    THE SLUAGH: Unforgiven Dead and the Black Host of Celtic Night | True Paranormal Stories & Folklore
    Nov 27 2025

    They ride the western winds in flocks. Not ghosts, not fairies, but something far older and far more feared. In Gaelic folklore, the Sluagh are the unforgiven dead: soul-snatchers, deathbed thieves, and sky-born wraiths cast from Heaven, Hell, and even the fairy realm.

I tuned in out of curiosity, just a little bedtime scary before I sleep. Calmly and beautifully orated stories of real life scares and folklore history by Sarah hooks you in and then the introduction of her son Tobias and their frank and humourous banter about the story told. This is well researched folklore, eerie short stories or experiences shared and a delightful conversation with mother and son. Brilliant listening.

Pure magic, mystery, scary and humor
