fiction dared to be this poetic and strange.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
