Three Ravens is a completely independent English myth and folklore podcast where we share stories, celebrate folk culture, and fall backwards through the hedgerows of history.
Hosted by real-life couple Eleanor Conlon and Martin Vaux, and mostly recorded at our home in rural Sussex in southern England, Three Ravens is rated 4.8/5 from over 500 reviews and has grown by word of mouth care of our lovely listener community ‘The Conspiracy of Ravens.’
Our research inspires our retellings of stories from across history and culture, with episodes standing alone but connected together across over 500 chatty, mostly light-hearted, swear-free installments driven by passion, kindness and curiosity.

Ways to Listen
We also publish two Patreon Exclusive episodes every month for our paid subscribers who receive all of our episodes as soon as they are finished completely ad free.
The only exceptions to this are during breaks between series, when we release either episodes of our Lang Fairy Tales Project or our Novel-Length Projects.
Our weekly chatty explorations of the history and folklore of a place marked out on a map.
We started with the historic counties of England, progressed to Wales, and are currently venturing through America's Thirteen Colonies!
Week by week we take turns to retell a folktale from the region we are focused on.
These include tales of ghosts, mermaids, crafty witches, mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes and more, told in a variety of styles and tones.
Alternatively, if we are outside of a main series, we tend to release recordings of our Live Shows or episodes of our Lang Fairy Tale Project.

Our Story
Three Ravens was launched in March 2023 and within a year had become one of the Top 1% of podcasts globally.
We started with two £20 microphones (apologies for the early sound quality!) and a passion for folk culture and storytelling.
Little did we imagine we would find a global community of passionate listeners who we affectionately call "The Conspiracy of Ravens."
Having entered the Top 10 on the Apple Podcasts and Spotify UK Fiction Charts in 2024, 2025 and 2026, with a regularly engaged audience of 30,000 people across 40 countries, we are so excited about the future, as we are only getting started!
