Ghost stories with melody this week, as we present two songs for Christmas. 'Krampus' is a carol-like ode to the demon of Christmas, and 'Half-Hanged Maggie Dickson' is a grim, funny ballad about a botched execution. As you can imagine, Joey Herzfeld's music is very much in Hallowed Histories' wheelhouse. We are honoured and more than happy to showcase the work of this Norwich based musician and actor, whose work can be found here

Thanks to Linda Sheppard and Stephen Parkes for their always invaluable help. Feel free to write to us at [email protected].
