In these three new historical mysteries, I tell you about the Pythia, the High Priestess of Apollo in Delphi, who for more than a millennium delivered sought-after prophecies in a state of frenzy - but the Oracle may have been more ancient than Classical Greece. The second story is about the myth of changelings, that is to say newborns, or young children that would have been exchanged by fairies, or trolls in the Scandinavian version. Why this belief, and how did it appear? I also added a touch of true crime with the story of Bridget Cleary, a woman murdered in 1895 because she was believed to be a changeling. The third story takes us from Russia and Germany to the USA in the 20th Century: who were all these women claiming to be Grand Duchess Anastasia, the youngest daughter of the last Tsar of Russia, miraculously alive? This modern mystery found an answer thanks to DNA, I tell you how, and a little bit about Eugenia Smith or Anna Anderson. Welcome to Lights Out LibraryJoin me for a sleepy adventure tonight.

On March 15, 1895, thirty-five-year-old Michael Cleary murdered his wife, twenty-six-year-old Bridget Cleary in their home in Ballyvadlea, County Tipperary. While terrible, the murder was just the last act in a series of bizarre atrocities committed against Bridget, whom her husband would later claim had been taken by malevolent fairy folk and replaced with a changeling.More shocking, however, was that the barbaric act hadn't been committed by one man alone, but by a group of rural men, including family. Was Bridget Cleary really murdered out of fear of fairies? Or had Michael Cleary just convinced himself of as much in order to commit murder?ReferencesBourke, Angela. 1999.

Described by The Observer as ‘a highly individual singer-songwriter', Maz O'Connor is a truly unique artist. Known for her haunting, emotive vocals and her poetic lyricism, her songs are most often short stories inspired by her love of literature, folklore and mythology. Her Irish roots, she suspects, inform her love of darker tales—those of heartbreak, longing and loss. She wrote her first song aged four, whilst making a ‘radio show' with a cassette player and her older brothers, and grew up singing old folk songs in her local Cumbrian venues. As a teenager, the songs of Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell inspired her to learn the guitar, and listening to Regina Spektor inspired her to write her first songs on piano. Winning a BBC Performing Arts Fund Fellowship in 2014 (once won by Adele) brought Maz to wider attention, and later that year she was nominated for a BBC Folk Award for her first album, ‘This Willowed Light'. Maz has since released 3 further albums, toured the U.K., Europe and Eastern Canada, played live sessions on BBC Radio 2 and 3, and appeared at major U.K. festivals, including Glastonbury. Her latest album, 'What I Wanted', was co-written and co-produced with composer Will Gardner and released in May 2022. It's an ambitious song-cycle set in the city at night and explores themes of anxiety, capitalism, sexuality, spirituality, and the search for connection in an age of consumerism. 'What I Wanted' has been widely praised, and called ‘an excellent thing' by Mark Radcliffe of BBC 6 Music and BBC Radio 2. ‘I'm interested in connection,' she says, ‘that's what music is to me. Creating a moment between myself and an audience member, a moment that's intimate and real. I'm always seeking that.' The Wife of Michael Cleary   The Wife of Michael Cleary is a new folk musical inspired by the true story of Bridget Cleary. Bridget was a talented dressmaker from Co. Tipperary, Ireland, who in 1895 was burned to death by her husband and family because they believed her to be a fairy changeling. She was 26 years old. A trial ensued shortly afterwards and the story was widely covered in the press in Ireland and Great Britain. It has previously served as inspiration for music and literature, but this is the first time the story has been addressed in musical theatre. The Wife of Michael Cleary explores faith and superstition at a decisive moment in Irish history, whilst also shining a light on the pressing contemporary issue of violence against women. https://mazoconnor.com/

Trigger Warnings for murder and domestic violence.In 1895, Bridget Cleary was a happily married, fashionably dressed, well-respected woman in rural Ireland. She made extra money for her family by working as a seamstress and delivering eggs, and she loved fairy stories. And then one day, Bridget found herself living in one of those stories. But unlike a fairytale, in real life the stakes are much, much more dire. Today, Janey is going to tell Max (and Alex!) the harrowing tale of the real-life murder of Bridget Cleary, whose husband became convinced she as a changeling.Source: The Bizarre Death of Bridget Cleary, the Irish “Fairy Wife”, by Maria J.

Emily brings us the case of Bridget Cleary today.  Bridget was an Irish woman accused of being a changeling (a type of fairy) by her own husband in 1895. On this episode, we learn that the way we think of fairies today was A LOT different from how people thought of them a few hundred years ago.

Oh boy, if this weeks episode seems a little off to you it is because Alissa believes that Britt has been swapped with a changeling and is diligently working on cracking the case - and eggs, to return your dear podcast host to you by next week.At first, everything seems perfectly normal, Alissa kicks off the episode with a listener response to her hot take that Princess Mononoke and movies of the like are the film version of melatonin. The listener reveals a helpful tip that will undoubtedly make not just movies, but all of life more enjoyable.Then Britt (or rather Brittabus, the changeling posing as Britt) recounts the horrific tale of Bridget Cleary, an Irish woman accused of being a changeling. Her husband, Michael Cleary, went to extreme and gruesome measures to return rid himself of this changeling fairy in hopes that his beloved wife would return. Brittabus goes on to detail the decidely undelightful history of changelings and the role of myth and monsters in coping with life's unpleasantries.Alissa then promises to lift the mood with some last words of the dying, but, perhaps unsurprisingly, fails to do so. Inspired by the last moments of comedian Sam Kinison, who is rumored to have spoken to God as he lay dying on a desert highway, she relays eye-witness accounts of those who were present for some memorable last moments.Brittabus  once again takes a swing at dragging this episode from the pits of despair with the tale of an Irish Banshee. But upon reflection, realizes that it may not have a banshee that two wee Irish lasses stumbled upon in the woods that day.And, then, as an inspirational send-off,  the ladies urge you to meditate upon the last words you will utter upon this green earth.So, enjoy and, Haunt Y'all Later.Support the showWe want to hear your stories!Please e-mail them to us at Skeletalespodcast@gmail.com or leave a message at 302-689-DEAD (3323).As always thanks for listening and Haunt Y'all Later!

In the late 1800s Bridget Cleary was burned alive by her husband, was it because the "real" Bridget had been stolen by evil fairies and had been replaced by a changeling or was it because the you ng and beautiful wife was independent and not financially reliant on her husband in late Victorian Ireland..?

"Are you a witch or are you a fairy or are you the wife of Michael Cleary?" In the 1800s, Ireland had seen its fair share of upheaval and changes. But one thing that was a common thread for many on the island was the belief in the "Good People" or Fairies and also in Changelings, human-like fairies left behind in another's place. They could be fickle creatures, creating trouble for some while bringing luck for others. And when Bridget Cleary got sick in 1895 with what seemed like a simple cold, folklore and real life collided with dire consequences to Bridget.
