Planned possible future trips include:

2010

NOW CONFIRMED

Friday 17th - Monday 20th September. A long weekend in North-West England, following the trail and trial of the Lancashire witches!

2011

A return to Slovakia, to visit more of the many castles in the west, especially those once owned by the alleged so-called "Blood Countess" Elizabeth Bathory, who was indirectly honoured with the dubious title Countess Dracula by Hammer Films!

This will be our third visit to the area, and will certainly include another visit to the fantastic castle at Orava, which none of us who visited it in 2001 have ever forgotten. It was used by director F. W. Murnau to film some of the exterior scenes in the classic 1922 version of Nosferatu, and is little changed. A video (in Slovakian) here will give you some idea of what is to be seen there.

Later plans

A long weekend (or possibly week-long trip) to the Romanian capital Bucharest and the Black Sea coast area of Bulgaria, to visit (amongst many other places) Varna, the point of origin of the Demeter.
