Behind Wales’ sweeping landscapes and proud traditions lies a darker, more unsettling story — one written in whispers, rumours, and cases that refuse to rest. Welsh Mysteries and Histories uncovers the crimes, disappearances and unexplained events that have slipped through the cracks of mainstream true crime. From chilling unsolved murders to baffling local mysteries, each episode explores stories that still linger in the shadows of valleys, towns and coastlines. But the unease doesn’t end with crime. Wales is a land shaped by myth, folklore and forgotten histories — tales that blur the line between legend and reality, and continue to haunt the present. Meticulously researched and told with care, context and deep respect, this is where Wales’ hidden stories are finally brought into the light.

    The Heroine of Fishguard: The Story of Jemima Nicholas (short)

    Send us Fan Mail In February 1797, French troops landed on the Pembrokeshire coast in what would become Britain’s last invasion. But while military history often remembers generals and strategy, one Welsh woman changed the story forever. This week, we explore the life of Jemima Nicholas — a local cobbler who, armed with little more than courage and a pitchfork, reportedly captured twelve French soldiers and became a national symbol of Welsh resistance. Who was Jemima Nicholas? What really happened at Fishguard? And why has history so often sidelined women like her? This is the story of rebellion, invasion, and the woman who refused to stand aside.

    The Newsagent Three: A Miscarriage of Justice w/ Michael O’Brien

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode, we explore one of the UK’s most troubling miscarriages of justice — the case of the Newsagent Three. Wrongfully convicted of murder in 1990, three men — including today’s guest, Michael O’Brien — spent years behind bars for a crime they did not commit. Their case would go on to expose serious flaws in the criminal justice system, from unreliable confessions to failures in evidence handling. Michael joins us to share his story — from arrest and conviction to eventual release — and the lasting impact it’s had on his life. This is a conversation about injustice, resilience, and the long road to truth. 📚 Resources & Links 📖 Michael O’Brien’s Book ✍️ Bed and Board Petition https://c.org/S5TdHWpL5V Where You Can Find Us Our brand-new website is now live!

    Anatomy of a Betrayal: The Murder of William Bush

    Send us Fan Mail SUMMARY On Christmas Eve 2023 in Llandaff, Cardiff, 23-year-old William Bush was brutally murdered by his childhood friend Dylan Thomas. Thomas stabbed Bush 37 times, including 21 wounds to the neck, in a frenzied attack at the home they shared. The night before the killing, Thomas stayed at his grandmother’s home in Rhoose before returning to Llandaff, claiming he needed to check on his dog. Evidence later revealed he had searched online for “anatomy of the neck” before the attack. At trial, Thomas admitted manslaughter under diminished responsibility but denied murder. In November 2024, a jury found him guilty of murder. He was sentenced in January 2025 to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 19 years. William’s family described him as a “loyal, funny, and caring” young man with a promising future — a life cut short by senseless violence that left a community reeling and a family shattered.

    From Bay Area Bombings to North Wales: The Capture of Daniel Andreas San Diego

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode, we explore the extraordinary case of Daniel Andreas San Diego, the American fugitive who spent more than two decades on the run before his dramatic arrest in rural North Wales in November 2024. San Diego, a committed animal rights activist and computer specialist from California, was linked to two 2003 bombings targeting companies associated with animal testing. Though no one was injured, the use of nail-packed devices and secondary explosions marked a chilling escalation in extremist tactics. When the FBI closed in, he vanished, eventually becoming the first domestic terrorism suspect placed on the FBI’s Most Wanted Terrorists list. For 21 years, he lived a ghostlike existence—surfacing in rumours from Hawaii to Europe—before quietly settling in Conwy, North Wales. Locals described him as a reclusive “American man,” unaware he was one of the world’s most sought-after fugitives. His arrest, carried out by armed officers with support from the National Crime Agency, stunned the community and made global headlines. San Diego now faces extradition to the United States, closing a chapter that blends radical activism, international manhunt, and the quiet landscapes of North Wales.
