This is the first episode in our run of Christmas related stories and we begin with the Krampus.
Written and read by Elliot Randall Wood, Head Curator of Alexander Maberry's Museum of Strange Things, this ancient fable tells the tale of a creature as old as evil itself who, when the nights are at their longest, visits naughty children and dishes out punishments as freely as Santa gives gifts.

Conwy's Little Mermaid - Read by Erwyd le Fol, the Conwy Jester
Long before Hans Christian Andersen put pen to paper to write his seminal work "The Little Mermaid" a little town on the North Wales coast was the scene of its very own mermaid tale.
The Conwy Mermaid is a 900-year-old legend that pre-dates the invasion of Wales by the English King, Edward 1st.
The best place to listen to this story is within The Jester's Tower, Conwy.
