The small Cornish town of Mawnan is home to a small, quiet woodland that’s bordered by the sea and a churchyard. What is now passed through by Sunday walkers was once, and possibly still is, the home of the Owlman. 6 feet high, glowing red eyes and pincer-like claws. Owlman explores the woods in a new light, in which the Owlman’s existence is true and a way in which such tales are too absurd and comical to think otherwise. The soon-to-be book takes you through the woods step by step, unearthing the Owlman’s story as it goes.
