The sound emitted varies in pitch depending on the blade size and speed of rotation. By this means strange wailing sounds can be created. Little wonder that the spirits come flocking in to see what all the ghastly moaning is about.<\/p>\n<p>With thanks to Hannah Foxe who kindly gave permission for us to use this material from the Folk Museum website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I found this piece about Bull roarers on the web, and thought that the information would be of interest to others as well.
