In this chilling episode of Dark Wales Tours, we uncover the astonishing true story of Glyndwr Michael — a homeless man from Aberbargoed, South Wales — who became the centrepiece of one of the most daring and successful deception operations in military history: Operation Mincemeat. When British intelligence needed to trick Hitler and divert German forces away from the real Allied invasion site, they turned to an unlikely hero… a man who had died alone and forgotten. But thanks to a forged identity, a briefcase full of fake secrets, and the approval of both Winston Churchill and Dwight D. Eisenhower, Glyndwr Michael’s corpse would mislead the entire German war machine — saving thousands of lives in the process. You’ll discover: • The Welsh roots of Operation Mincemeat • How Churchill and Eisenhower greenlit this eerie plan • Why Spanish autopsy fears nearly ruined everything • How the deception led directly to the successful invasion of Sicily • And how Eisenhower's visit to haunted Margam Park ties it all back to our modern ghost tours... From the shadows of South Wales to the beaches of Sicily, this is espionage, tragedy, and dark history at its most unbelievable.
