A group of children were playing near water when a beautiful horse trotted over. Excited, they attempted to ride the horse, but became stuck to its back.
The horse then submerged, taking the children with it into the deep.

I'm gonna tell you a story

Possessed by the devil's skew
From a shack near the swampland with a mud-pie brick
Marie stirred her witch's brew...

Lady Jeffreys haunted Montgomeryshire until she was bottled and cast into a pool by the River Severn near Llanidloes, Powys. Years later, the bottle was rediscovered and a small black object could be seen within trying to escape. The bottle was returned to the pool. #SwampSunday
