Bridget Cleary was killed by her husband who believed she was a witch or possessed by a fairy changeling.
The story of the torture and murder of Bridget Cleary in Tipperary in 1895 by her husband, who believed her to be a witch or possessed by a fairy changeling,is the subject of Joe Ambrose’s novel Loves Dark Light . It is also the inspiration behind the concept album ‘Tryal’ by The Host, a band featuring members of Horslips, Eamon Carr, Johnny Fean and Charles O’Connor.
Joe Ambrose describes 26 year old Bridget Cleary as a typical peasant housewife from the Victorian era. Following a brief absence from her home, Bridget fell ill with a cold. Her cousin Patrick Dunne decreed she had been snatched by a fairy and a changeling left in her place.
