A folk trail around pubs of Exeter, telling tales of the devil on Dartmoor and the ghosts of the West Country.
The Spirits are awaiting and the Dewer rides from the wisht wood to sweep across the Moor!
Best to gather in a group, cross your hosts palm with silver (a £10 will do in these modern times) and walk the old paths of Tavern to Tavern huddling close to hear strange tales to keep the devil at bay and invite in the old spirits of heart & hearth.
What is it? A folk tale tour with a twist, going from pub to pub in fancy dress to hear strange tales and drink a dram!
When & Where? starting at 6.30 at Exeter Central traveling accross Town from venue to venue to hear a tale. (the rout will be announced as we get our venues)
Cost? £10 (please note: fancy dress is not obligatory but IS fun! And any form of pirate fancy dress will have us donate half your payment to the RNLI through Exeter Pirate Day!)
