About this listen
Happy Halloween!
We have a treat for you - a tale that unfolds on the familiar paths of the Fallowfield Loop, the former railway line which runs through Manchester which now serves as a popular footpath.
In Pipistrello a night walk leads an ecologist and a group of students into the heart of something eerily familiar and deeply uncanny.
Meet Matt, reluctantly roped into leading a bat-watching excursion on an October evening soaked in rain and restless memories. What starts as a slightly damp, disappointing nature walk soon gives way to something far darker, as Matt is drawn into the shadows of the park - and the shadows of his own loss.
Pipistrello by Ella Sprakarn is perfect for a Halloween evening. Join us as we celebrate Halloween on the Loop, where the bats - and something else - finally come out to play.
Pipistrello was originally published in October 2024 in Lost Levenshulme, our new publication exploring local lore and landscape.
