The Heaton Moor ghost once know as Noah Crossley met his untimely end in 1891.

This unfortunate soul is known only by his ghost name the Stockport shroud,
This unwanted and sorrowful soul was captured easily on the paths or Reddish Vale.

Every little ghost I make will now carry a tiny black cat on the underside.

The black cat has always been a symbol of mystery, magic, and a little bit of mischief, everything I love about creating spooky pieces.

From now on, this little cat will be my maker's mark for my Stockport Ghosts, quietly tucked into each ghost as a way to say, "This was handcrafted by EP Crafts."
Think of it as my signature... but much cuter.
So when you spot those big little eyes peeking out from under one of my ghosts, you'll know you've found an authentic EP Crafts creation. Stockport Alternative Market Worker Bee Markets Stockport Tourism

Brindlebark
Keeper of the Ring

An ancient Fáe who tends the hidden mushroom circles where the veil between worlds grows thin.
He carries spores instead of spells and speaks so slowly that saplings become trees before he finishes a sentence.
Travelers who respect the forest may find a healing mushroom in his hand, those who take more than they need may discover every path leading them back to where they began

Cernunnos altar piece

“Cernunnos lord of the wild, keeper of balance, overseer of the hunt and the circle of life, death and rebirth. Keeping watch on man and beast living in harmony.”

At last another project finished, it’s been in a state of flux for months.

“THE TRAVELER”
No one knows his real age.
Some say he’s walked out of forgotten futures and broken timelines. Others swear he’s just passing through.

He carries relics from every era he survives, a hoverboard from tomorrow, lost tech from dead civilisations, scraps of wars that haven’t happened yet. Every piece on his back is a story. Every scratch is a timestamp.
And somehow… he’s still smiling.

The mission never changes:
Keep moving. Keep collecting. Keep the timeline alive
