Christmas time has taken many traditions from the Yule celebration, but one that seemed to have been left behind was the tradition of sharing ghost stories around a roaring fire. As Yule is the celebration of the winter solstice, the darkest day of the year, it was believed it was on this day that spirits and ghosts would cross over into our world from theirs, and interact with the living. Thus the practice of telling telling ghost stories came to be. In this holiday special, I decided I wanted to bring back this tradition, and brought you all five ghostly tales, that may or may not be true, for you to enjoy.

Rumours and stories have been emerging for the past couple centuries of people still incountering these majestic beasts, peacefully living out their lives far away from any sort of human habitation. Could these ancient animals have somehow survived the past thousands years without us knowing? Listen in to find out...   Check out this link to see the website: Moonlight Lore Want to help the show?
