Novembrrrrrr! 🥶

Wow you can definitely feel the chill in the air now can’t you? Happy November everyone! And firstly thanks for a wonderful October!  Samhain/Halloween was an amazing period for us as always, with no fewer than 11 events to ring in spooky season! From our regular Hexing to the launch of our brand new Magic, Mystics and Martyrs, to talks at Chelsea Physic Garden and the Amersham Paracon, Herstorical Tours has been busy and most events were sold out -  thank you so much to all our followers, old and new!  I even made it into Bloomberg! (see the article here)

Below are some photos to recap the month.

Burning Times!

For the past few years I have been giving my popular witch history presentation at the Last Tuesday Society and it returns again on the 17th! If you went to the Chelsea Physic Garden event that I did last month - it is the same presentation but I include a special performance here bringing to life the lady in the picture above, that is unique to the venue.  So do come along if you want to see that, plus you get a free Devil’s Botany absinthe with your ticket!

That’s it for this month! If anything else crops up I’ll update my social media so be sure to follow me there. I’ll be back mid-month for the Herstory blog.
