Herne The Hunter

[poliphilo]

 Herne the Hunter is the presiding spirit of Windsor Great Park and leader of the wild hunt. In The Merry Wives of Windsor he is spoken of as a malevolent ghost, in Ainsworth's Victorian novel, Windsor Castle, he features as a tricky demon,who interferes in the affairs of Henry VIII, and in the 1980s TV series Robin of Sherwood he inspires awe and dispenses wisdom. He has affinities with Pan, Cernunnos, Odin, the Horned God of the Witches and the Christian Devil.
