The Curse of Brungerley’s Stepping-Stones

Where the River Ribble winds through the misty meadows of Lancashire, the village of Clitheroe holds its breath around an old superstition, a curse born at Brungerley’s ancient stepping-stones, where moss-covered rocks whisper of lost souls and a river sprite named Jenny Greenteeth waits, patient as time. For generations, the villagers have spoken her name in hushed tones, marking every seventh year with dread, as the water never forgets and the stones never forgive. Some call it folklore, others call it fate , but the river always takes its due.
