GB. Wales. Bridgend. The Bridgend Suicides. Since 2007, dozens of young people have been found hanged in Bridgend, a town in southern Wales. Many of them knew one another, they were friends, neighbors, and family. The striking similarities between their deaths have confounded authorities and struck fear into the hearts of parents. Headlines splashed across the UK earned Bridgend its infamous nickname: "Death Town."
The site of Jenna Parry's hanging, who was found in 2008 by a dog walker hanging and on her knees on heathland, known locally as the 'Snake Pit'. Many of her friends left messages and butterflies in her memory.
