We’re on a break at the moment, researching and writing our sixth series, but, to fill the gap, this is the second of six new compilation episodes containing a trio of stories from across our earlier series.

We’ve entitled this episode Three Tales of Friendship for obvious reasons. These stories are about pals – the bestest of buddies – or about forging friendships, because, in times like these, what’s much more important?

They include our first-lap Rutland story, Three Eggs a Penny, our first-lap Buckinghamshire story, A Promise Kept, and our recent Worcestershire story, The Malvern Ogre.

We really hope you enjoy them, and will be back with another new compilation episode next Monday. Or, if you're a Patreon Supporter, on Thursday with our Patreon Exclusive episode for January, and our new episode of the Three Ravens Film Club about 2020's The Night House, all before our February newsletter comes out on Saturday!

The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.

Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...

Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.

With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?
