About Us
The Wyrd Side is a supernatural folk horror podcast created, written and produced by Finn Cresswell and Alexandra M. Barrow.
In the first season, Aiden Summers, an ardent believer in the supernatural, and Katherine Moore, a driven sceptic, take a deep dive into the legends that hide in the tangled brambles and ancient branches of the New Forest. From Will-o'-the-Wisps, to creatures from the bog and ghostly hauntings, the pair end up becoming deeply entangled in the dangerous truth lurking behind the myths and stories of the forest.
