If you've ever wanted to listen to three weird, wonderful but
scientifically sound talks while sipping on a fine wine or beer,
Nerd Nite London is your place. Three speakers give
18-21-minute fun yet informative talks across all disciplines,
while the audience drinks along.
After our summer break we're back for Halloween with three super
supernatural talks by Nerd Nite favourites and a fascinating NN
newcomer.
Korean poet, scholar and educator Dr Melanie Hyo-In-Han unveils ghostly tales of restless women in Korean folklore - from a shapeshifting fox to a rebellious princess who, shunned as a female, reclaims her power as the mother of Korean shamanism.
Author, presenter and producer Deborah Hyde investigates the legend of the Werewolf of Hull aka the Beast of Barmston, or more evocatively... Old Stinker. A foul-smelling, furry and furious creature spotted terrorising the waterways of East Yorkshire for the last 300 years! Is there really a werewolf prowling around Hull?
Paranormal investigator and academic extraordinaire Chris French (as heard on Uncanny) asks if the excavations of Glastonbury Abbey were actually led by archaeologists from the afterlife. Did long-dead monks really communicate by automatic writing, or was it a book-sales boosting publicity stunt!? Or do archaeologists just love cider as much as Time Team suggests?!
Be there and be square.
All profits from Nerd Nite London go to charity.
For Halloween, we've chosen a suitably seasonal charity - The Bat Conservation Trust. Rather than something to be feared, these very special mammals are to be treasured and protected. Not only do they provide acroBATic displays at dusk, they feed on the bugs that bite us and eat our crops and plants.
The Bat Conservation Trust uses investigation, inspiration and education to learn more about bats, take action to help them and spread the word about how wonderful they are. Their projects include the Bat Helpline which helps get injured bats to the care they need.
