General Witchfinders: The British Horror Podcast 🕷️
Welcome to General Witchfinders, a podcast dedicated to the dark heart of British horror.
If you’re passionate about Hammer Horror films, classic folk horror, Nigel Kneale’s Quatermass, and the chilling legacy of British supernatural cinema and television, this is the podcast for you. 🩸
Hosted by lifelong friends Ross, Jon, and James, General Witchfinders dives deep into the world of British gothic and folk horror.
We explore everything from Hammer Horror’s blood-drenched vampire classics—starring Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing—to the eerie folk horror landscapes of The Wicker Man and Nigel Kneale’s The Road.
Whether it’s cinematic icons like Dracula AD 1972 and The Curse of Frankenstein, or television classics like BBC Ghost Stories for Christmas, we unearth the films and series that shaped British horror. 🦇
We cover cult favourites including Quatermass and the Pit, The Quatermass Xperiment, and Quatermass II—examining how Nigel Kneale shaped British sci-fi horror.
And we shine a spotlight on the terrifying tales of James Herbert, from The Rats to The Survivor. 👻
Our episodes explore folk horror, gothic horror, and supernatural thrillers, dissecting films like Twins of Evil, The Reptile, Night of the Demon, and The Legend of Hell House.
We also revisit chilling television events such as Ghostwatch and Doctor Who’s The Dæmons and Horror of Fang Rock. ⚰️
Expect thoughtful commentary, dry wit, and nostalgic tangents about 1980s and 90s British culture.
General Witchfinders is your go-to podcast for British folk horror, Hammer Horror, Quatermass, and everything that makes the UK’s horror tradition uniquely haunting. 🪦
