@VostokTwins As someone who started Folklore Against Fascism, I can tell you racists revel in that word these days. They are vampires who no longer fear sun.

@wickwoodcounty @GroupHookland I am almost always supportive of other blurred territories which operate in the mists between fact and fiction, but yes, I do have my favourites.

Lac is a word used in Hookland to mean the rising and falling flight of a bird, the flickering of flame and the motion of a boat cutting through waves. It also means ritual dance or ritual movement as used by both the witches and the cunning folk of the county.

They say faeries like fields bordered by blackthorn and whitethorn, that they favour those fields with luck. Of course they talk less about the fields faeries spit upon. To talk of sour soil is said to bring yourself to the attention of the fae and that’s rarely a good thing.

@LynneccaArden You have to be careful with faeries. Show respect. Show no fear. Show a sense of humour.

They say the Shire of Strangers is awash with witchery and blood magics. Tales are told of how the Devil visits to this day and some folk to do black dance in the footprints he leaves behind. – Dr. Bron, 1645

I will never retweet a book I have not read, nor a podcast I have not listened to. I won’t #FF unless I entirely rate a person or a timeline. That said, FF: @HorrifiedMag @SydMoore1 @dumbsupper @lazcorp @MariaStrutz @PhilH86835657 @odavies9 @amyhale93 @jamiedelano @amendlocke
