The Earl vs The Chained Oak
Beneath the rain-soaked hills of Staffordshire stands a tree bound in iron: the Chained Oak of Alton Towers. Some say its branches hold the deaths of a dynasty; others call it a tourist trap with roots in stolen land and old resentments. But when tragedy cut through the Talbot family, suspicion circled the woods: a poacher’s vendetta, a servant’s secret, a ghost in the nursery, or something much older, an ancient order guarding nature’s law. Who chained the oak and created the deadly curse?Plant Murder Ad free episodes, extras, discussion and polls:https://www.patreon.com/CleverthanA Clever > Than ProductionShow theme: Poetic Justice by John Humphrey PRSPublisher: 2496 Sound and Music Hosted on Acast.
