Episode Puritan’s Pit: The Secret Sermon That Never Ended Cover

Puritan’s Pit: The Secret Sermon That Never Ended

Hidden in woodland near Newton Abbot lies Puritan’s Pit, a shallow hollow in the earth once used for secret religious gatherings during the 17th century. At a time when Puritan worship was forbidden, dissenters met here in silence, their voices contained by the land itself. But over time, stories began to gather around the pit. Whispers heard after the sermons had ended. A preacher who vanished mid-gathering. And, in some tellings, the sound of a horse moving patiently through the surrounding trees. In this episode of Legends & Shadows, we explore the folklore and atmosphere of Puritan’s Pit, a place that feels designed to listen, and perhaps never stopped. A quiet, unsettling tale rooted in Devon history, where secrecy, belief, and fear may have left something behind.

Episode The Pixie-Led of Dartmoor Cover

The Pixie-Led of Dartmoor

Bellever Forest has long been associated with stories of people being pixie-led, drawn off the path by strange lights, sudden silence, and an unshakable feeling of being watched. In this episode of Legends & Shadows, we explore the folklore surrounding Bellever Forest on Dartmoor, where walkers have reported walking in circles, losing time, and sensing something guiding them deeper into the trees. Grounded in traditional Dartmoor pixie lore, this atmospheric episode examines the unsettling idea that some forests remember… and some do not let go easily.

Episode The Ghostly Smugglers of Teignmouth: Shadows in the Shaldon Tunnel Cover

The Ghostly Smugglers of Teignmouth: Shadows in the Shaldon Tunnel

In this eerie coastal tale, we travel to Teignmouth on the south Devon coast — a seaside town with a bright face by day and a shadowed history by night. Smuggling once shaped life here: silent landings beneath the red cliffs, coded lantern signals, hidden pathways, and dangerous encounters with Revenue men. And in the centre of it all lies the Shaldon Tunnel — a passageway carved through the Ness, long rumoured to echo with the presence of those who once carried contraband under cover of darkness. In this episode of Legends & Shadows, we explore the tunnel’s chilling atmosphere, reports of unseen footsteps, ghostly figures on Back Beach, a drifting phantom boat, and the long-standing belief that some smugglers never abandoned their routes… not even in death. Atmospheric, historical, and rooted in real Devon folklore — this is a story for listeners who love ghost tales, coastal myths, and places that remember. WHAT YOU’LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE * The true smuggling history of Teignmouth & Shaldon * How and why the Shaldon Tunnel was constructed * The atmosphere and reported hauntings inside the tunnel * Lantern lights seen beneath the Ness * The phantom boat of the Teign estuary * Ghostly figures and sounds on Back Beach * Why this coastline remains one of Devon’s most haunted stretches FOLLOW & SUBSCRIBE If you enjoy eerie storytelling and British folklore, follow the show on your favourite podcast platform and join me on YouTube for the visual experience.
