A DISCOVERY OF SELWOOD WITCHES – BOOK TALK & GUIDED WALK

11 July @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
£25

Join author Emma Poole for an enchanting afternoon as she unveils the secrets behind her latest work, ‘Rentum Tormentum’.

This immersive book talk delves into the shadowy history of Somerset witchcraft, exploring the folklore and forgotten rituals that inspired her writing. Emma will share insights into her research process with local museums and the stories from 17th century texts that breathe life into her pages.

Following the discussion, you’ll take to the cobblestone streets of Frome for a short guided walk. Joseph of The Haunts Curiosity Shoppe team will lead you to specific points of interest featured in the book, connecting the narrative to the town’s atmospheric landmarks. It’s a must-attend event for history fans.

LOCATION: The Haunts Remedy Room & Pharmacy Kitchen at the Iron Gates, ground floor
