HISTORICAL RE-RUN: THE PHANTOM REBEL (IN SEARCH OF THE HEADLESS HORSEMAN OF THE STAFFORDSHIRE MOORLANDS)
The story that originally inspired The Local Mythstorian project and a tale quite unlike anything else in the British Isles! The Headless Horseman of the Staffordshire Moorlands is one of the best known pieces of folklore in the region, but where did it come from? Tracing the story of the horseman back through 650 years of local history, via Victorian ghost sightings and Arthurian literature, we uncover the shocking true story of medieval murder that lies at the heart of the spectre’s inspiration.
Mythstoric Journeys, the hardback anthology collection from Eli, is available here!
