Weird Walk is a zine dedicated to the joys of walking.
As the creators describe it, walking is an act of 'active engagement with the British landscape and its lore'. Stories form the path along which the latest issue of Weird Walk wanders: the tales of folk horror that lurk in children's literature, and a fascinating piece by Stewart Lee on Herefordshire and the writer Blanche E. Ward; there are also musings on the music of pipe organs, stag rituals and DIY stone circles. Contents include:
- Stag Ritual: Raise up thy horns
- Pipe Dreams: Vital organs
- This Land, There's Something Wrong: An interview with Kier-La Janisse
- Pan's Library: Folk horror for kids
- Around Herefordshire, by Stewart Lee
- DIY Stone Circles: Modern and ancient
And many more! Here is the perfect zine for anyone who has ever savoured the joys of experiencing the land on foot.
