JACK-O-LANTERNS Before the grinning pumpkins of Halloween the folkloric versions or Jack-o-Lanterns, named for the Irish myth, were terrifying; carved from turnips or swedes they had the appearance of shrunken heads #31DaysofHalloween #FairyTaleTuesday

If you plan to pick blackberries, hurry! Tomorrow, 29th September, is Michaelmas, the feast of St Michael the Archangel, who cast the Devil from Heaven. Folklore says the Devil fell into a blackberry bush and, in revenge, spits or stamps on its berries each Michaelmas, evermore.

Split image. Left, “Saint Michael and the Dragon”, a medieval illumination by the Master of Sir John Fastolf from a Book of Hours, c.1430–1440, showing the haloed archangel in red and gold armour standing over a black winged dragon (the devil) and piercing it with a lance. Right, a close-up photograph of a bramble laden with blackberries at different stages of ripening, from pale green and pink to glossy black.

for the well actually people: I have no idea if THIS specific black food has activated charcoal, but everyone should check before they eat a food which for eleven months out of the year is not black and suddenly in october it goes black.

BOOK OF DREAMS & GHOSTS 1897 Andrew Lang, best known for the coloured fairy books, was President of the Society for Psychical Research. The book poses some fundamental questions: Do you believe in ghosts? How do you define a ghost? One of the best looking ghost books. That cover! #SpookySunday

The holotype of a fossil boa from the Green River formation, Boavus idelmani, was a privately own specimen that was loaned out for study and casting back in 1938. When the owner died in the 1990's, no one thought about it and later no one could find it. Most likely it was tossed in a dumpster.

DVDs aren't low-tech. They're just things you can actually own, that won't disappear overnight, that don't require a monthly subscription, that won't suddenly get reedited, that won't start putting adverts in the middle and that won't sell your data to the worst people in the world.

THE MOWING DEVIL or 'Strange News out of Hartford-shire'. An English woodcut pamphlet from 1678 that narrates a tale of Satan mowing a field in Hertfordshire. The images of reaping & gleaning are reminiscent of #harvest folklore; also cited as an early example of a crop circle #FolkloreThursday

The Autumn Equinox is nigh, when day and night will be roughly equal length. The days will get shorter, the nights will get longer, and all coffee will be pumpkin spiced. This year, the equinox takes place at 1:06am BST on 23 September. Farewell summer, hello spooky season...🍂🎃

“The year, with fickle pulse, Weary of bloom, begins to live for fruit. Hope now is born at turning of the tide, And spreads her hue along the gauzy lines Of spider webs between the blades of grass.” — ‘The Turn of Summer’ by Augustus Radcliffe Grote (1841-1903). #AutumnEquinox

Autumn collage featuring bright red rose hips, a dew-beaded spider’s web, vivid pink and russet leaves, clusters of orange berries, acorns on an oak twig, a bracket fungus growing from a tree trunk, ripening blackberries and golden-yellow fern fronds.

The land becomes cold to the touch. The year turns towards restless ghosts and mists with a thousand tiny teeth. The dead in their dream incubation chambers come close to waking. They sniff the air for an alarm call of bonefire smoke and a rotting carpet of fallen apples. = #CLNolan

‘In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit.’ Today, we’re bringing out the first edition of Tolkien’s The Hobbit 🐉 It started off with a single sentence and became a well-loved children’s book, complete with illustrations and decorations from the author himself.
