BBC Radio Ulster - Kintra, Plenty of Ulster-Scots “boo” in this week’s Kintra with yarns and poems from contributors old – and new

Light-hearted, creepy yarns and poems for an Ulster-Scots take on Halloween.

Boo and banter from the Kintra team with spooky goings-on in poem and tall tales.

There’s a light-hearted take on Halloween in this week’s Kintra with a new ghost story from writer Jen Herron. Robert Millar and Frank McLernon bring an Ulster-Scots flavour to a poem and a yarn about beings that scream in the dark, and there are plenty of laughs and blether from this week’s team of Helen Mark, Rab Lennox and Willie Hill.

As always, listeners are welcome to send their comments, feedback, details of an Ulster-Scots event they’d like to promote, or a good yarn to share – email the team at kintra@bbc.co.uk.
