A Cheshire broadside tells how 5 maidservants conjured their future bridegrooms by making a ritual supper.
After reading the Lord’s Prayer backwards the door flew open & 5 ghastly gentlemen sat beside them. One girl apparently died from fright...

The Goblin Market, a poem by Christina Rossetti, 1862. Two sisters: one is tempted by the fruit at the goblin market & almost wastes away. The other saves her sibling in body & soul by resisting the goblins with their fruit, at all costs. #FolkloreThursday Img: A. Rackham, 1933
