Willing & Fable hosts a double episode this week, with Rowan and Tracey covering “water demons” from around the world - Scottish Kelpies and Japanese Kappa. You do not want to run into this terrifying murder-horse or frog-like turtle creature while out for a swim.
Our advice when going near any foreboding bodies of water: don’t touch any horses and always bring a cucumber.
