Britain… An ancient kingdom with legends of violence, cruelty and torment in it’s blood.
Join your podcast hosts: Ross, Jon and James, as they bravely tread where few would dare.
Witness their journey into the horrific history of British horror.
General Witchfinders is a podcast where three middle-aged men talk about the good old days of British Horror (and an apologetic bit of sci-fi).
We cover Hammer Horror, Pulp Horror Novels and Niche Cult TV.
Ross and James have been friends since the age of 13 having bonded at school over Blackadder, Red Dwarf, Star Trek and other such stuff when there wasn’t much else good on the telly.
Then, during the heady days of Britpop and Cool Britannia Ross went to art school in Cardiff where he met Jon and they messed about making things for 3 years with James popping to Wales to visit whenever he could.
James and Ross had a semi popular podcast called Creeping with Armstrong which ran for 10 years when there weren't many podcasts around and people were less fussy about quality of sound and content.
Jon went a bit stir crazy over lockdown and foolishly suggested they start a horror podcast, and is flummoxed that he is still doing this 25+ episodes later.
James is now a Teacher, Ross is a Designer of sorts and Jon is an Artist and Photographer.
They are…THE GENERAL WITCHFINDERS
After Lockdown our diaries became more difficult to sync up. But to allow for some of us to carry on catching up regularly and our listeners to continue on getting something to listen to we span off a side podcast.
FOLK IN HELL
Inspired by a brilliant documentary…
WOODLANDS DARK AND DAYS BEWITCHED
(Available on shudder)
https://woodlandsdarkanddaysbewitched.com
…we watch and review films that loosely fall within the ‘Folk Horror’ sub-genre.
“Typical elements include a rural setting and themes of isolation, religion, the power of nature, and the potential darkness of rural landscapes. Although related to supernatural horror films, many derive their horror from the actions and beliefs of people rather than explicitly supernatural elements; the primary focus of the stories is often upon naïve outsiders coming up against these forces.”
In these episodes, we are not restrained to any country of origin or era. Also, we are often joined by guest from other podcasts to get views from other voices and other countries.
You can find these episodes on the same feed as the mothership show.
