The Wild Hunt: An In-Depth Analysis of the European Folklore

Описание: It is an omen of death and a procession of souls. It is a storm in the sky and a court on the wind. For centuries, one name has haunted the winter nights of Europe, the Wild Hunt. But what is this spectral cavalcade really telling us?

This in-depth documentary traces the Wild Hunt from medieval chronicles to living traditions, following its many faces across the continent, Odin’s winter ride, la Mesnie Hellequin, Herne in the forest, and Gwyn ap Nudd with the white hounds of Annwn. Our investigation treats the legend like a case file, listening to eyewitness reports, examining seasonal taboos, and mapping where the hoofbeats fall loudest, the twelve raw nights between Christmas and Epiphany.
