This week's spooky short for Halloween is taken from our series two episode on The Hairy Hands of Dartmoor. A stretch of the B3212 road outside Postbridge on Dartmoor has a gruesome reputation, for it is where the hairy hands lurk, ready to attack unwary travellers. In the episode, both Sam and I imagined what it would be like to have an encounter with these ghoulish, murderous, hairy hands. A Hand in the Darkness is a truly terrifying tale, perfect for Halloween. If you like the story, then make sure you listen back to the full episode to listen to Nikki's tale as well.
