S1.17: The Fairy & The Fire
Lauraβs case this week is a twisted tale of dark folkloric mystery and dangerous family secrets.
This week, Laura is digging into a very famous case from Irish history: Bridget Cleary. In 1895, Bridgetβs body was found buried in a shallow grave near the town of Ballyvadlea in County Tipperary. And as police begin to dig into Bridgetβs backstory, they learn that she had recently been accused of being a βfairy changelingβ β a dark, mythical creature that was believed to wreak havoc on human lives.
