Fae, Ghosts, Ancestry & Old Cornish Magic Hello Witches Join me for episode one of Witch Week for Samhain. On this episode I am joined by the wonderful Freyja, The Corn(ish) Witch, for a deeply magical conversation exploring the folklore, spirits, and ancestral traditions of Cornwall — where the veil between worlds seems to shimmer a little closer to the skin. Together we wander through - How Freyja will be celebrating Samhain and honouring her ancestors. Her own ghost and fae encounters, and what they’ve taught her about the Otherworld. The Cornish fae — from the Bucca to the Piskies — and their role in local lore. The mysteries of Merlin, Tintagel and Cornwall’s most powerful magical sites. The Cornish Pellars, traditional cunning folk and healers of the region. How ancestral trauma can echo through our DNA The celebration of Allantide — Cornwall’s own festival of apples, ancestors and soul fire. Plus, a few lesser-known herbs to work with this Samhain season — rooted in Cornish tradition and spirit medicine. This episode feels like walking through mist on the moors — old stories rising up from the land, whispering through time. This one’s for those who feel the call of the old paths — for witches who remember the song beneath the soil.
