WIDDERSHINS means moving counter clockwise; this inversion of the natural order was associated with the devil and witchcraft. In this image #WITCHES delight in flying widdershins around North Berwick church with their broomsticks #FolkloreSunday #31daysofHalloween

THE YEAR WITHOUT A SUMMER In 1816 the first #vampire story in English emerged out of perpetual rain & darkness. The story writing contest in the gloom at the Villa Diodati also gave birth to that other archetype of Gothic heritage, Frankenstein’s monster #MythologyMonday

The Autumnal Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere occurs on the 22nd September at 7.19pm. It is the official start of Autumn. In ancient times it was celebrated as a time of balance when day and night are equal. #FolkloreSunday
