The legend of The Wild Hunt is found across Europe in different forms; Originally led by Odin (Woden), in Britain it was said to be led by King Arthur or Herne the Hunter, but always it remained fearsome, and nowhere more than Dartmoor has the dread of the black hell hounds of the ghostly nocturnal hunt been greater feared. In Dartmoor the Wild Hunt is especially associated with a most peculiar and ancient oak forest called Wistman's Wood. In this video I visit the forest to see if I can encounter the hunt for myself.....the result was terrifying!

![Roots of the Anglos // History Documentary
This film explores the ancient homeland of the Angles and their beliefs through artefacts, symbols, stone circles and bogs. I discuss the meaning behind these objects and how they connect to old traditions and gods, inviting viewers to uncover timeless wisdom from the past. Filmed in Germany and Denmark, it reveals why wetlands were so important to the Germanic Angles who later invaded Britain and became the English people.
