In this episode of The Femme Fatal, we unravel the story of Leonarda Cianciulli, the Italian soapmaker who murdered in the name of protection. Was she a grieving mother driven by superstition, or something far more calculated? We trace the history, the victims, and the wartime fear that fueled her descent. Then we talk movies and astrology.
