FRESH WATER SIRENS: A History of Mermaids in England's Lakes

Mermaids. In landlocked lakes. Deep in the English hills. This is weirder than you think. Forget the sea. England's strangest mermaid legends are hiding inland — in cold, dark, peat-stained lakes that have no business harbouring creatures of the ocean. Three lakes. Three legends. One very unsettling thread. We're heading into the Lake District and the Peak District to uncover the siren of Derwentwater, the immortality-granting mermaid of Kinder Scout, and the cursed spirit of Black Mere Pool — where folklore and real documented crime collide. One man visited his local mermaid pool every Easter Eve. He died at 104. Draw your own conclusions.
