Review of Stigma

Stigma (1977 TV Short)
5/10
Stigma
21 December 2021
Katherine has moved into a cottage with stone circles.

As workmen move the stones. Something odd begins to happen with Katherine.

She starts to bleed uncontrollably. The workmen find an ancient skeleton on the site.

It seems this was once a burial ground for witches. Maybe Katherine is cursed.

There are elements of folk horror in this modern set ghost story.

The story only gets going once Katherine starts to bleed. She desperately tries to clean herself up but the blood will not stop.

The nudity seems odd and superfluous for the BBC 1970s Ghost Stories.
