Britain's waters are older than it's roads, it villages, and even it's written history. Long before charts and warning signs, people told stories to explain what lurked beneath their still surfaces.

In this episode of Mythic Albion, we wade into the dark folklore of Britain's rivers, lochs, and coasts to uncover the legends of its most feared water spirits.

We encounter the Kelpie, the shape-shifting water horse of Scotland that lured riders to a drowning death. The Grindylow, a lurking presence beneath ponds and mill waters, waiting to snatch unwary children. And the Mermaids of Britain's shores - not gentle singers, but omens of storms, shipwrecks and loss.

Through dramatized storytelling and reflection, this episode explores why water has always been a boundary between worlds, a source of life, and a force of quiet terror. These spirits were not merely monsters, but warnings - shaped by grief, danger and respect for a power humanity could never fully tame.
