On Sunday the 3rd of August I had the chance to attend the Black Shuck Festival in Bungay, a lovely town in East Suffolk. We briefly talked about the legendary Black Dog, Black Shuck, in Episode 5 of Season 6, but I wanted to dig deeper. I wanted to know more about its story, its impact on Bungay, and its cultural significance today. Plus, what goes into organizing such a fantastic event? Who's involved, and how do they pull it all together?

To get the scoop, I was lucky enough to chat with Chris Reeve and James Mayhew. These individuals not only know the legend of Black Shuck inside out but also understand the intricacies of putting together this fantastic festival.

We met at Bungay’s Museum, and I had the pleasure of interviewing them both. Their insights were fascinating, and I'm excited to share these interviews with you as we gear up for Season 7 of the Haunted UK Podcast.

Before we start, stay tuned for a special prize giveaway! Keep an eye on our Patreon, Kofi, and social media accounts for more details. We hope you enjoy this episode, and who knows, maybe we'll see you at the next Black Shuck Festival.

Presented by Steven Holloway

Recorded on Location at Bungay Museum, Bungay, East Suffolk

Produced by Pink Flamingo Home Studios

We’re calling all writers, storytellers and creators of tales of the Paranormal and Supernatural. Do you have a spine-tingling story that's too chilling to keep to yourself? If the answer is yes, then wherever you are in the world…The Haunted UK Fiction podcast wants to hear from you!!

Whether you're a published author, an aspiring writer, or someone with a natural gift for storytelling, this is your chance to share your work with a global audience of listeners who crave the eerie, the unexplained, the otherworldly.

We’re looking for original fictional short stories or novellas with strong paranormal or supernatural themes. Your stories can be suspenseful, mysterious, atmospheric, terrifying, thought provoking, even darkly magical.

If your story is selected, we’ll professionally narrate, record, mix, and master it into an audiobook-style format, then feature it on the show. You’ll get a copy of the finished production to use however you like—and you’ll retain full ownership of your work. There are no fees, no contracts, and no hidden jargon.

Your story deserves to be heard – whether it’s a tale that’s been haunting your notebook for years, or maybe something new that you’re finally ready to unleash – this is your chance to bring it to life.
