VOTE FOR THE THREE RAVENS PODCAST IN THE BRITISH PODCAST AWARDS HERE: https://www.britishpodcastawards.com/votingOn this week's episode of The Three Ravens Podcast, Eleanor and Martin head to Huntingdonshire, a historic county latterly absorbed into Cambridgeshire.With the episode released on both Apple Pie Day and St Augustine of Hippo's Day, they discuss the duties of an Apple Pie Princess and commiserate over the lack of hippo saints, then light their lamps and illuminate the history and folklore of Huntingdonshire - from The Witch of Warboys and the ghosts of Hinchingbrooke House to George Walpole's deeply eccentric pleasure cruise of 1774, the ancient Straw Bear festival, legends of the Fen Tiger, and much more besides. Then it's time for the main event: Eleanor's telling of "The Lantern Men."Learn more about The Three Ravens Podcast at www.threeravenspodcast.com and join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast.
