    The Three Ravens Podcast

    Three Ravens is a completely independent English myth and folklore podcast where we share stories, celebrate folk culture, and fall backwards through the hedgerows of history.

    Hosted by real-life couple Eleanor Conlon and Martin Vaux, and mostly recorded at our home in rural Sussex in southern England, Three Ravens is rated 4.8/5 from over 500 reviews and has grown by word of mouth care of our lovely listener community โ€˜The Conspiracy of Ravens.โ€™

    We release three episodes a week, on Mondays, Thursday and Saturdays, through which we explore folktales, folkways, fairy stories, folk songs, mythology, local heritage, seasonal customs and traditional beliefs.

    Our research inspires our retellings of stories from across history and culture, with episodes standing alone but connected together across over 500 chatty, mostly light-hearted, swear-free installments driven by passion, kindness and curiosity.

    Now ranked as an all-time Top 5 podcast across several categories by Goodpods, charting in the Spotify, Apple and Rephonic UK Fiction Top 10 across 2024, 2025 and 2026, if youโ€™re interested in ghosts, monsters, regional beliefs, and the things that unite us all, then join us round the campfire and listen inโ€ฆ 

    About our Bonus Series ๐ŸŒ™

    • Magic and Medicine – Eleanorโ€™s 26-part exploration of the history of magical belief and folk practice.
    • Three Ravens Bestiary – Martinโ€™s A-Z of mythical creatures, legendary monsters, and things that go bump in the night.
    • Dying Arts – Eleanorโ€™s 13-episode series about endangered and heritage crafts from their earliest origins to their fates since mechanisation.
    • Something Wicked – Martinโ€™s 13-part exploration of historic True Crime stories with folkloric twists.

    The Lang Fairy Tale Project ๐Ÿงš

    Launched in 2025 to help us bridge gaps between main series, we began by sharing readings from us of the iconic stories found in the Blue Fairy Book compiled by Andrew Lang.

    From the Red Fairy Book onwards, we have also spent time digging into the stories, their histories and relationships to tale types, and are engaged in an ongoing mission to celebrate the woman truly behind the 12 coloured fairy books โ€“ Andrewโ€™s wife Leonora, whose impact on childrenโ€™s literature and fantasy fiction cannot be understated.

    A Voyage To Lilliput Chapters 2 and 3 | The Lang Fairy Tales: The Blue Fairy Book (1889) Jan 26, 2026
    Show notes

    To conclude The Blue Fairy Book, we present the second part of A Voyage to Lilliput.


    Adapted from the first book of Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift, Gulliver is searched and measured by servants of the Lilliputian Emperor, before it is concluded that he may do service as a war machine in Lilliput's battles against the 'Big-Endians' of Blefuscu...


    If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.


    Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.


    They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.


    Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over ยฃ4,000 ($5,000+).


    Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.


    Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.


    The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.

    Show notes

    To conclude The Blue Fairy Book, we present a trilogy of episodes retelling A Voyage to Lilliput.


    Adapted from the first book of Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift, surgeon Lemuel Gulliver travels by sea, to somewhere beyond Van Diemen's Land.


    There he encounters a race of people only six inches tall - who also have some pretty strange beliefs...

    The Red Etin | The Lang Fairy Tales: The Blue Fairy Book (1889) Jan 22, 2026

    Brace yourself for one of the Lang's dialect stories from north of Hadrian's Wall: The Red Etin!

    The Black Bull Of Norroway | The Lang Fairy Tales: The Blue Fairy Book (1889) Jan 19, 2026
    Show notes

    A tale from north of the border...


    When the Black Bull of Norroway turns up to whisk the youngest daughter off to seek her fortune, she'd better not move a hand or a foot when the air turns blue...


    This story is written in dialect, so in the spirit intended by the Langs, we have narrated it in dialect, with apologies to our Scottish friends.


    If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.

    The Story of Prince Ahmed and the Fairy Paribanou Part 1 | The Lang Fairy Tales: The Blue Fairy Book (1889) Jan 12, 2026
    Show notes

    When three princes all fall in love with the same princess, their father sends them out into the world to find the most wonderful curiosities...


    An adventure that keeps unfolding, Prince Ahmed's tale is probably the longest in the Blue Fairy Book - so we've split it into two.


    If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.


    Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.


    They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.


    Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over ยฃ4,000 ($5,000+).


    Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.


    Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.


    The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.


    About Three Ravens ๐Ÿ”ฎ


    Three Ravens is a completely independent English myth and folklore podcast where we share stories, celebrate folk culture, and fall backwards through the hedgerows of history.


    Hosted by real-life couple Eleanor Conlon and Martin Vaux, and mostly recorded at our home in rural Sussex in southern England, Three Ravens is rated 4.8/5 from over 500 reviews and has grown by word of mouth care of our lovely listener community โ€˜The Conspiracy of Ravens.โ€™


    We release three episodes a week, on Mondays, Thursday and Saturdays, through which we explore folktales, folkways, fairy stories, folk songs, mythology, local heritage, seasonal customs and traditional beliefs.


    Our research inspires our retellings of stories from across history and culture, with episodes standing alone but connected together across over 500 chatty, mostly light-hearted, swear-free installments driven by passion, kindness and curiosity.


    Now ranked as an all-time Top 5 podcast across several categories by Goodpods, charting in the Spotify, Apple and Rephonic UK Fiction Top 10 across 2024, 2025 and 2026, if youโ€™re interested in ghosts, monsters, regional beliefs, and the things that unite us all, then join us round the campfire and listen inโ€ฆ

    The Princess on the Glass Hill | The Lang Fairy Tales: The Blue Fairy Book (1889) Jan 10, 2026
    Show notes

    If you have ever wondered what would happen if Cinderella was a story about a boy, well, we warmly present The Princess on the Glass Hill!


    A pleasing example of the Youngest Son doing things his elder brothers can't, the real question the story asks is, would marrying this particular princess be a route to happiness? Because... who is she, really?!

    The Brave Little Tailor | The Lang Fairy Tales: The Blue Fairy Book (1889) Jan 08, 2026
    Show notes

    Follow the adventures of the brave little tailor as he tricks his way to ultimate success, on the strength of a misunderstanding of the meaning of 'seven at a blow...'


    With dim-witted giants, a daft unicorn and a king almost as tricksy as our questionable hero, it's a jolly reminder that guts can come in any size.

    Trusty John | The Lang Fairy Tales: The Blue Fairy Book (1889) Jan 05, 2026
    Show notes

    Today's Lang Fairy Tale is a strange one: Trusty John, in which the behaviour of all of the characters is questionable at best!


    For what would be nicer than marrying your kidnapper? And why not shoot a horse with a pistol? Or, indeed, smear a statue with the blood of your children?!


    If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.
