It's “Show Your Face Friday” ✨
I’ve been posting witchy, historical folklore things for a while without properly introducing myself… so hi 👋
I’m Mel — just your average Hastings history-obsessed, folklore-curious Witch on the West Hill (also the name of my Substack...)I'm a tour guide, storyteller, writer, witch, and devoted servant to a beautiful cat called Hope.
Expect a mixture of: 🔥 local folklore & strange traditions:
🌊 atmospheric Hastings moments
📚 hidden history & storytelling
✨ witchy wanderings
🎭 the occasional festival, talk or curious happening
🙂 Lovely to meet you 🤝
