Five Minute Mythstoria - The Ghost of Molly Leigh
Today, Molly Leigh is remembered to residents of Stoke-On-Trent as the Witch of Burslem, but the true story of her life and death suggest she was far from the malevolent force the label suggests. Famed locally for her 'cross-ways' grave in St. John's churchyard, could it be that the particulars of her final resting place actually relate to one of the most dramatic April Fools pranks in British history?
In a series of bite-sized episodes to bring season 1 of the podcast to an end, Five Minute Mythstoria looks to share snap-shot tales of curious history from across Cheshire, Derbyshire and Staffordshire.
