We’re so excited for the first day of the Unquiet Shores conference! If you’re attending, feel free to post using the hashtag #UnquietShores

And now Monica Germana is speaking to us about selkie soundscapes! 🦭 🌊 #UnquietShores

So excited to be at #unquietshores conference with Haunted Shores today!! Already had the pleasure of attending fascinating talks on androgynous sirens in Victorian Art, mythic retellings as fluid, and even talking seals

‘Nature will dissolve us’, Dr. Elsa Bouet, speaking now about oceanic intrusions and the horrors of the capitalocene in ‘The Beach House’ #UnquietShores

Loved attending the Shoreline Creatures panel which included a deep dive into selkies and seal voices. Duolingo just needs to catch up and launch its seal language option. (PSA I'm also now avoiding tap water) #UnquietShores Haunted Shores

Listening to Madeline Potter on Coleridge’s ‘The Rime of the Ancient Mariner’, the lens of wet ontologies, and entanglements of being through the grotesque #unquietshores

And now we’re all breathlessly watching the Piers End performance at #UnquietShores

Great to see Seán Martin’s ‘The Voice of the Sea: Sound in Dion Fortune’s The Sea Priestess’ short film. He mentioned after the non diegetic sounds making the film feel more ambiguous which undoubtedly lead to a haunting viewing! #UnquietShores

Really interesting talk from Sontje Schulenburg on ‘Subsea Sounds and Non-Human Manifestation in Julia Armfield’s Our Wives Under the Sea’. She suggested that the exploration of the sea was akin to that of a haunted house - such a compelling idea! #UnquietShores Haunted Shores

At the close of day 2 for the #unquietshores #unquietshores2025 conference organised by Haunted Shores and we are treated to something special. 🌊 Indlela Yokuphila: The Soul's Journey (ZULU) 🌊 youtube.com/watch?v=lNm-Yf…

Day 3 of the Haunted Shores #UnquietShores conference and time to listen to Bettina Charlotte Burger’s Contemporary Coasts paper on ‘The Essex Serpent’!

Couldn’t have imagined a talk more up my street than Julia Larsen’s paper on Eggers’ The Lighthouse as part of the Female Gothic 🕯️ #unquietshores

A popular engraving on coastal church bells... From a panel on storm-ringing and what happens when sunken bells ring of their own accord at #UnquietShores conference

The most epic finale to a conference ever: swimming in the sea in North Berwick #UnquietShores

Had a blast presenting at the #UnquietShores conference organized by Haunted Shores — thank you to the committee and to the fellow speakers for the excellent panels and talks we’ve had over the last 3 days! 🌊

A huge thanks to the team at Haunted Shores for running their beautiful and strange #UnquietShores conference at Edinburgh Napier this week. A wonderful three days of papers exploring coastal soundscapes, selkies, flooded villages, and a tidal wave of weird and uncanny content!
