About
I was born on 2nd November 1985. An Autumn baby, through and through. My love for the crisp leaves, cold weather, bonfires, pumpkins and dark nights have followed me all the way into adulthood. Being born so close to Samhain, has definitely influenced my love for all things spooky, and being born on the cusp of the Celtic New Year might explain why I have always been different and never felt like I have fitted into this world.

Samlesbury Hall
In 1612 Jane Southworth, Jennet Bierley and her daughter-in-law, Ellen Bierley, were accused of witchcraft by Grace Sowerbutts, the teenage granddaughter of Jennet. It was acclaimed that they had killed Grace’s twelve-month-old baby. Once the child had been buried, the three women exhumed the body from the graveyard, cooked it, ate it and saved the fat to rub into their bodies in order to change their appearance. The three accused women were incarcerated at Lancaster castle.
Leighton Hall
Surrounded by Yew trees which are traditionally found in graveyards, the old stone cross is a reminder that this was once a graveyard to the Catholics of the family who couldn’t be buried anywhere but on private land.
Tatton Park
Sir Thomas Egerton purchased this estate in 1598. Although the Egerton family had ownership of the estate, the old medieval hall was rented out to tenants. It took until 1716 when John, the great-great-grandson of Sir Thomas, built the first mansion on the land that the family actually resided on the estate.
