@ellenforkin.bsky.socialThe folklore custom to cover mirrors when a person dies in the household originated in #Orkney. The fear was the newly departed soul would be distracted by reflections instead of moving on - resulting in a ghost caught in the mirror 👻🪞 #SpookySunday #Ghosts #Folklore

@kgreenbooks.bsky.socialI’ve never seen anyone in the fantasy book space raving about Alan Garner on social media.

@david-castleton.bsky.socialThe White Lady statute at Glasgow's Southern Necropolis. #Folklore says her gaze turns people to stone though you can protect yourself by running round the monument chanting 'White Lady, White Lady'.
