Episode 03 - The Hidden Deer of Torc Wood, Kerry | Soft-Spoken, ASMR Irish Folklore to Relax & Sleep

Tonight, we walk slowly into the woods near Torc Waterfall, Killarney, Co. Kerry, a place known for its beauty, but also for something less visible, a presence felt rather than seen. This is the gentle tale of The Hidden Deer of Torc Wood.

This is a calm, soft-spoken, ASMR telling of a traditional Irish folklore tale, recorded for rest, relaxation, and drifting into sleep.

There are no jump scares, no sudden sounds, and no loud music - just a steady voice and a gentle atmosphere.

Like all folklore, these stories change as they pass from voice to voice.

This is one peaceful telling, offered in that same tradition.
