Ghosts, Witches, and Whispers: Exploring Otley's Haunted History

 Welcome to The Bell Witch Podcast 'Witching in the 21st Century' 

In episode 37 of the Bell Witch Podcast, Swailes The Friendly Green witch welcomes Daisy of Turnip Fish Theatre  who recently started a ghost walk business in Otley. Swailes shares her excitement about discovering Daisy's tours, which explore Otley's haunted history. Daisy, with a background in scriptwriting, discusses her transition to creating ghost tours and shares eerie local ghost stories and haunted locations. 

“The Otley Ghost Tour runs every Saturday evening at 6.30 and 8pm. Meet your ghoulish guide by the clock tower in Otley’s Market Place and brace yourself for a spine-chilling 1-hr walk around the seemingly quaint streets of this medieval town.”

Your ghoulish guide will regale you with entertaining tales of Otley’s most haunted hotspots, teaching you about the people of Otley through the ages, and how many of them are still thought to linger… The tour concludes with a free drink at one of Otley’s most haunted pubs.”

Swailes also reflects on her experiences at a late summer witch camp and hints at future podcast projects. The episode is filled with engaging anecdotes, emphasizing the importance of storytelling in preserving local folklore and history.

This is the last episode of TBWP for series 1, and will be back early September with new witchcraft wonders and fascinating Moot Loot Guests.
