Shona Cowie
Scotland was once full of magical beasts, absolutely full of them; bog
goblins, dragons, naughty fairies, brownies,
bony-backed-horsemen...all sorts. For the last 200 years they’ve
kept themselves to themselves but recently, with lockdown and humans
quietly stuck in their homes, the beasts have become braver, now
they’re back.
For your protection, storyteller Shona Cowie will introduce the most
fearsome of these creatures, provide case studies from successful
monster evaders such as Granny and wee jamie and will instruct you on
the most effective ways to avoid being squashed, trapped in a rock or
turned into a nugget.
