The episode opens with the 1828 poem "The Benighted Traveller", then moves to the history and tales of fairies and the Lambton Worm at Penshaw Monument near Sunderland. This episode's archives story relates a case of mistaken identity in 1848, followed by the second story of the day which looks at the history and ghostlore of Knaresdale Hall in Northumberland and the poor girl drowned in a pond for catching her brother and aunt doing naughty things... the episode then concludes with a 19th century superstition on how to cancel a betwitchment... if you don't mind getting sore knuckles...
