True Crime Sweden: Swedish Cases Told in English by Pernilla
An English-language podcast examining crimes committed across Sweden, written and produced by host Pernilla.

True Crime Sweden is an English-language true crime podcast that examines crimes committed across Sweden. It was created and produced by Pernilla, who also hosts the series, presenting both well-known criminal cases and lesser-discussed Swedish crimes for an international audience.
The podcast ran from 2017 to 2021 and produced 51 episodes of thoroughly researched material. Each episode was planned, researched and edited by Pernilla herself, giving the series a consistent narrative voice and allowing each case to be treated in depth rather than summarised in passing.
By working in English rather than Swedish, the series opens up Swedish criminal cases to listeners outside the country, offering a closer look at Scandinavian true crime for those who would otherwise have no access to the material in their own language.
True Crime Sweden is available on the major podcast platforms, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify and Podbean, as well as through the podcast's own website with an RSS feed, so true crime enthusiasts anywhere in the world can listen.
