Time Between Times Storytelling with Owen Staton

A simple hunt.
A quiet vigil in the branches of an ancient oak.
And then… a sound.
“Oh… Oh…”
What follows is a story of stillness… of fear… and of something that waits in the darkness, not to strike… but to watch.
So settle in, lower the lights, and let the world fall away for a while…
as we step together into that thin place between night and morning…
where not everything that walks the woods belongs to the living.

Time Between Times — where stories linger… long after the telling… and the silence that follows is never quite empty.

Tonight, we ride into the haunted heart of the Vale of Neath.

Into a land of black cliffs, hidden waterfalls and ancient forests where the mist curls through the trees like the breath of something old and watching.

In this episode, we follow the shadowed trail of Gwyn ap Nudd, the wild and terrible king of Annwn, as he rides through the valleys above Pontneddfechan with the Cŵn Annwn at his heels. We stand beneath the towering rocks of Craig y Ddinas, where fairy music was once said to drift from hidden caves, and where the people of the valley believed the Tylwyth Teg still danced beneath the moon.

This is a journey into the old Wales. Into the Wales of sleeping kings beneath the hills, phantom hunts in the darkness and ancient landscapes where the veil between worlds grows thin.

So light the fire. Listen to the wind in the trees. And if, somewhere in the distance, you hear the cry of hunting horns… perhaps do not answer.

Time between Times Storytelling with Owen Staton
The Wonder of the Wollaton Gnomes

There are places in Britain where the world feels… softer. Thinner. As though reality itself loosens its grip just enough for something older — something stranger — to slip through.

On a September evening in 1979, in the shadowed woods of Wollaton Park, a group of children stumbled into just such a moment.

What they encountered has never been explained.

Tiny figures. No taller than a child’s knee.
Pointed hats. Long white beards.
And impossibly… small, silent cars gliding through the twilight.

They came in numbers. Dozens of them.
Moving like a procession from another world.
Watching. Playing. Chasing.

For fifteen minutes, the ordinary world slipped away.

And when it returned… nothing was ever quite the same again.
In this episode, we step into the hush of evening, into the smell of wet earth and the deepening shadows, and we ask:

What did those children really see? Was this imagination… or encounter and why do stories of “little people” echo across centuries of British folklore?

This is not just a story.
It is a glimpse… into the time between times.

There are moments in this world… when something slips through.
Something ancient. Something uninvited. Something that does not belong to the neat, ordered version of reality we have built for ourselves.

And this week… I find myself standing at the edge of one of those moments.

🎙️ Time Between Times Storytelling Podcast

This week’s episode walks into the shadowed forests of Northern California… and into one of the most haunting mysteries ever captured on film—
the Patterson–Gimlin film.

For nearly sixty years, that brief, flickering footage has held its ground. A figure walking between worlds. A presence that should not be… and yet is.

But now…

There are whispers.

Claims.

Voices saying that the film—the legend—is about to be debunked.

And I’ll be honest with you…

That thought carries a quiet sadness.

Because if this story falls… then something else falls with it. Something harder to name. Something we rarely admit we still need.

Wonder.

So before the light becomes too harsh…
before the mystery is picked clean…

Come with me.

One last time.

Back to Bluff Creek.
Back to the silence of the forest.
Back to that moment… when something turned… and looked back.

Because perhaps the truth is not the point.

Perhaps the value lies in the question itself…

And what it awakens in us when we dare to believe…
even just for a moment…

that the world is still wider… deeper… and far more mysterious than we can ever truly know.

Time Between Times – The Spectral Lady of Waterston Road

There are roads we travel every day…
and then there are roads that remember us.

This week on Time Between Times, we journey deep into the quiet, coastal heart of Pembrokeshire… to Waterston Road — a place where the hedgerows whisper, the night air thickens… and something walks when it should not.

Locals speak in hushed tones of the Waterston Lady — a lone, spectral figure drifting along the roadside beneath the moon. Those who have seen her describe a pale glow, a chilling silence… and the dreadful feeling that they were not alone, even after she vanished.

But she is not the only presence bound to this lonely stretch of road.

Because sometimes…
when the mist rolls in from the Milford Haven Waterway…
a phantom carriage is heard before it is seen.
Hooves striking the tarmac.
Wheels creaking through the dark.
A journey that has never truly ended.
Is Waterston Road haunted by a restless spirit… or is it something older?
A place where the past bleeds into the present…
and the veil grows thin.
Step carefully…
and join me.

Written and performed by Owen Staton the voice of the firelit hour… where folklore breathes and shadows linger.

Because some roads are best avoided after dark…
and some stories…
refuse to stay buried.
