Corfe Castle: Blood, Betrayal & The White Lady

Episode 65

Join Andy and Craig on Wyrd Wessex as they unlock the chilling secrets of Corfe Castle after dark, given exclusive after-hours access that brings a thousand years of bloody history to life.

Go beyond the usual visitor experience, led in part by local blacksmith and historian, Alistair, as they delve into the castle's most hidden corners, including a special ascent to the King's View Tower, an area unseen by the public for centuries!

From the chilling murder of a boy king at its gates to the defiant stand of Dame Mary Banks against Cromwell's army, discover the brutal sieges, royal prisoners, and unspeakable acts that soaked this iconic fortress in sorrow and defiance. Explore the village's hidden haunts, from pubs with poltergeists to shadowy figures in ancient tea rooms, before venturing inside the castle walls to encounter the lingering presence of King Edward the Martyr and the legendary White Lady.

Are these just echoes of the past, or do the ancient stones of Corfe still hold a powerful, unsettling energy that only reveals itself when the living have gone home? Tune in and decide for yourself!

Stay Wyrd!
