The Northfleet Horror: A Bone-Chilling Tale of Terror
Woah
I can’t be the only one who searched up “black dog?” After they saw one on there way home
8:02 I recognise that picture, it's from _The World of the Unknown: Monsters_ where I first learnt of this legend.
Ireland is not Britain
Oh I didn’t know you had this folklore creature in Sweden too. We have the “Gloson” or “Glosoen” or “Gravsoen” in Denmark too.
What happens to still borns babies? How is their soul protected?❤
that is a very good question, but I am afraid I don't know the answer. Sorry.
@@mythgreatbritain5634Thank you for your reply, i did have a dream about what might have happened still dont know for sure @mythgreatbritain5634
Great Britain? The pronunciation of Deirdre? Out straight away.
You people should learn to speak properly.
You people should learn how to pronounce properly,would be my take on it.
Salutations from a new fan!🤠⚜️🐊
I return your salutation, somewhat late I'm afraid. Sorry for the delay, I have been off the grid for a month or so. Hope you enjoy the channel.
We live very near Penshaw and were told it was Penshaw hill which it wrapped itself around
Have you been up there to look?
@mythgreatbritain5634 been up a few times
Thank you.
You're welcome!
I thought it was pronounced "DEER-DRA"
It probably is. I'm always worried I will pronounce something wrong...and I have been proven right.
I'm still subcribing. There should be more content like this on youtube.
Thanks. I'm trying to get more done, but life seems to be conspiring against me !!
You spelled it incorrectly in the thumbnail/title frames.
I'm always worried I'll spell or pronounce things wrong on the Welsh / Irish / Scottish stories...Sorry .
These creatures give me the creeps , there has to be something about them that's true no smoke without fire right?
Something must have happened in the past to give rise to the stories.
Thank you for sharing...
You are welcome.
Its a very sad story 😢😢
A lot of them are. Seem to comprise mainly of stories about imprisoning and raping women.
Thank you for telling these stories 😊
Thanks for listening
Wrong pronunciation of Deirdre
How should it be pronounced?

And over the years the wolves became wary of the humans, and learned it was best to avoid them.
I tend to agree.
thank you for a great tale and story
It's always good to hear from you. Thanks.
Whaaaa... But, wasn't I already here, just some minutes ago??
Havent got a clue....
Not a British myth
Thats a fair point. My apologies.
I named my boy OMEN. All black German shepherd. Planning on doing a full leg tattoo. Brainstorming ideas around these legends.
I love German Shepherds.
Every Geordie kid back in the day grew up to this legend
The good old days....do they teach it these days?

Never played, but sounds good.
The artwork shown in this video is just AMAZING! Thank you for sharing this information.
It's my pleasure. Im hoping to get more stuff out soon.
Did I read somewhere the Philipsons tried to stop it by digging up the bodies, decapitating them and throwing the skulls in a field where rocks near them got the shape of skulls, and can't be moved without screaming or bleeding?
I have looked to see if i can find that story but cant at the moment. Interesting if true.

Well, hello...
Carbon monoxide poisoning ? Was the boiler changed ?
A good question, and one to which I have no answer.
You have forgotten one important Fact: The young maiden, who lured the Afanc out of the water was crushed to death by the struggling beast, as it awoke, making her deed even more heroic due to her sacrifice.
Thankyou for that, I did not know.
wow this story is my favorite story
im from kuala lumpur in malaysia😅
I'm glad you enjoyed it, and greetings to Kuala Lumpur.
Delightful tale
Thank you for your kind words.
The White Bull isn't here any more - it's just a Mews of Houses - aye a Boggart could have fun there right enough. The stone along the way is still there though. I heard they planned to move it to somewhere. The whole area has links to little people possibly from the amount of Irish folk who came here as Navigators or Navvies to build the canals and railways and roads of the Industrial Revolution of which Lancashire had a large part to play. Good folk 'll be reet enough if they says their prayers and mind themselves to stay clear of bad places o' the night. See thee.
Thanks for the interesting reply !! Sad to hear the Bull is gone, but not surprised these days.
One of the underrated gems in youtube. I love your channel
Wow, thank you!
And he stole The Wierdstone of Brisingamen, even though he did not know that it was the spell that kept the knights and horses against the day that they were needed. It became the Bridestone of Bess Mossock, and then Susan.......
I will have to read the book.
About ten years ago I lived in the housing estate that sits next to Math Wood. Me and some friends went for a walk in the middle of the night after a few drinks once. Tripped over a tree stump. Been in there several times since as I grew up in the town. Never saw a well though.
A lot of these old wells were more like springs from what I can see, so probably disappeared over the years.
a nice creepy little tale suitable for halloween
Thanks.
